Great first experience - Great first experience of a wine tour. Super convenient with the bus stopping right at the cellar doors. Probably better spaced on the first leg; after lunch the tour felt a bit rushed with less time to sip between tastings. “Clydesdale Keith” our bus driver was great value!

Swan Valley wine & beer experience - The 3 wineries were fabulous, friendly & knowledgeable. The brewery was the same, all provided food with tastings. The chocolate factory could have been left off, as offered nothing to experience.

Great fun - Actually worth doing. Get to try different wines and beers and the chocolate shop at the end completes the trip. Bus driver was great and informative as well.

Very enjoyable - The half-day tour didn't start well as the bus missed picking us up in Guildford (we were at the appointed spot in good time) and by the time this was rectified we were already behind the rest of the tour at the first stop. However, we caught up the the tastings and really enjoyed the 3 contrasting vineyards we visited; one large, one smaller and one more rustic but all with some interesting and varied wines. Chatting to the staff in each venue was wonderful, as their passion for the products shone through. The supply of wines was plentiful with food accompaniments being offered also. The brewery and its beer was OK, but it would have been better to have seen the brewery itself not just a bar area. The chocolate stop was a bit pointless and some of the other guest spent their time in the distillery next door, which would have added value to the trip which was $90 per person and just about worth it. A really enjoyable afternoon was had though.

Basically a shopping trip - Some nice food and drink to sample. People very knowledgeable about their products. However they want you to buy. I went solo and depends on how friendly other tour guests are.

Won't Recommend to Friends - Bus tour and Keith was wonderful he made our day. He was helpful and full of knowledge he made the day he deserves the 5 stars. The tour itself wasn't as fun as we thought it would be. The first and Second stop was great, but after lunch it changed and was of an experience I want again. Windy Creek the lady was rude and very bossy she kept yelling at everyone treating adults like children. We had to try 16 wines very very very quikly. it felt like shot glasses was lined up and we drank them right after the other literally. We couldn't enjoy the moment or the wine after a while it just all tasted the same and was forcing the wine down. then being screamed at as well. The stop after windy Creek was quite and couldn't quite hear the story and what was offered. The toilets didn't even lock and felt a little unsafe/uncomfortable. The last stop at the chocolate factory lovely little place but was disappointed it wasn't the margaret river Chocolate factory.

Ok - I enjoyed the day, but felt the visit to the Brewery was a waste of time, it was only a pub, out to make money.

Lively tour - We did the tour that takes off in the late morning and finishes in the afternoon - with no chance for lunch. We were in a small bus (clean; good driver) up to the Swan Valley and then visited Mandoon (a rather large vineyard full of people trying wines), Lancasters (a more relaxing experience with some cheese thrown in) and then the Margaret River Chocolate Factory (with a detour to a nearby building selling Providore products). All the tastings were pleasant but the experience wasn't as good as wine tours I've had in other countries. And then there was boat trip back to the city. Hysterical is the best way to describe it. Free drinks - and so lots of people getting rather 'jolly' and very loud....and the then crew burst into song. Lovely voices but nothing relaxing about the trip back!
