Highly recommend - Great 1/2 day Wine Tasting & Coast Tour yesterday. Guide excellent with plenty of local knowledge. Also did the Taste of Barossa Premium Tour with this company a few days ago. Highly recommend. Well run, comfortable small coach on both tours. 5 stars.

I wasn’t planning on wine... - I wasn’t planning on wine tasting in the area because I didn’t want to do it solo but I am so glad I decided that it was important for me to experience it. Our guide was fantastic and the small group was friendly and felt luck to have visited the cube and Glenelg, two stops outside the CBD that were on my wishlist to visit. It was a lovely afternoon and just the right amount of wine and right amount of time To get an understanding of what McLaren Vale has to offer.

More fun than u can poke a stick at - Booked this tour when I had a free afternoon in Adelaide and what a great way to see alot in a little time. Marty was a wealth of information and made our day worry free and most enjoyable. Great music with an impromptu sing along finished the day on a great high

A great way to spend an afternoon - We chose this tour as only wanted to spend half a day wine tasting. It was very well put together so that you could travel through the beautiful McLaren Valley, taste several different wines at two wineries and get to see the unusual cube buliding. The tour is a small group tour which is ideal to meet fellow travellers and discuss the wines that you are sampling. The tour stopped off at Glenelg, we stayed there to have our dinner as there are so many eateries available. The ocean is very calm and warm so if you enjoy swimming you can take the opportunity for a dip. if you choose to stay at Glenelg and not return on the tour bus, the tram is easy and reasonably priced that brings you back to the city. (if you are Australian and travelling on a seniors card the tram is free). We had read the reviews of the whole day tour and realised that we wanted to spend more time at Hahndorf than allotted. We decided to catch the public transport bus from the city centre to Hahndorf, which was very easy and cheap. This allowed us several hours to have coffee, lunch and walk to the Beerenburg farm. there is a bus stop right outside the farm that brings you back to the city.

Excellent afternoon trip - We had a great time. Clive was at the pick up point early so we were able to get out of the heat . He gave us a good description of the trip and was a good driver .we visited 2 winerys at the first Haselgrove where we tasted 5 wines and we had the platter that Clive organised (meat and cheese $50) plenty for 2 and excellent quality. We then went to Chapelhill winery via the cube, where again we had 5 wines again excellent staff. The return trip was via Glenelg where some of the party stayed to enjoy the beach we returned to Adelaide about 6.00 and excellent trip well run by Clive .

An Adelaide Gem! - Great experience. We actually selected the full day itinerary which included a tour of the city and a long stop in the historic village o Hahndorf. Terrific insights into the history and development of Adelaide from a seasoned professional guide/driver. The wineries were lovely and very informative. This tour is a real gem.

Half day wine trip to McLaren Vale - I did this trip on 27 Dec 2025. This is a very good trip, good value for money. I have the opportunity to do wine tasting at Haselgrove and Chapel Hill on that day. I also have time to stop and take photos in front of the iconic d’Arenberg Cube. It is very worth doing for a person who is interested in wine but has limited time. Before this trip ends, the driver has given us twenty minutes to walk around Glenelg (near Glenelg Jetty). I appreciate this arrangement because I have the chance to walk on the Glenelg Beach. Very good trip and beautiful memory.
