Bespoke wine experiences tailored exclusively for you. Personal sommelier, luxury transport, and access to Australia's most prestigious cellars.
About Private Wine Tours
A private wine tour with Cooee Tours is the ultimate Australian wine experience. Unlike group tours, every detail is crafted around your preferences — the regions you want to explore, the grape varieties you love, the pace that suits your group, and the level of luxury that makes the day truly special. Your dedicated sommelier guide will curate an itinerary that opens doors to prestigious wineries and private cellars that aren't accessible to the public or standard tour groups.
We offer private wine tours across every major Australian wine region: Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale in South Australia, Yarra Valley and Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, Hunter Valley in New South Wales, Margaret River in Western Australia, and Tasmania's cool-climate estates. Perfect for couples, anniversaries, honeymoons, corporate entertaining, and celebrations. For larger groups of 8+, see our group wine tours.

"The most incredible wine experience of our lives. Our sommelier knew everything about the Barossa and arranged access to wineries we could never visit on our own. The private barrel tasting at Henschke was a once-in-a-lifetime moment."
