About this tour
A full-day private tour for groups of 5–7 from Adelaide to a wine region of your choice: Barossa Valley, Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale, Hahndorf, or Clare Valley. You design the itinerary — wineries, restaurants, local shops, or sights — and a dedicated guide navigates your preferences in an air-conditioned vehicle with hotel pickup and drop-off included. Ideal for groups wanting to avoid the strangers-and-schedule rigidity of shared tours.
Highlights
- Choose your own wine region: Barossa, Hills, McLaren Vale, Hahndorf, or Clare
- Fully customisable itinerary — wineries, dining, shopping, or sightseeing
- Private guide and air-conditioned vehicle for your group only
- Hotel pickup and drop-off from Adelaide included
- Eight-hour full-day format with live commentary
- Suitable for all fitness levels

What to expect
Your guide will meet you at your Adelaide hotel or nominated location and collect your group. Once underway, you'll outline your day: whether that's a set of wineries you've researched, a mix of tasting rooms and lunch venues, or a blend of local attractions and shopping stops. The guide handles driving and commentary, adapting the route and pace to your group's interests and energy.
You'll move through your chosen region on a schedule that suits you — linger at a winery, skip ahead if somewhere isn't clicking, or detour to a recommendation. At the end of the eight hours, you'll be driven back to your hotel. Alcohol is available to purchase at venues; the guide won't be drinking and remains available for advice and logistics throughout.

Good to know
This works best for groups who want autonomy over a standard wine-tour itinerary and prefer not to share a bus with strangers. It's flexible enough for mixed interests — some in your group keen on wine, others more interested in food or scenery — since you set the stops. Note: You must be 18+ to participate in wine tasting; younger guests can join the tour but won't taste. Infants must sit on an adult's lap. The tour suits all fitness levels, though you'll be moving in and out of the vehicle and walking around venues. Alcoholic drinks aren't included in the price — budget for purchases. Peak times (weekends, vintage season) may mean busier cellar doors. Confirm your preferred region and rough itinerary when booking so the operator can plan logistics.
