Sensational trip to the McLaren Vale with a very informative light hearted tour guide. Lots of winery options, an absolute superb day - our 3rd tour 😎

We had high expectations for The Experience Tour with Trail Hopper, especially since a friend had previously used them for the Hop on and Off Option. Unfortunately, our tour was marred by a driver who was overly strict about timing. While the vineyards were delightful and attentive, our driver became negative when we informed him of a slight delay, despite others arriving later without issue. He claimed to be just the driver, yet the winery staff suggested he was the owner. Overall, the service seemed promising on paper but fell short in execution. I wouldn’t recommend this tour based on our experience, as realistically 60mins is a short window to enjoy a selection of wines and the ambience to do justice to the relaxed vibes of the wide range of cellar doors in the region.

We did the hop on hop experience with lunch and it was so good. We were surprised at how nice the food was at Oxenberry wines along with great wines. Bus driver was friendly and everything ran on time. Would defo do another one!! Highly recommend it

We started the day with Lorry giving us a fantastic run down on what wines McLaren Vale had to offer. He was very knowledgeable on what the wine region had to offer and recommended places to go. Lorry also had a great sense of humour making the trip a lot more enjoyable along the way. Thanks for a fabulous time! Highly recommend!

Classic fun day. Our driver and guide Lachy was sensational - humorous and informative. Ran the pick up and drop downs like clockwork. Great wineries that would normally remain unknown to the general public that have champion wines to sample are at the forefront. The pick up/ drop down format is extremely flexible. Do your research beforehand, select which ones you want to visit on the day and driver takes care of the rest. Simple and easy. You could take this tour more than once and get a different experience each time. A great way to see any of the wine regions around Adelaide.

This is my 5th time now with Trail Hopper! My friends and I was part of the the Saturday 6 April tour in McLaren Vale South which was lead by our friendly and knowledgable drive Nathan (Nate). Nate was easy going and shared great personal insights about the region which was interesting and helped to enhance our experience on the tour. The tour ran right on schedule which was great. We visited 4 cellar doors on this new route and enjoyed the wines, particularly the Grapple wine/cider from Oxenberry and wonderful service at Hastwell & Lightfoot. Overwall, the cellar doors we visited were peaceful and not too overly croweded - great for insta photo opportunities. Looking forward to join Trail Hopper again soon.

We went on a Tuesday when most wineries are closed but we're still able to find some that were open . Brett was an exellent driver/ tour guide . We had a cheese platter at Fox Creek winery that was great . The tour left on time at 10 am and we're always on time to pick up and drop off . Everywhere we went the staff was very friendly and helpful . It was a wonderful day and can highly recommend
