A great intro to Adelaide and surrounds!
Excellent tour. Tom was a great tour guide. Super knowledgeable, especially with the wine region! The drive tour through the city part was better than I expected, so many fun alleys and side streets and places we decided to return to the next day. We didn’t feel rushed at any of the stops. We had three kids with us between 6 and 10 who had a great time, though it was a long day for them.

Barossa Valley Wine Tour
The Barossa Valley Food and Wine Tour is such an enjoyable experience. It is a small group tour by Bums on Seat Tour. I met two lovely couples from New Zealand. Our tour guide Miro is great.
We visited four family-owned wineries, and they are all excellent from the staff, wine and the venues. We got to see Maggie Beer's Farm Shop as well.
Tour is highly recommended.

Barossa Experience
A lot packed into one day! Worth it. Multiple vineyards with wine tastings, yummy lunch, donuts, historic buildings, choose your own adventure at seppeltsfields, drive by of canola fields, a chocolate factory stop. Fab view of Adelaide coming back on the freeway to the left too. Extremely appreciative of the hotel pick up option. Holly & co-pilot Mike were wonderful hosts - thank you for a wonderful day out 🙂

Exceptional day trip
A very enjoyable small group tour. Hahndorf was a particularly lovely village...a must do. Jerry our tour driver was friendly, informative & patient. The Kiers Cellar door was a great experience. Our host Sheila invited us to try anything we asked for at no trouble. Lunch equally, at the Monkey Nut cafe was very tasty. On the way we popped into Melba's Chocolate which brought back memories, with old school treats like Licorice blocks, aniseed rings & many many more delights.
Thoroughly enjoyable day out.

Sensational tour!
We all really enjoyed our trip to Victor Harbour and the Fleurieu Peninsula. It was a gorgeous sunny day and we visited so many quaint and beautiful locations. Our tour guide, Martin was very informative and supplied us with lots of interesting information, plus he had a great sense of humour and was very helpful. Thank you!

Jerry from the bus company was friendly, professional, historically informative throughout our journey.
The bus itself was very comfortable and relaxing + I enjoyed the views from my window, quite spectacular throughout the Barossa region & Adelaide Hills. Hahndorf in particular, was the highlight of the trip. Highly recommend this town, particularly if you appreciate an historical village with German influenced food, beer, music and joy in every shop. Well worth the visit.
I booked this trip for my birthday, treating myself to enjoy a nice day out. Overall it was way better than I ever expected The driver, Jerry, was fantastic; very friendly & professional. He kept us all fully informed of passing monuments, approaching towns + all historical and cultural features throughout the journey. Jerry kept our itinerary on time, was clear and delivered interesting content when passing through places of interest, stopping for photo opportunities, and made lunchtime efficient & enjoyable . I noticed he was respectful not to rush anyone throughout the day, making it even more relaxing.
I really wanted to visit Maggie Beer’s farm, which I noticed wasn’t on the schedule, however Jerry somehow made it happen for me and everyone else enjoyed it too. Ti me, that was a major bonus of the day.
Thoroughly enjoyed it and our group was small and we all got on well, enjoying the whole South Australian experience.
Best birthday experience ever! Thank you!

Amazing !!!!!

Wine tour experience
I have given this tour 5 stars because that is what it deserves primarily with our tour guide Baden whose communication,friendliness and knowledge of Adelaide and the Barossa wine industry was next level.We have been on many wine tours but this would be one of the best. Would totally recommend to others

A fun day out
A wonderfully relaxed way to visit the surrounding areas of Adelaide.
Roy’s humour and genuine engagement made a grey day into a fun, memorable experience. He clearly enjoys going above and beyond to make his tours memorable.
He made a conscious effort to engage with all passengers, and encouraged everyone to enjoy each other’s company.

Kangaroo Island day trip.
It's a huge day but well worth it if you're short on time in Adelaide/ South Australia.
Joanne the driver and guide is very knowledgeable and obviously loves Kangaroo Island. She is very professional when it comes to safety and care of the travellers.
I loved Remarkable Rocks and the Wildlife sanctuary. Kangaroo Island kangaroos are the cutest ever and being able to get so close to koalas and even pat them while they were in a tree was a treat.
Thank you!

Brilliant Barossa
Best way to explore the Barossa. We chose our own adventure and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We found 1 hour the perfect amount of time to spend at each winery. Rusden is a must! Annie at Burge really knows her stuff. Laurie is a fabulous host. Many thanks

Amazing experience
Really enjoyed our morning kayaking at Adelaide Dolphin Sanctuary. The guides (Mark and Liam) were really friendly and welcoming as well as being very knowledgeable about the area and dolphins. Liked going through the mangroves, learning about wildlife and then seeing two dolphins who were swimming and diving around the harbour.
Would definitely recommend this as an activity to do, and would do it again when we next visit.
Thank you so much.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
While Adelaide charms with its sunny beaches and thriving cultural scene, there’s a whole lot of South Australia to see beyond its major city. Wine fans can sample the region’s finest at Barossa Valley or McLaren Vale, and nature lovers can explore the Murray River and meet the wildlife on Kangaroo Island. Elsewhere, take in the views at Victor Harbor and visit historic towns such as Strathalbyn and Hahndorf. With transport, guides and often food and drink included, Adelaide day trips offer a hassle-free way to experience Australia’s south.
