Barossa Food & Wine Experience

This five star rated small coach food and wine tour takes you on journey to South Australia's premium wine region the Barossa Valley.

Take time to sample some of the Barossa Valley's finest wines and gourmet food that has made this South Australian wine region an international icon.

Travel through the city of Adelaide northwards to the world renowned Barossa Valley wine region. Enjoy the change of scenery as you make your way into the vineyards of South Australia’s premium wine region.

Your first stop is TeAro Estate. Located in the main street of Williamstown, gateway to the Barossa, in a heritage listed 1850's barn you'll get a chance to visit the intimate Tasting Room. You will be treated to morning tea sourced from the local bakery and wine tastings while hearing stories from 4 generations of family vignerons. Checkout TeAro Estate on Trip Advisor and you'll see why this is an essential stop!

The next stop is a visit to Maggie Beer’s Farm Shop*, an absolute must whilst visiting the Barossa. Maggie Beer - cook, writer and founder of 'Maggie Beer Products', offers tastings and sales of her full product range including limited edition seasonal produce. Here you can browse amongst her personally selected regional specialty goods, purchase one of her signed books or simply sit back and take in the view.

On arrival at Lambert Estate at Angaston, you will enjoy a structured wine tasting whilst sampling local seasonal produce from gourmet platters. Main course follows, and is a feast for the senses, with two signature dishes, salad
and vegetables. You may wish to purchase a glass of wine from the impressive wine selection, or enjoy a coffee accompanied with their popular Chocolatier (Chocolate Port).

Leaving Lambert Estate, travel to Mengler Hill Lookout for sweeping views over the valley and then onto our final stop for the day at Pindarie, which is a multi-tourism award winning cellar door, which feels more like an Australian Homestead than a cellar door.

The friendly staff don’t just pour the wine; they share the stories behind the wines and Pindarie, a great way to finish off our Barossa Food & Wine Experience.

Service: Colin at Adelaide Sightseeing assisted me when I was attempting to book our three tours online. Terry, our coach driver for Adelaide Highlights and Hahndorf Tours, was outstanding - polite, extremely patient and so knowledgeable about the history of Adelaide and the quaint township of Hahndorf. Haighs Chocolates was a highlight. The tour of the Barossa Valley was also speactacular. Robin drove us to a boutique cellar door, TeAro in Williamstown, where we savoured the delights of Cranberry and Pear Cake followed by a number of wines named after family members. A number of taste sensations followed at Maggie Beer's, a sumptuous meal at Lambert Estate and another great visit to Pindarie where Rick, recognising that I was not a wine connoisseur, introduced me to the delicious dessert wine, Seductress. Congratulations Adelaide Sightseeing. We have waited for decades to visit Adelaide and, thanks to you, we have not been disappointed.

Product: Robin introduced us to the quaint Te-Aro cellar door, the delights of Maggie Beers, the delicious meal at Lambert Estate and the knowledgeable Rick at Pindarie.

The tour guide needed more passion for his job. When eating lunch with paying guests should make their needs a priority. Tour stops were interesting and well thought out.

Service: The tour guide provided us with a knowledgable tour of Adelaide with some fun facts here and there. The wineyards were lovely and lunch was great as well! Maggie's beer farm had some lovely jams and pastes that acted as a little entreé to our lunch that was right after this stop.
Thanks for the lovely tour! It was well worth the money!

Both my wife and I felt the first cellar door was poor and let the trip down from 5 stars to 4 stars. Lambert estate and pindarie winery's were excellent. and Maggie's Beers farm was great.
If you do this excursion allow extra luggage for the trip home .

Service: First up when you advertise coffee/morning tea at first stop it really should not be instant coffee in a food and wine region. My other issue is the Art park/lookout stop. The driver was very disparaging about the art and we were told 5 mins only and not to leave the car park as there was deadly snakes and basically why would anyone want to look at the sculptures anyway! Really! There did not seem to be any problem with the other people not on the tour that were walking around. I guess there is no value for your tour company at a free public site. Again, why advertise this if you are not committed to this being a great experience.

