★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 417 reviews · 5h 30m · from $63Best value

Join a small English-speaking group of up to 20 people for a 5.5-hour afternoon from Adelaide. Guides such as Craig, Bruce, and Jordan lead the scenic ride to Haselgrove Wines and Chapel Hill Winery, with wine tastings, a brief d’Arenberg Cube stop, and time in Glenelg.

“Nicely paced tour. Didn’t try to do too much so we had plenty of time to enjoy the wine tasting without being rushed. The two wineries were quite different but both were interesting and we got plenty of different wines to taste. Both talks accompanying the tasting were very interesting. Personally whilst the drive along the coast was nice, I wasn’t overly impressed by Glenelg but that was personal choice. Our driver Craig was excellent keeping us entertained with interesting facts during the journey.”
