Thinking about a Margaret River wine tour? Here are honest, straightforward answers to the questions we hear most from first-time travellers planning their trip south from Perth.
How much does it cost?
Our 3-day tour starts from $850 per person and is all-inclusive — covering return transport from Perth, two nights’ accommodation, meals, six winery visits, cave and wildflower tours, cheese tastings and all entry fees. There are no surprise extras.
Where does it depart from?
We pick up in the Perth CBD and travel south together, with the scenic three-hour journey — past the famous Busselton Jetty — forming part of the experience.
What’s included in the tour?
Accommodation, six handpicked wineries across sub-regions like Wilyabrup, a limestone cave tour, seasonal wildflower or forest stops, artisan cheese tastings, meals and all transport. You can read a full breakdown in our guide to the six wineries we visit.
How big are the groups?
Deliberately small and personal. Fewer travellers means a relaxed pace, easy conversation with your guide, and access to boutique cellar doors that large coaches simply can’t reach.
Do I need to know about wine?
Not at all. Our guides explain everything in friendly, plain language, so complete beginners and seasoned collectors alike feel right at home. Curiosity is all you need to bring.
What will we eat and where do we stay?
Meals showcase the region’s produce — think long vineyard lunches, local cheese and fresh seasonal fare — and accommodation is comfortable and well located near the coast. Let us know any dietary requirements when you book and we’ll take care of them.
Is it just drinking all day?
Not at all. Between the six cellar doors you’ll explore a limestone cave, walk beneath the karri trees of Boranup Forest, visit Cape Leeuwin and stop at artisan food producers. Plenty of water, food and fresh air keep the pace relaxed and enjoyable.
When is the best time to go?
Any season has its charm — summer sun, autumn vintage, cosy winter reds with whales offshore, or spring wildflowers. There’s genuinely no wrong time to visit. Still unsure? Our guide to the best time of year compares the seasons in detail.
