TOURS
We can advise on self-drive itineraries and guided tours in our
luxury 4WD (up to 6 passengers), selected from the Activities section
below. We can arrange a half day or full day of touring, travelling
either to the North or to the South, depending on your preferences.
Our guided tours include lunch and allow for an informative venture
without the concern of mixing wine with driving. One popular feature is
a private session with a Clare Valley winemaker to taste the wines,
learn some of the finer points about varietals, and take a look at the
vineyard and winemaking facilities.

"As a special treat Marianne will prepare a
moveable feast to be enjoyed alfresco on a hill overlooking the
property – the ultimate Outback culinary experience.
"For those who
would like a deeper appreciation of the local wine scene, the
property offers guided tours to the Clare Valley, or (will) make the
necessary arrangements for guests who would prefer to drive
themselves – including lunch bookings, a suggested itinerary and
introductions to prominent Clare Valley winemakers."
