The Barossa Valley is steeped in history, with its early settlers of the 1840s and 1850s originating from both the UK and Germany...the Prussians of Silesia and Pomerania among them, escaping religious persecution. The old blacksmith's shop at Gibson Wines was the home of Anna Kowald and Johann Steicke, who married on board during their epic migration to South Australia in 1841. They raised 10 children in this pug (clay and straw) structure. A wonderful wine flight was provided by Victoria in the Gibson cellar door. #beonsumedtours #barossavalleytours #mclarenvalewinetours #southaustralia @gibsonwines ...

McLaren Vale Wine Tours

Top-rated tour, excellent value.

We went to McLaren vale. Wes is very thoughtful and fun. He took us to some of the most beautiful wineries. We also went looking for some kangaroos on our way back. Overall we had a blast! I would 100% recommend doing this tour.

This is a fantastic experience and Wes was the greatest guide! He was both well informed and hilarious; the countryside is absolutely beautiful and the wine and food superb. Cannot recommend highly enough!!!

Wine tour with Wes was seamless starting from pick up at my Airbnb. Loved the small group size which made it more personal. Wes has extensive knowledge of the local wineries and chose locations that had its own vibe. Great value for price with some outstanding wines. Would highly recommend Wes. Thank you so much for a memorable day!

Wes and his team helped make our wine trips in Adelaide super special and memorable. We visited some amazing locations with even better wine. The team are really friendly and happy to accommodate the style that you need. We started with a trip to the Barossa and then did another in Mclaren Vale and Wes crafted the itineraries to ensure we got the most well rounded experience. We all loved it and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Testimonials, an incredible day out.

My partner and I had the most incredible day out in McLaren Vale with Jon. From start to finish, the whole day was a highlight! Extremely knowledgeable and easy going, I can’t recommend him enough. Already planning a trip back!

A terrific birthday tour

my partner organised my birthday weekend in McLaren Vale and chosed Jon as our guide. Jon was great, very professional, took us to places where we hadn't been before and was very flexible to organise something based on my preferences. We will definitely contact Jon for our next visit to McLaren Vale.

A wonderful tour with Jon

Jon took us on a wonderful tour of Mclaren Vale, showing us some local hidden gems of the wine region aswell as a south australia iconic gin distillery! His knowledge of wine making and history of the region is very helpful throughout the day. Jon even arranged for our wine to be sent back to brisbane which was an added bonus! Well worth the adventure! Can't wait for our next tour with MyMcLaren Vale tours!

Best wine tour I've ever had

Jon shared some of his local knowledge and took us to some hidden gems that we would not have found on our own, plus the ones we had researched. He managed to curate the perfect custom tour centred around our interests and taste. He has an incredible knowledge of the industry and doesn't hesitate to share. His passion for wine and the McLaren Vale region absolutely shines through his warm, open and generous communication style.

Mclaren Vale and the Cube Experience

This wine tour of the Mclaren Vale region summarises the offering of the abundant land (almost) in a day. From coast to country, there are four stops – which may not sound like much, but when we wine tour un-guided, we hardly make it past the second winery. 

Start at stump hill cafe to get the pallet charging with a few wines from the region that are slightly more boutique and not on offer via cellar door. Then it’s off to the trophy catch, the place worth doing a post about, d’Aranberg’s Cube. The Cube is a ginormous, extraterrestrial relic-like structure that almost looks as if it could be an offering to the gods thousands of years ago, yet no one understands the physics of how it was erected. 

We won’t spoil the surprise, but we’ll give you a taste – on this tour, you get to indulge in a premium wine tasting on level four. You’re given ample time to survey the galleries, and then it’s to Polly’s Restaurant for a 2-course meal. You can read more about it in our write-up on the Best Wineries in Mclaren Vale .

It doesn’t end there; then it’s off to two more wineries. It is subject to rotate every now and then but commonly, you’ll head to Beresford Wines and Wirra Wirra Vineyards to finish off the day!

