We visited the Salvadore Dali exhibition at "The Cube" in the McLaren Wine country, South Adelaide. Well worth a visit.

5.00We had visited the local information centre and were given the suggestion, whilst visiting the Mclaren Wine area, to have a look. We were so pleased we did. The exhibition was definitely something different, but the building itself and inside was eclectic. Views over the Wine country and out to the coast great. Restaurant and free wine tasting a bonus.

5.00This was the best tour we have done. Colin our driver was the best guide. Very knowledgeable about the local area and very informative. Wirra Wirra winery was the best as we got to learn about the grapes, the wine barrels and the wine making process.

5.00Our day exploring McLaren Vale and The Cube Experience was absolutely fantastic! The scenery, the wineries, and of course the unique architecture of The Cube made it a truly memorable experience. Everything was well-organised and ran smoothly, which made it easy to just relax and enjoy the day. A special mention goes to our driver and guide, Chris. He was incredibly professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the region, its history, and its wines. His insights really enriched the experience and made the day even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience the best of McLaren Vale.

5.00Great day out in the Mclaren Vale, Phil our guide and diver was informative, friendly and included everyone. We not only enjoyed his commentry but the trip did not feel rushed so you could start as strangers and end up as friends with Phil and your fellow tourists. The winery's are also well selected and give an amazing welcome and service too. Well recommended.
Fabulous wine tour

5.00We had an absolutely fantastic day out on this tour. Our group numbered only eight, but this made it super easy to form friendships. Our driver/guide Athol was friendly and informative which only added to the experience. Our first stop at the visitor's centre for coffee was a bit long, but it did allow us to get to know our fellow travelers a bit. The second stop was at the d'Arenberg Cube, which is similar in quirkiness to MONA in Hobart. It included the lowlight of the tour - forced to watch 10 minutes of a computer-generated video on a large wrap-around screen which was somehow meant to be representing the different wines of this maker. A bit boring! The tastings shortly after made up for this though. Our third stop was at Chalk Hill winery for lunch, and another round of tastings. The food was sublime, especially the first course of cold meats (second course was two types of pizza, also tasty), and the venue itself was magnificent. It is little wonder that it is becoming a popular wedding venue. The grounds are immaculate and the scenery around it is absolutely spectacular. This inclusion was the highlight of the day. It was a very good decision by the tour operator to listen to previous feedback and have lunch here instead of at the Cube on a permanent basis. Beresford winery was our next stop, where the option of gin or beer tastings was offered as an alternative to wine. Our final stop was at Wirra Wirra, where a short tour of the factory including the history of the company preceded the tastings. Learning about the catapult was fun too! This venue was also very impressive in its own right. We enjoyed this tour more than the others we have done over the years - Barossa Valley also in South Australia, and Yarra Valley and Mornington Peninsula in Victoria. To Adelaide Sightseeing - thank you!
Highly recommend this tour

5.00What about a unique experience, the place is magical, art in the middle of the vineyards, the owner has seen over, congratulations, I am Italian I come from an area of Collio where there are several wineries, but this is unique. A special thanks to Nadia who explained us with great skill and cordiality. The super testing, we took a couple of bottles that we will open in Italy with our friends. Make a visit that deserves
