Private luxury wine tours from Adelaide
A chauffeured, all-inclusive day in the Barossa, McLaren Vale or the Adelaide Hills. Four wineries, lunch, and a prestige car with your own chauffeur.
Three regions. Three perfect days.
South Australia's three great wine regions are within an hour of the city. Each of our Signature Wine Tours is one complete day, about eight hours, planned to the last detail so all you do is enjoy it.
You choose the region, the tasting level and the car. We collect you from your door, book every tasting, seat you for lunch and bring you home again. There is no group, no timetable to keep, and no designated driver.
It's the day we would plan for our own family, and we run it the same way every time.

Not a bus tour. Your day.
Most wine tours from Adelaide are shared minibuses: a fixed loop of cellar doors, a set lunch and a timetable to keep. A 24K wine tour is the opposite. It's a private, luxury day planned around you, in a prestige car with your own chauffeur.
- Only your group in the car, never strangers
- Seated, booked tastings at estates that don't take walk-ins
- A long lunch at one of the region's best tables
- Collected from your door and brought home again
- A bottle from the region to take home
- Planned personally, start to finish
Barossa, McLaren Vale or the Hills?
All three are within about an hour of Adelaide, and each one makes a very different day.
| Region | From the city | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Barossa Valley wine tours | About 1 hour | Bold old-vine Shiraz, historic estates and rare fortified wines |
| McLaren Vale wine tours | About 45 minutes | Grenache and Shiraz, the d'Arenberg Cube and a sunset on the coast |
| Adelaide Hills wine tours | About 30 minutes | Cool-climate Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, sparkling and golden-hour views |

Good to know
Is it a private tour?
Yes. It is only your group, your car and your chauffeur. Nobody else joins you, and nothing runs to a bus timetable.
Where do you collect us from?
From your home or hotel in Adelaide, and we take you back there at the end of the day. Staying further out? Tell us where and we'll arrange it.
How many guests can come?
Each tour is priced for two, and up to four guests can travel together.
What deposit do you take?
A 25% deposit secures your date. It is non-refundable, because your car is taken off the road and held for you from the moment you book. The balance is due 21 days before. Book inside 21 days and it is paid in full at booking.
Can we change the wineries?
Each Signature Tour is a curated day, so the line-up is set. If you have something different in mind, tell us your vision and we'll design a bespoke day around it.
What is the best wine region near Adelaide?
It depends on what you like to drink. The Barossa is famous for rich Shiraz and history, McLaren Vale for Grenache and the coast, and the Adelaide Hills for cool-climate whites, Pinot Noir and sparkling. All three make a superb day.
How far is the Barossa Valley from Adelaide?
About an hour by car. McLaren Vale is about 45 minutes and the Adelaide Hills about 30 minutes from the city.
Is a private wine tour good for a special occasion?
It's one of the most popular ways to celebrate an anniversary, birthday or proposal. Add champagne and flowers in the car, a photographer, or arrive by helicopter.
Dietary requirements?
Tell us when you book and we'll arrange it with the lunch venue before the day.
Do you do shorter wine days?
Yes. We also arrange chauffeured wine days from four hours. Call us on 0402 704 088 and we'll plan it with you.
Every booking is planned by me personally. If anything isn't perfect, I'll make it right.Lee Catania · Founder
