About this tour
A bespoke eight-hour private tour through Australia's Barossa Valley, visiting three distinct wineries spanning traditional winemaking to experimental varieties and premium producers. You'll taste alongside a knowledgeable guide, break for a multi-course lunch paired with regional wines, and return to your hotel without driving. The itinerary flexes to your interests—want to skip the obvious stops and hunt smaller producers instead, you can.

What to expect
Your guide collects you from your hotel in the morning and drives you into the valley's wine country. At the first stop, you'll walk through a historic winery learning how Barossa made its name—expect older vines, classical methods, and wines that reflect the region's heritage. The second winery shifts gear entirely: younger winemakers experimenting with unusual grapes and techniques that challenge Barossa conventions. After working your palate, you settle for lunch at a quality venue where each course pairs thoughtfully with local bottles. The final stop showcases a premium-focused producer rounding out your tasting. Throughout, your guide contextualises what you're drinking and the valley's evolution.
