From the pristine beaches of the South Fleurieu Peninsula to the iconic d’Arenberg Cube in McLaren Vale and the charming village of Hahndorf in the Adelaide Hills, this tour offers a little something for everyone.
We begin by traveling through Glenelg, following the scenic coastal road to Moana Beach, pausing along the way to take in breathtaking ocean views.
In the heart of McLaren Vale, the renowned d’Arenberg Cube awaits—a striking five-story architectural marvel, envisioned by winemaker Chester Osborne. Explore the whimsical Alternate Realities Museum before heading to the top floor, where you can enjoy sweeping views over McLaren Vale, Willunga Hills, and Gulf St Vincent while savoring a selection of d’Arenberg’s finest wines.
From here, we meander through picturesque countryside, passing charming villages on our way to Hahndorf—Australia’s oldest surviving German settlement. Having worked up an appetite, you’ll enjoy a hearty two-course lunch paired with a complimentary beer or wine at a local Hahndorf restaurant.
After lunch, there’s plenty of time to wander through the village, exploring art galleries, museums, boutique shops, and cozy cafés. A visit to Beerenberg Farm is a must—breathe in the delightful aromas of their famous jams, condiments, and gourmet delights.
As the day winds down, we take a leisurely drive back through the stunning Adelaide Hills, soaking in the beauty of the region before returning you to your accommodation.

It was a wonderful day with lots of great wineries, food and most importantly, an expert guide.
Would thoroughly recommend!




A shortage of staff at one of the wineries unfortunately resulted in slow service and a reduction in wines offered.


























He is so informative & told us just about everything that there is to know about the locations we visited & the sights that we saw.
The beautiful lunch was an added bonus by fast tracking the queues & the wine tasting was awesome aswell.
All in all, a great day out in the region, would definitely do it again & recommend to others.
Just opened & sampled the jam today, it was beautiful.
Thanks Danny, see you again next time we are in your neck of the woods.

The wineries were well selected and the lunch very delicious.





We did the tour in a group of 6 and I highly recommend taking small groups tour to have the opportunity to meet people and chat. Also, the pace is much more chill.
The meal included was lovely!
I highly recommend this tour!
NB: you should have breakfast before doing the tour because not every winery will serve you something to eat with the tasting.



Tasted wines from small, family run wineries which were handpicked to our taste.
Barossa Valley is very pretty with some stunning views. It feels a little of the beaten track and yet is only an hour away from Adelaide.
We had a very knowledgeable driver and learned a lot about Adelaide and the Barossa.
Absolutely loved it.




Our guide, Vince, was very friendly and knowledgeable.
A good time was had,



I did enjoy the tour but found not nearly enough time in Hahndorf. We only had 1 hour to explore Hahndorf which was not enough time and felt very rushed. The reason we picked this tour was mainly to see Hahndorf.
I would have preferred to have the extra time at Hahndorf instead of visiting the last winery which was only for 30 minutes.
I have some mobility issues and found getting on and off the bus okay, but having an extra step would have been a lot better.

The 4 wineries we visited were all lovely. I did in particular like the last winery we visited as we could pick any 4 wines of our choice which was a lovely change.
I would like the winery company to consider people with not the same mobility as other guests and park where it is more accessible instead of having to climb a lot of stairs. And maybe another step to get into and out of the bus.

Can highly recommend this tour








Being a small group, Danny was able to personalise the tour a little, like stopping at a chocolate shop in town along the way. Thanks for a great day out, Danny!

Awesome lunch included & Chateau Yaldara was our favourite with the lovely Susan making it a really fun tasting.




The driver was friendly and we had a small group so he suggested that we consequently had more flexibility than usual. He also stopped at a cheese stop (where we got a tasting of four cheeses) and a chocolate store (that didn't have a proper tasting available, it was only really a shop with a window into its production floor).
He never suggested we were choosing in between those stops and the fourth vineyard. If that was presented as an "either or" option, there is no doubt I would have chosen the fourth vineyard -- especially since the tour was supposed to cover the tasting fees for each of the four vineyards + lunch, but instead we only got three vineyards + lunch.










The lunch was superb, great quality food and perfect portions for lunch. Oh and a cheeky cheese tasting too.
Glad we chose this over one of the cheaper tours.




Wineries were well selected, route was well curated and it was easy to organise wine purchases and shipping particulars. Lots of valuable local knowledge too!
Will be recommending to friends back home!




Danny the driver and guide is super informative, knowledgeable and friendly. Wineries are smaller ones and staff there so supportive in explaining the wines etc .
And the lunch if a proper meal in a quaint town with another glass of wine.
Thanks Danny for a truly wonderful day






Thanks, Danny, for a perfect tour of the Barossa.




There was one other couple on the tour this day and we visited 4 wineries with a couple of extra stops to see some places of interest. Our guide also dropped us back at Glenelg beach so that we could get dinner and watch the sun set over the ocean.
I would highly recommend this tour, loved McClaren Vale and the wines it had to offer, with the experience made all the better by our knowledgeable guide.
