Ganztägige private Barossa Valley Wine Bus Tour

3 of us had a great time on this Barossa tour. Jeff our driver was informative and a safe driver, the rest of the fellow drinkers on the bus were fun which made for a fun day. 4 wineries plus Maggie Beers was enough for the day with a couple of standout wineries, lunch we got to pick from a decent list of options. All in all we had a fantastic day.

We didn't have a very pleasent experience unfortunately. We organised a group tour of 10 people including kids. First thing, our tour guide asked if we'd like to cancel the Viator booking and give him a reduced amount, cutting the business off. From the get go we've been hushed by our tour guide because we were speaking in our native tongue with the comment of "practice your English". We were very taken aback by this unfortunate comment. We spend most of the day with inappropriate jokes (even though we had kids with us), misogynistic comments and unprofessional attitude. We were told that the itinerary on the website was not fixed. Whenever we asked where the next stop is, we've been given vague answers. When we asked when the drop off time will be, the answer was "whenever I get tired" by our tour guide. We had a lovely tasting at Chateau Yaldara, however the other locations we visited didn't fulfill the expectation.

We had a private tour personalised to our needs based on our request. It was an amazing day taking in Hahndorf and Barossa valley thanks to Paul’s planning and the wonderful driver and guide Gerry who picked us up on the dot. She was so knowledgeable witty and funny, full of anecdotes about the region. She went out of her way to fulfill all our requests and made sure we had a wonderful time. We had more than a full day’s worth.
