About this tour
A private, full-day tour of Swan Valley for your group only, covering wine, food, craft and regional culture. You'll visit wineries, breweries, distilleries and artisan studios across one of Australia's oldest wine regions, just 30 minutes from Perth. The tour is built around your preferences — you choose which producers and restaurants to visit — with a knowledgeable local driver-guide. Tastings and lunch are separate costs. Runs 6–8 hours depending on your itinerary.

- Over 40 wineries, breweries and distilleries to choose from in one region
- Meet blacksmiths, stonemasons, fabric designers and other working artists
- Known for soft, early-drinking reds and crisp, fresh white wines
- Hotel pickup and drop-off included in your area

- Air-conditioned private vehicle with chilled water throughout
- Flexible for families: infant car seats available
What to expect
You'll be collected from your hotel and driven to your chosen first stop in Swan Valley. Your guide will offer suggestions on wineries, breweries, distilleries and lunch venues based on your interests — wine focus, food, craft studios, or a mix of all three. You visit at your own pace, stopping for tastings (paid separately, typically $5–$10 per person) and a meal at a restaurant of your choice (not included). The guide stays with you to provide local knowledge and context about winemaking traditions, the valley's creative community, and what makes the region distinct. You return to your hotel at the end of the day.

Good to know
This tour suits anyone wanting an overview of Swan Valley beyond wine alone — especially if you're interested in local craft, food and regional character. It's equally good for dedicated wine lovers who want flexibility rather than a set route. The region is only 30 minutes from Perth, so it's accessible for short stays. Note: tastings and lunch costs are separate and can add significantly to your day. Groups of 5 or more must book at least one week ahead. The tour is suitable for all fitness levels and families with infants. Weather is not a major constraint, but summer heat can be intense; plan accordingly.
