Seeing the historic German village of Hahndorf, sampling wines at boutique wineries, and experiencing the Cube makes for a perfect McLaren Vale outing. Thank you to our guide Parry for spending this memorable day taking us to these sites!
Thank you! We’re so glad you enjoyed Hahndorf, the wineries, and the Cube, and had a memorable day with Parry as your guide
Great wineries and expert service, had a great day! Prompt pickup and delivery, happy that they ran our tour, with only the 2 of us! Magical day
Thank you! We're so glad you had a magical day — it was our pleasure to run the tour just for you both!
We had a great time on this tour with the wonderful driver Anil. He was very knowledgable and the van was so comfortable! We loved the Sew Sew Winery the best by far - the owners are wonderful and did such a great tasting session - full of knowledge and happy to answer all our questions! The fire was amazing too! Thank you (:
Thank you, Michelle! We're so glad you had a great time with Anil and enjoyed the Sew Sew Winery experience, we'll be sure to pass on your kind words!
Pete was a great tour guide in McLaren Valley outside Adelaide! We visited three wineries and Hansdorf - lovely part of southern Australia
Thanks so much, Lisa! We're glad you enjoyed McLaren Vale and Hahndorf with Pete! Such a beautiful part of SA!
We had a great day! Yash, our driver and guide was informative and accommodating, and really looked after us well. We recommend Bums on Seats tours unreservedly.
Thanks so much! We're happy you had a great day with Yash, he’ll be pleased to hear your kind words!
Good trip, driver good, not too chatty. Good variety of stops great lunch. Minibus was new but very cramped seating for tall people
Glad you enjoyed the trip and lunch! Sounds like the stops were a good mix, though the cramped seating might’ve been uncomfortable.
We were a group of 5 people who travelled from Melbourne and booked this tour as part of a 50th birthday celebration. We were supposed to have lunch at Oxenberry Farm wines but due to some unforeseen issue they had to change the venue at the last minute and took us to a cafe in a shopping centre next to Coles. When we should have been drinking wine and looking at a beautiful view, we were drinking water and looking out at a car park. We would have been happy to eat at any of the other wineries we visited, none of which were very busy but apparently this wasn't an option. Between the 5 of us we paid almost $1000 for this tour and while I understand that unexpected events make changes to the itinerary unavoidable at times, a Plan B more in line with what we thought we were paying for should have been found. We've contacted the tour company privately to express our disappointment and request some sort of compensation for the winery lunch we didn't receive but they keep saying they'll speak to management and no one ever gets back to us. The choice of lunch venue really impacted our enjoyment of the day, and for the company to then ignore our feedback is very unprofessional. Make sure you confirm your itinerary at the start of the day to avoid the same disappointment.
We're truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations, especially on such a special occasion. We understand how disappointing it must have been to have the lunch venue changed at the last minute, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this caused. While unexpected circumstances can sometimes lead to changes, we completely agree that the alternative should have been more in line with what was originally planned. We also regret that your concerns were not addressed promptly, and we appreciate your feedback. Your experience is important to us, and we will be reviewing this matter internally to ensure better communication and contingency planning in the future. If you'd like to discuss this further, please reach out again, and we will do our best to assist.
Fantastic experience! Recommend to everyone in the area! Fun time with Geoff. Great wines, great people, great food!!!
Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re glad you had such a fun time with Geoff and enjoyed the wines, food, and company. We hope to see you again soon!
We did two tours with Bums on Seats, both were fantastic. Our guides Manni and Deep were informative, welcoming, knowledgeable and all round amazing. I highly recommend this company for outstanding tours around Adelaide. Brad and Linda
Brad and Linda, we're thrilled you loved your tours! Manni and Deep are fantastic guides, and we're so glad you had such an amazing time. Your kind words mean the world to us. Thank you for choosing Bums on Seats!
It was essentially a chauffeur service to locations with very little commentary. Ok price wise with one person but in hindsight with two or more a hire car would have been better, cheaper and saw places at our own pace. Liked the “Cube”, but again could have driven there. For a whole day trip would have been great to be provided with a 50 cent bottle of water but was ok as we brought our own.
Thank you for your honest feedback. We apologize that the commentary wasn't as extensive as you'd hoped. For larger groups, a hire car can be a good option. We appreciate you highlighting the Cube and are happy you brought water!
