What to expect

Join a relaxed half-day small group tour from Adelaide and explore the stunning wine region of McLaren Vale. Departing from the Hilton Hotel, you’ll travel through the picturesque Adelaide Hills, keeping an eye out for local wildlife such as kangaroos and koalas.

Your afternoon includes guided tastings at two McLaren Vale cellar doors, where you’ll discover a range of local wines and enjoy the region’s relaxed vineyard setting. On the scenic return journey, enjoy a coastal drive through Glenelg, where you’ll have time for a seaside walk and sunset views. You can either stay in Glenelg for dinner and return on your own or take the included return transfer back to Adelaide.

The driver spoke just enough, played some great music, and was knowledgeable about the area. We enjoyed both wine tastings and were able to buy some great wine to take home. Left the tour at Glenelg, which was the perfect place to have dinner.

Great tour visiting a couple of wineries. Plenty of samples at each and tour group was a good size. Option to get off at Glenelg rather than the city to catch the sunset which we did and really enjoyed. Great tour guide and friendly staff at both wineries. Highly recommend

Frequently asked questions

What time does the tour start, and how long does it run?

The tour departs at 12:30 pm and runs for around five hours. It’s an easy afternoon escape that still leaves your morning free.

Where does the tour depart, and is hotel pickup included?

Meet at Bus Stop T1, directly in front of the Hilton Adelaide on Victoria Square. Hotel and cruise-terminal pickup are not included, so please make your own way to the meeting point before departure.

How many wineries will I visit, and are the tastings included?

You’ll visit two McLaren Vale cellar doors, with guided wine tastings included at both. The exact wineries may vary with the day’s itinerary, so there’s no need to book the tastings separately.

Is food included on the tour?

Wine tastings are included, but meals and snacks are at your own expense. A cheeseboard may be available to purchase at one winery, and Glenelg has plenty of places to eat if you decide to stay after the tour.

Can I stay in Glenelg instead of returning to Adelaide with the group?

Yes. You can finish the tour in Glenelg for dinner, a beach walk or sunset, then make your own way back to Adelaide by tram. If you prefer, simply rejoin the coach for the included return to the city.

How big is the tour group?

This small-group tour travels in a 20-seat coaster, with a maximum of 20 guests. It keeps the afternoon social and relaxed while still giving you space to enjoy each stop.
