Barossa Valley – Wine, Food & Iconic Scenery
Join us on one of Australia’s most celebrated wine trails, exploring the Barossa Valley your way. This rich and rewarding region is renowned for its world-class wines, historic villages, and outstanding regional produce—making it a must-visit for wine lovers and food enthusiasts alike.
Scenery
The Barossa is a patchwork of rolling vineyards, stone cottages, and fertile farmland. Historic towns such as Tanunda and Angaston sit alongside iconic cellar doors, where the views from inside the tasting rooms are just as impressive as the scenery along the road. Old vine vineyards, heritage buildings, and wide open landscapes define this unforgettable region.
Wine
With over 150 wineries, 550 grape-growing families, and some of the oldest vines in the world, the Barossa is truly one of the great wine regions globally. Famous for Barossa Shiraz and Eden Valley Riesling, the region also excels in Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon, Mataro, Semillon, and fortified wines.
Food
The Barossa is a gourmet capital, offering something for every appetite. From iconic food destinations and casual winery dining to bakeries, cafés, cheesemongers, and picnic spots, you can tailor your lunch to suit your tastes and budget—or simply relax and graze as you go.
Freedom to Tour Your Way
This hop-on, hop-off experience gives you the freedom of having your own car—without the responsibility. Stay longer where you’re enjoying yourself, skip stops that don’t suit, and hop back on a later bus when you’re ready. With the help of our Info Pack and timetable, planning your perfect day is simple.
