Very enjoyable - recommend the trip - Very enjoyable visit to a couple of wineries. First with cheese was excellent but could have spent slightly less time there to have more time at the chocolate place.
I do not drink beer so could have given the brewery a miss but for beer drinkers they may have enjoyed it. More chips were needed
A van breakdown at the end that was speedily and efficiently dealt with.
All together very enjoyable day

Can’t miss! - It is amazing. Much better than I expected. We visited 3 nice wineries. I liked especially the second, where I bought 2 bottles of wine. We had lunch at this winery, which was delicious. Then, we also visited a brewery, a chocolate and a liquor place. We tasted their products everywhere. Our guide was very nice and gentle.

Great experience, exceptional service. - This is actually the second time I have used D’Vine and they were as good as the first time. I previously did the half day tour which was great, but having a spare full day in Perth in poor weather, we figured it’s always dry on a wine tour (apart from in the glass!), so we booked the full day. What fantastic value for money……3 wineries, 6 tastings at each, a shared cheese platter, a huge really tasty lunch, a chocolate tasting as well as chocolate liqueur, oh yes and a brewery visit and sample. All whilst being ferried around by the charming Wes. On top of that there was a mistake made by one of the wineries with a wine purchase I made, which I did not discover until arriving back home in Abu Dhabi, and D’Vine have been super responsive and helpful in resolving the issue, and replacing the item, even across the miles. Highly recommend the tour and the company.

Great Swan Vally wine tour - Great wine tour in the Swan Valley. Thanks to @DutchiesTravel and @Roo_Lindsey for the booking. Just a short 30 minute drive out of Perth we visited 3 wineries with 5-6 tasting at each plus a chocolatier and brewery.
First winery was Nikola where we enjoyed cheese, crackers, olives and hummus with our wines. Followed by a short drive to Mandoon Estate. 6 wines followed by a great generously portioned lunch (included in the price). Did feel that the tasting here was just a little rushed. Both Nikola and Mandoon had good selection of wine related goods to purchase.
Last winery was Lancaster, more rustic but a great vibe.
Next stop The Margaret River Chocolate Co with free samples (and plenty to buy!) and then tasting of 4 Sambarino chocolate liqueurs. Final stop was Duckstein Brewery with a choice of wine, beer or soft drink and fries (hot chips).
Overall an approx 6 hour tour and certainly well fed and watered.
Big shout out to our guide / driver Wes who was excellent throughout.
Highly recommended

Incredible trip I’ve been three times - Drivers Wes and Tracy and incredible. Very knowledgeable snd cannot do enough for you.
You go to three wineries, the chocolate factory and a brewery and have tastings at each. All have a different charm but are lovely. The lunch is also great with lots of veggie options.
Could not recommend this trip enough!

Insightful Winery Tour of Swan Valley - Well paced day for food and tasting. Ron was a great guide. Helped when the tour group was convivial and chilled throughout the tour. The hospitality shown by the wineries was amazing. Enjoyed the day!

Avoid this Tour - The wine tour is a perfect fit if you want to slam a quick wine experience into a day ... the wines presented by the vineyards were just ok, each stop was packed with people and the information for each wine was slammed into a tasting of 6-8 wines ... the lunch was tasty but the place again was crowded and with many groups of women on verge of getting the drunk to noise levels were at times deafening.
The choc. tasting was again crowded and learned nothing about the company nor the products... so crowded we were able to taste the choc. liquors ..... last stop was the beer tasting and something that was appropriate to the area but inconsistent for the experience and frankly just added to the confusion of the day trip....
The driver while friendly was reduced to managing loud groups, seat belt cop, and not really able to provide much insight to the wines etc.... it was like he was just ticking off the stops ....
I would suggest a two things ..
- spend a bit more and go with a smaller tour experience
-don't go on a weekend
-or bring your own large group of loud people to compete for loudest volume wine index as you slowly get drunk
-book the whole bus with only your friends
All was not lost as we did meet two couples and enjoyed the day talking to them ... but overall I would not recommend