Bus Wine Tour Mclaren Vale

Whether you’re looking for a private bus tour with a large group (usually up to 20 people) or you don’t mind going on your wine adventure with a few new companions, a bus tour offers flexibility and it’s a great medium to meet fellow wine lovers. 

McLaren Vale Hop On Hop Off Tour – City Pick Up & Return

There is great flexibility on this simplistic wine tour through the Mclaren Vale region. If you don’t like the idea of formality or someone guiding you through the history and popular grape varietals of the region, then the bus tour might be the option for you; it’s also almost half the price. But with a price decrease, there are obviously fewer perks. 

With the bus tour, you have to be really organised. It’s a hop-on-hop-off system with the option to spend longer at wineries. But YOU have to book your lunch or tasting – the company does not do this for you. So it’s best to have a solid itinerary and work off that. 

(Want a sneak peek of the Winery Lunches in Mclaren Vale you should choose from?)

The perks of the Bus Tour? Well, no one has to risk blowing over the limit (or worse), and no one has to sacrifice participating in the wine tasting to drive their annoying (chanting in the back seat) friends from winery to winery. 

Pick up and drop off in Adelaide CBD or in Mclaren Vale at the Stamford Plaza Hotel.

Cycling Tours, Mclaren Vale

If you’re a bit of a thrill-seeking vino enthusiast, then a cycling tour through the Mclaren Vale may be the experience to scratch that adrenaline itch. But different tour companies offer different levels of experience, one may give you a flat and cruise ride, pick the wrong (or right) one, and you may just be speeding down more advanced hills and bush tracks holding on for dear life.

Escape Goat Cycling Tours

The Escape Goat bike tour is not your typical wine-tasting excursion. Rather than being a traditional wine tasting journey, it’s more of a nature-based adventure through this beautiful section of South Australia by mountain bike with plenty of good quality wine tasting and local products included! You’ll ride high-end mountain bikes, so you get to see the country instead of being restricted to asphalt roads and bike paths. 

You’ll see some amazing areas of the region that other tourists don’t get a chance to witness. You’ll zip through some of South Australia’s spectacular National Parks, descend Wickhams Hill in an exciting (but easy) downhill ride, and crawl through the vines to discover delicious local wineries.

If you’re concerned about your fitness, don’t be. You’ll begin at the highest point in the region and ride mostly downhill! This is a leisurely bike journey for new bikers. 

Trips operate daily, including Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays. Other days may be arranged if there are no Wednesday trips during off-peak period.

Resting along the rugged coastline of the Fleurieu Peninsula, the hilltop views of McLaren Vale South extend over the valley and right to sea. Verdant, rolling vines fill the landscape as you travel to wineries which offer spectacular vistas and even better wines.

Continuing to blend old and new, McLaren Vale South is renowned as much for its traditional wines as it is for its newer styles. With newer styles like Sangiovese and Barbera nestled amongst the more traditional Shiraz, Grenache, and Cabernet Sauvignon, there is sure to be something for everyone in the beautiful McLaren Vale South.

Some wineries have requested bookings essentials and also have implemented paid tastings (this is regardless of group size, and whether you’re driving yourself or on TrailHopper). So please know you’ll need to organize your some stops for your group’s day in advance by booking into your desired venues  before  the tour departs. Our  InfoPack contains all you need to know about the venues on this tour and we’re always on hand to help. We know this isn’t ideal, but it’s out of our hands.

The best part is that the wine, the scenery, and the sheer enjoyment of being out on tour with us is as special as always.

We truly hope you’ll come on board soon and support not only our staff and business but those of the awesome venues and regions we visit.

McLaren Vale South boasts a variety of fine and varied food options to satisfy every taste and budget. You can find gorgeous and tasty platters of local produce or fine dining or make a stop at any one of the many bakeries or cafes in the McLaren Vale Township.
