What to Expect
Spend a relaxing afternoon uncovering the best wineries that the Swan Valley has to offer. With guaranteed small groups, you can get away from the crowds and off the regular beaten tourist path where you will meet the locals, taste some amazing wine and cheese, and enjoy a more intimate tasting experience.
Over your memorable half-day winery tour, visit four amazing Swan Valley wineries that are all family-owned, and have been hand-picked for their quality wines and historic contribution to the region. The wineries that are selected can change daily to ensure that you get the best possible experience on each day, and at each winery. Enjoy taking the time to discuss the wines - sometimes with the winemaker themselves – so you can get to know the locals and learn about the Swan Valley's history as Australia's second oldest wine-growing region.
All wine tastings are included in your afternoon, including reserve and award-winning wines, and you will have the chance to sample well over 30 wines - everything from a Verdelho to a Durif to a Muscat. Most of the wines you will try are produced in small batches, so the only place you can find them is at their cellar door.
The afternoon is set at a relaxed pace so that we have plenty of time for questions and discussion, and you will also enjoy a delicious afternoon cheese platter to complement your wine tasting at one of the wineries. While we may be serious about our wine, you can rest assured this is definitely a fun adventure discovering the real gems of the Swan Valley with fellow wine lovers.

Our wine-based tours can cater to most dietary needs if these are provided to us before the tour. We can't guarantee that we can accommodate any requests made on the day.
Our food-based tours may not be able to cater to your exact dietary needs, as these tours revolve around specific dishes, but if you have an allergy or intolerance we can certainly guide you to the foods that are suitable for you to eat.
IMPORTANT: If you have an allergy or medical condition (even if it's not food-related) please add it to the booking notes. It's important that we know these things in case something happens - for example, if you have an allergy to bees, are diabetic, or are anaphylactic to nuts or seafood - among many other possibilities.
If it is simply a dietary ‘request’ rather than a strict requirement (ie you dislike seafood but are not allergic to it) then please let us know this by adding a comment in the ‘Booking Notes’ section of the booking form and we will do our best to cater to your request.

You are welcome to bring an umbrella or jacket if needed, and please dress light if the weather is looking warm.
No, everything is covered in the tour cost. Of course, there will be opportunities to grab a glass of wine with lunch, or sometimes a coffee or sweet treat along the way – if you feel inclined – or purchase some bottles to take home with you.
