TrailHopper Tours

McLaren Vale South lays peacefully only 40 minutes south of Adelaide and commands a stunning display of new and old across its verdant coastal lands. This blend of innovation and tradition extends to the many cellar doors, vineyards, and wine styles, and ensures you will find McLaren Vale South to be unforgettable.


Scenery

Resting along the rugged coastline of the Fleurieu Peninsula, the hilltop views of McLaren Vale South extend over the valley and right to sea. Verdant, rolling vines fill the landscape as you travel to wineries which offer spectacular vistas and even better wines.


Wine

Continuing to blend old and new, McLaren Vale South is renowned as much for its traditional wines as it is for its newer styles. With newer styles like Sangiovese and Barbera nestled amongst the more traditional Shiraz, Grenache, and Cabernet Sauvignon, there is sure to be something for everyone in the beautiful McLaren Vale South.


Food

McLaren Vale South boasts a variety of fine and varied food options to satisfy every taste and budget. You can find gorgeous and tasty platters of local produce or fine dining or make a stop at any one of the many bakeries or cafes in the McLaren Vale Township. You can even pack a picnic and sit on the hilltop at Kay Brothers and soak in the serenity.

At TrailHopper, we are grateful to give you McLaren Vale as if you had driven yourself.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Our ‘Golden Rules’ for a Great Hop-On, Hop-Off Tour

 Hi there! In anticipation of your upcoming tour, we need to emphasize our ‘Golden Rules’ to help you get the most out of your day. Please read these carefully, and if you’re organising on behalf of a group, please share or convey them to the others. ________________________________________ Golden Rule #1 – Alcohol Safety & Duty of Care Obviously, our tours involve alcohol, and unfortunately a very small minority of passengers may have the wrong idea about what is appropriate behaviour on our winery tours! So here are the facts: • This is not a ‘booze cruise’ and our bus is not licensed. This is a leisurely day out among beautiful wine regions, and we urge you to act respectfully. • All passengers must read and sign our Duty of Care agreement prior to embarkation. You can view the agreement here. • Include food and water in your planning to ensure a comfortable and safe experience. ________________________________________ Golden Rule #2 – Bookings Are Now Required at Some Venues for All Group Sizes In recent years, many wineries have changed how they operate, introducing seated tastings and reducing capacity. As a result: • Some wineries now require Essential bookings, while others are Recommended for TrailHopper guests. • Details are in the ‘Tasting Fees’ and ‘Food Options’ sections (Pages 3–4 of your InfoPack). • For large groups (7+), the tour format consists of 2 pre-booked group winery tastings (1 hour each), followed by a pre-booked long leisurely lunch (2 hours) – 3 stops in total. ________________________________________ Golden Rule #3 – How to Read Your Timetable Our timetables work beautifully but can be tricky at first. Here’s what you need to know: • Maximum potential: 4 x 1-hour stops of your choice. If you take a long lunch (2 hours), you’ll have 3 stops in total. • To maximise your number of stops, follow the timetable order (top-down, not bottom-up). • The last column of times indicates final pick-up times for each venue. • Feel free to stay longer at a favourite stop if desired—just catch a later bus to continue your day. ________________________________________ We truly hope this information helps make your day a memorable one, and we can’t wait to have you aboard! Many Thanks,

TrailHopper Team