Product: Food at lunch stop was nice as was the wine.

Being a professional driver myself I can be very critical of drivers but Roger did tick all my boxes well done and you can tell him I as a driver enjoyed his driving and banter along the way

Product: Most enjoyable we did enjoy all three though the second (where lunch was served) was beautiful and amenities were excellent the third winery was also a good choice to take customers and enjoyed the history of the place

Service: It was a difficult day for the driver due to traffic restrictions. This made the experience less than hoped for.
Ultimate BV Wine Tour was very good and most enjoyable. This was aided by being a smaller group.
Victor and Mclaren was very enjoyable. Main stop at Victor Harbor gave enough time for lunch and sightseeing. This was a larger group and not a lot of interaction between the group.
The coach drivers om all tours were good with descriptions of areas traversed, history and freely answered questions.

Product: Excellent. Small group allowed for interaction. Wineries visited were small and personal. Very educattional

Enjoyed the day was a bit apprehensive when picked up from the hotel by mini bus in the back seat . I thought that would be my place for the day. Very relieved when changed to a full coach. I thought we should have been told that was to happen when boarding the mini bus.

We had a great time on the tour, I know a little about European wine but nothing about Australian wine so it was interesting! I liked going to the smaller vineyards with a bit of history! Some of the tastings were on the small side especially at Pindarie, however we did have 7 wines to taste! I guess I'm a bit of a slurper!! Good company and wine, what more can one ask!

Service: Driver was very Knowledgeable ond very friendly.
I was knowing about that they would try and fill the bus as much as possible, we were 17 guest on the bus, that is way too many people for a wine tour!

Product: First of all we were 17 guests on the bus, which is WAY too many for a wine tour, you simple dont enough for the money because everything is going very slow.
Second of all, out of a whole day we only visited 3 places, spending more time looking around and stuff.
Very disappointed of our Lunch, the food was excellent, but, the wine tasting was before the food (even though on the poster it says food with wine parring) after the three glasses of tasting we then got the food and then had to BUY a glass for ourselves.
overall not pleased for my $139..
The vineries we visited was not any of the wellknown, it was all knew (cheap) places and I dont think that I would even have spend any $ on them if I was going on my own.
Our driver was very knowledgeable and very friendly.

Response from Adelaide Sightseeing:

Service: Hi Viktoria,

Thanks for providing feedback regarding the Barossa Food & Wine Experience Tour with Adelaide Sightseeing. We have been operating this tour for over 3 years now and we have received mostly positive feedback from our customers. The tour takes a maximum of 24 passengers, which we believe is not too many for a food and wine tour.

The tour includes a visit to some smaller boutique wineries that provide excellent wine tasting experiences. Firstly, TeAro Estate is a family owned & operated winery and we sit down to a structured wine tasting. We include a visit to Maggie Beer’s Farm Shop, which is owned by a famous Australian chef and food expert and then head to Lambert Estate, which is also a family run winery. Here, we enjoy a seated wine tasting experience with a Barossa food platter followed by a very generous Barossa lunch. We finish the day at Pindarie Estate, for further wine tasting in an Australian homestead style building.

We are very sorry to read that you didn’t enjoy this tour and thought it didn’t represent good value for money.

Thanks and kind regards,
Product Development Team

Service: The tour was great! The whole process was very easy - picked up at our adelaide hotel on bus, dropped off at ferry, picked up from ferry. Then driven around for the Island for 2 days, dropped back off at ferry then picked up and bussed back to our hotel in adelaide. Our guide Jen was very knowledgeable about all things KI from the people to the animals, trees and plants. The accommodation at Vivonne Bay was up to standard! The places we visited were superb and the activities were fun. Thanks for an awesome 2 days!! The only negative was that it was a too short of time to fit everything KI has to offer in! If possible a 3 or 4 day tour would be great!!
