Wasiq was a fabulous tour guide and extremely knowledgeable about all the areas we visited. Our tour group was small, with just eight people in total, and we all got along wonderfully and really enjoyed each other’s company. We loved visiting Mt Lofty, and the Hahndorf experience was amazing. We never felt rushed and were given plenty of free time to explore the town at our own pace. Lunch was taken care of at Haus restaurant and was absolutely delicious. After that, we visited Melba’s Chocolates and the cheese shop next door, where we enjoyed tasting some wonderful treats. To finish off the afternoon, we had a wine tasting at Kersbrook Hill Winery. Overall, we had a fantastic day, and once again Wasiq looked after us exceptionally well. We would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the region—let BOS Tours take you there.

AJ_R, Apr 2026

Enjoyed the trip tho didn't get what was advertised e.g no morning tea or visit to a Opal Company. Did get a very nice lunch and about two hours in the town. Also don't go on a Tuesday as many shops shut after the weekend and reopen Wednesday.

Wonderful Day trip to Hahndorf

Historic Hahndorf

Cassandra_C, Jan 2026

This was a great day out with my Mother to experience Hahndorf and the surrounding area. Our bus driver was Rahil, who picked us up in a small van with 3 other guests. It was a great, small group. We got to see Mount Lofty and view Adelaide from above. We then got to Hahndorf and had some time to explore at our leisure. Would have been nice to have a bit of time after lunch (which was great at The Haus) as we only had 2 hours before lunch, and we didn't have set times for stops after lunch. However, overall the day was great. The stop at Melba's was the best way to finish the day, enjoying a bit of chocolate!

We were given enough time to thoroughly enjoy our day out. We didn't feel rushed at any point of the day. Our lunch was fantastic. Being a small group was really good. Our driver was very knowledgeable and helpful. I think his name is Zamir.

Bernadette_C, Nov 2025

Going to Hahndorf was a different experience that you would not assume you would get in Australia. This town is a great place to get souvenirs for everyone back home and visiting Outback Opals for beautiful Australian opals was great. In terms of our guide, he was kind and tried to give history but he simply was not knowledgeable of the area and could not provide much information. The restaurant where we stopped for coffee/tea in the morning and again for lunch was very touristy and not great. We had a very rushed time through the strawberry farm part which is just going through their store, same with the chocolate part, and then the cheese tasting store was not even open. If you’re just wanting to get from Adelaide to Hahndorf for a day trip to do something this is fine but it’s not much more than that.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re really glad you enjoyed your experience with BOS Tours Adelaide. It was a pleasure having you on tour, and your kind words mean a lot to our team. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!

Disappointing

Narelle_M, Nov 2025

Our trip was unknowingly a combined trip so instead of following our itinerary we were diverting to wineries to drop off other passengers. (Maybe this is why they rang a few days out asking if we wanted to add on a winery tour at an extra cost ). The cheese factory was closed, we were at the Berenberg shop for 15 mins only and half the shops in town were closed. Not a trip I would recommend if combined.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Visiting Hahndorf

Danny_T, Sep 2025

A great day to spend in the Hahndorf region. Magical spots hidden away for you to meander around. Well worth doing we were supported by our guide and driver Ardi whose 1st day on the job did a fantastic job looking after us. Ardi ensured we were looked after and informed of key sites. Great job Ardi you were great

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Our tour guide didn't listen to us

Adrian_M, Jul 2025

Our tour guide, Anil, was very nice, but, with the weather as horrible as it was, and given that we'd been to Mount Lofty several times before, we asked him if we could skip the Mount Lofty part. By that stage, we were the only two left, and he ignored our requests and went to a very foggy and wet Mount Lofty in the middle of a giant thunderstorm, when we could see absolutely nothing other than fog, and got extremely wet. I don't know why he did it, but it certainly wasn't what we wanted. Also, his van had several pieces of rubbish leftover from previous tours that he didn't bother to clean before our trip, or even mid-trip. However, he was good in that he let us spend some extra time at the chocolate shop, which was nice. It wasn't the worst tour, but this was much worse than our trips with BOS tours in Queensland, which suggests that BOS is a good tour company but perhaps Anil needs to improve a bit.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Sorry to hear but i guess He tried his best to keep you happy and cover most of the places.

Family Friendly

Great tour to do whilst in Adelaide

Denise_P, Oct 2024

Paul, our driver, was very informative about the areas we drove through on our way to Hahndorf. He filled us in on the history of Hahndorf and the surrounding area. We had a lovely morning tea and a delicious lunch at Haus in Hahndorf. We would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to go to the Adelaide Hills.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thanks Denise for your great review

A great day out

Maria_L, Aug 2024

Our guide was friendly and we learnt so much of the history of this beautiful place from him. The Morning tea and lunch included was at a beautiful restaurant with outstanding food- a real bonus! A bonus stop on the way home at a winery was a tasting treat!

Sophia_B, Mar 2023

The tour was canceled the evening before the actual date as I was the only person who booked it. I should have received more notice to organize my day differently

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Dear Sophia Berhier Thanks for your great review Im not to sure how you expect me to psychically know that there would be no other bookings on that day ?? You where told that we could NOT fully confirm your tour with JUST ONE PERSON when you first booked & if I canceled your tour two days before someone else may have booked? I guess I can't win on this situation? BUT did we really deserve your key board worrier 1 STAR review I'm sorry it happened this way and I'm also sorry that your son was so Frigging rude when I rang your number to give you a FREE GIFT CARD for next time that I ended hanging up on him.. what a nasty man.
