Fabulous McLaren Vale Experience! - My husband and I booked Nick at Wine Diva Tours for two days to take us around the McLaren Vale. We were already familiar with the area but asked him to introduce us to some new wineries that we weren’t familiar with. He did and we were not disappointed. We tried some amazing wines from wineries that we will certainly return to. Nick was knowledgable and a delight to spend the two days with. Thanks Nick! Highly recommend Nick @ Wine Diva Tours.

Highly recommend Wine Diva tours - We were staying in the McLaren Vale area and booked Wine Diva tours as they offered pick-ups in the local area. We were picked up by Trish at our site and taken out to start our tour. Trish was pleasant and courteous and asked what type of wines we liked so she could work out an itinerary. So we set off. We managed to visit 6 wineries, had a local produce platter + wine tasting for lunch and had a really good day. We enjoyed our visits, the Kay Winery was a particular nice place with a knowledgeable and interesting Cellar manager. Also found Wirra Wirra nice with Rebecca our host was very good. Found that Cellar door/tasting hosts made a big difference to the experience and at our list visit, Samsons Tall the host was really good. So in summary my wife and I enjoyed our day out with Trish who was good chatty company throughout the day We would highly recommend the Wine Diva tours for their McLaren Vale experience.

Couldn’t be better ! - We had a great time at McLaren Valley ! It couldn’t be better. First of all, our guide, Nick, extremely kind and knowledgeable. The wineries were simply fantastic! Excelent wines and very nice people! Our lunch was outstanding. I have no words to describe how satisfied we were. Congratulations, wine diva tours. Definitely I recommend you!

Friendly, informative driver, a spacious clean car and a great wine tasting experience - Nick picked us up from the cruise terminal and drove us to McLaren Vale for a wine tour during our ship's day docked in Adelaide. Nick was just as friendly and informative as can be. For our first stop he took us to Molly Dooker winery. This was the highlight of our day. This winery is on beautifully maintained grounds, with a view of the valley. The tasting room ("cellar door") at Molly Dooker was modern, clean and comfortable. More importantly, the wines were delicious. So happy that Nick brought us to this winery. Based on reviews, we had also pre-booked (on our own) lunch at the d'Arenberg Veranda restaurant and a visit to the d'Arenberg Cube, which Nick drove us to. The d'Arenberg experience was somewhat disappointing compared to Molly Dooker. In retrospect, I wish we had let Nick choose our lunch spot and a couple different wineries, instead of d'Arenberg (which we chose ourselves). The only real highlight of d'Arenberg was the fantastic view of the vale from one of its balconies. Bottom line: Just tell Nick what you want to taste, experience, eat and he will find the right places take you to. Also, we wrapped up a little early, so Nick graciously offered to take us to a nearby wildlife sanctuary where we got a glimpse of a kangaroo and an emu. He also took a brief detour to show us downtown Adelaide before dropping us off at the cruise terminal.

Nick created a great day for us in McLaren Vale - My husband and I were fortunate to have Nick all to ourselves for a wine tour of McLaren Vale. We visited 4 wineries, and got to try some great wines that we’d never find in the states. Nick shared lots of info about the wineries, the area, history, owners and wines themselves. Nick was so friendly and easygoing, and he arranged the day beautifully including a wonderful lunch at one of the wineries. We would happily tour with Nick again!

Touring the Vale in style - My husband and I spent an awesome day with Greg from Wine Diva Tours. Greg was a most warm and friendly host, and took us on a wine tasting experience that was most enjoyable. He tailored the tour to complement our wine tastes and had organised a delicious and plentiful tasting platter for our midday stop. We would highly recommend using Wine Diva Tours for your wine trip. We plan to come back in the future as there are still wine areas that we are keen to explore ; and Greg from Wine Diva Tours is the one we want to help us explore them.

Great day and excellent wines thanks to Nick - My daughter and I had a wonderful day visiting McLaren Vale wineries. Although we have been there before, Nick introduced us to fabulous small family owned vineyards that I wasn't aware of. I highly recommend this tour and will definitely do it again. Thanks Nick!!

Very memorable day in McLaren Vale - Such a fantastic experience. My wife and I have done similar tours in wine regions elsewhere in the world, and this was quite possibly the best. We visited a compelling variety of cellars ranging from larger producers to one doing interesting experimental things off the beaten path. Greg curated our itinerary according to our interests and based on his close connections with people and country here (he specializes only in McLaren Vale, which is also his home, and his intimate knowledge really comes through!). You will be well taken care of!

Fantastic Wine Tour - We did a brilliant winery tour with Wine Diva Tours and Chris as our guide. He did a fantastic job and personally I learned more about wines in this one day than I've learned the rest of my life. Lunch was at the Salopian Inn which was to die for. A trip that will forever remain etched in my memory.
