Amazing time at Dolphin Kayak tour

We went on the dolphin Kayak tour yesterday and it was amazing. I went with my 10yr old son. We were so nervous to begin with, but our guide “Paddy” was so reassuring and informative that we calmed down and had the best time. We both absolutely loved it. And my son wants to go back next holidays. We saw so many dolphins!!!

Great half day trip

Phil our guide called before the tour to check if we were happy to begin 15 min earlier as weather wasn’t the best so that started our day well as he sounded super friendly and advised us how to get to bus depot. We. Boarded the bus with 5 others and headed to mount lofty. The fog made it impossible to see but we at least went up to check if we could! We then proceeded to handhorf and got great commentary along the way. Phil advised us of best places to eat streudal and what were must see shops. Our afternoon tea was also a delightful inclusion. Phil then kindly dropped us all off at our hotels. Great half day tour that we are very happy we went on.

A great mix!

Holly was our guide on this great day out. We certainly covered some ground but it was a great mix of things to do. Our visit to Handorf was our favourite, and Holly put us right on where to go, including the pretzels and nutcrackers. Great to have a table waiting for lunch and for wine tastings booked in. Thank you, Holly!

Incredible Experience!!!

What an incredible experience! Craig, our tour guide, was absolutely amazing. He was so friendly, welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable throughout the day. The visits to Kay Brothers and Hazelgrove wineries were fantastic. Craig explained the history of each place in such an engaging and detailed way. Even though I’m a local, I learned so much that I never knew before. His knowledge was truly commendable and he explained every little detail with passion and enthusiasm. What made the day even more special was that it was my birthday & this tour made my day truly memorable. This was my fourth time doing one of these wine tours, and once again it exceeded my expectations. A huge thank you to Craig for making my birthday so enjoyable & unforgettable. I’ll definitely be booking another tour again & would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic wine tour experience!

From the on-time pick up, we felt the day was going to be a good one. Roy was bright, cheery and welcoming. We had an interesting mix of passengers from across Australia and Toronto, Canada. As per the itinerary, there were plenty of stops with time to wander at leisure. All in all, we had a fabulous day thanks to Roy and his fun and informative banter and jokes.

We did the Hahndorf & Barossa & Maggie Beers tour. A fantastic experience from start to finish. Our brilliant driver and guide, Adi, was very knowledgeable and the car very comfortable. First stop was Maggie Beers beautiful farm and shop. Next stop, the stunning Chateau Tununda winery, followed by a delicious lunch at Kies winery. The last stop was Hahndorf with its rich German history. The tour was perfectly paced and we never felt rushed. Highly recommend the tour to anyone wanting to see and experience the area .

Wineries & Winning

Our visit to the Barossa Valley was a great day out. Our guide, Deep was insightful and charming. The four wineries were all different and the tastings each presented were plentiful. The lunch provided at the Kies Winery was superb and the "spin the wheel - win a bottle of wine" here was also a nice added touch - I won! To round off the day with a visit to Maggie Beer's Farm was an added bonus. All in all one of the best guided tours I have done through Viator. Well done "Bums on Seats". Five stars.
