Swan Valley ture

Swan Valley is such a beautiful place to slow down, enjoy the vineyard views, taste some good wine, and simply enjoy the moment.

Selvom vi besøgte mange steder på én dag, og jeg forstår, at alle har forskellige præferencer, så vi måske ikke kunne blive længere de steder, vi bedst kunne lide, var jeg for det meste tilfreds med turen. Hotelafhentningen var meget praktisk, frokosten var lækker, og stederne var gode. På dagen oplevede vi den værste storm i det sydvestlige Australien i fem år, og bilen føltes meget ustabil på motorvejen. Heldigvis var vores guide, Cindy, meget erfaren og gennemførte hele turen uden problemer!

I took a cruise, chatted with people, drank some wine, and then went to a winery where I listened intently to explanations and drank a lot of wine. It would be great for wine lovers, and I really enjoyed having plenty of time.

The tour started at Pier 3 at Barrack Square, where the pickup for the cruise was punctual and well organised. The cruise itself was a lovely way to begin the day, with interesting commentary along the way. We were welcomed with a delicious glass of champagne, followed by three glasses of wine, as well as onboard lunch. We arrived at Mandoon Jetty at around 12.45pm, where we joined the bus tour for the afternoon. Our first stop was Windy Creek Estate, and wow, there were a lot of wines to taste! I counted easily around 15 different glasses of wine if you were game enough to try every single one. Next was Garbin Estate Wines, where, haha, there were another 10 or so wines available for tasting. After all that wine, we headed to Swan Valley Brewery for some beer and chips, which was a nice change of pace. Our final stop was the nearby Whistler's Chocolate Company & Cafe. We got back on the bus and returned to the city at around 5pm.

Family with two young kids, great experience on the tour with a fantastic tour guide! thank you!

We joined this local tour as a family of three and had a fantastic experience. The whole trip was very well organised and ran smoothly from start to finish. We visited the wildlife park and had the chance to feed the animals without needing to queue, which made the experience very relaxed and enjoyable. Lunch was fish and chips, which was nice, but we strongly recommend upgrading to the lobster as it was very fresh and definitely worth it. We also visited the desert, enjoyed an exciting off-road desert vehicle ride, and tried sandboarding. Everything was arranged very well, and the activities were fun and smooth. Overall, our family had a wonderful time. The tour was eye-opening, memorable, and gave us a great chance to experience the local scenery and activities. It was excellent value for money, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Mr. Dominic was a great tour guide and really enjoyed whole tour! The best tour ever!

Tim hentede os ved Barrack Square Jetty Pier nr. 4 – hvilket var tydeligt informeret og ret punktligt. Varevognen var komfortabel. Han sørgede også for flaskevand. Jeg elskede, at Tim tidligere havde arbejdet i Caversham Wildlife Park, hvilket betød, at hele turen derinde var præcis til tiden og velforberedt (tip: en pose foderpiller til at fodre kænguruerne og andre dyr). Vi spiste frokost på Mandoon Estate, hvor vi valgte vegetarisk mad. Maden blev serveret hurtigt, varm og lækker. Derefter fortsatte vi vores rejse til Margaret River Chocolate Company – Tim gav os nogle chokolader til gratis smagsprøver, og vi købte nogle som souvenirs. Senere besøgte vi Scarborough Beach, som var fantastisk, da vejret også var meget godt. Og vi afsluttede vores tur i Kings Park, spadserede rundt og tog et par mindeværdige billeder. Generelt forventes denne type gruppetur at være lidt forhastet, men den opfyldte vores mål for dagen.
