Private Coonawarra Tours
Your dates, your group, your interests — a Coonawarra and Limestone Coast trip designed from scratch, with a private vehicle and guide. Family-run since 1974.
Private Coonawarra Tours
Private and bespoke touring is what we do best. Rather than fit your trip to a fixed itinerary, we build the day — or the week — around your group, with a private vehicle and a guide who knows the region, the makers and the season. It’s the most flexible, and often the most rewarding, way to experience Coonawarra and the Limestone Coast. Family-run since 1974, we’ve been tailoring Australian trips for a long time. Every private tour is quoted to your plans.
