We actually did two tours with this company and both were fantastic. The first one was an impromptu tour that was quickly organized when our tour ship was supposed to go elsewhere and ended up with an extra day in Adelaide. We did an Adelaide city tour, followed by a drive to Lofty Point, the highest point in the area. Our guide, Peter was great and stopped along the road, when he found a koala sleeping in the crook of a tree branch.
We next went to a town called Hanhdorff and had about 2 hours to wonder around.
Then it was back to the ship.
It was a nice tour, the guide was great and the company was nice to put it together at such short notice.
The next day we did the winery tours with lunch.
This was also a great tour. Our guide today was named Thomas and he was quite entertaining.
He stopped first at a reservoir that had a parabolic wall, where we could hear someone whisper from one side to the other.
There was a wild kangaroo in the park that we were excited to see. A Thomas pointed out mobs of kangaroo under trees to us as we drove on.
He took us to 3 wineries and we had lunch at one of them. All three wineries were different and the wines were all good. The place we had lunch, a winery called Lamberts, served us lunch during the tasting. We had no choice in lunch and they brought out pizzas to the table. They were good, but there was nothing else to eat and if you didn’t want pizza, there was nothing else. Dessert was a cookie from a package. Really not a great lunch. The port we were served called The Chocolatier was amazing and we bought a bottle.
Each winery was different and all of them were very nice. You are not allowed to walk through the vines here because of possible contamination to the vines from dirt on our shoes or clothes.
