This is the perfect way to spend your afternoon in Adelaide. This half-day tour transports you right into the Adelaide Hills! Join us as we head from Adelaide to some stunning McLaren Vale wineries.

Your first stop on this wine tasting adventure is at Chapel Hill Winery, a hundred-year-old Chapel converted into this stylish winery. The views are just as good as the wine here, where you can enjoy the wine tasting experience while marvelling at the old rustic buildings, pretty art, and the sprawling hilltop landscapes that surround it.

After this, we will head to the Main Street of McLaren Vale, where you will have some free time to roam around. Attractions here include more McLaren Vale wine spots, such as Hardy's Tintara Cellar Door, sweet treat stops, such as Aussie Fruchocs chocolate factory, as well as an endless number of cafes to pop into. No matter what kind of traveller you are, this street of goodies is sure to satisfy your hunger for good food!

Our next McLaren Vale winery is Shingleback Winery, where you can enjoy another wine tasting experience. If you are feeling a bit peckish, you can dig into the winery’s famous cheeseboard platter, with the hard and soft varieties matching perfectly with your wine!

Afterwards, we will take the scenic route back towards Adelaide, offering you astonishing views of the Adelaide coastline. Along the way, we will stop off at the seaside suburb of Glenelg. Here you can either take a quick stroll around the area before hopping back on board the bus to Adelaide or opt to finish the tour here. Those who choose to stay can spend the rest of their day at the beach, and the seaside restaurants and shops dotted about, taking a quick 20-minute tram back to the city when they are ready.
