"  What a lovely holiday.  So glad I found you on Google.  The food and wine were wonderful and our accommodation was perfect" Grant family, Melbourne, Australia - April 2011- view more guest comments

Dates

We offer our discovery breaks year round, except in July and August when we operate our self-guided cycling breaks.  Each season here has its own merits and there will be differences in the countryside depending on when you visit.

From Easter through to the end of October, all the attractions in the area are open and there is always plenty to see and do.  From November to March we alter our tours slightly to allow for the shorter days and different weather conditions; if you would like to visit during this time please contact us so we can explain our winter tours in more detail.

We offer our Classic 3-day, 3-night tours starting on any day of the week (subject to availability), for 2-8 guests. If you would like a private tour just for your group, we are happy to do this.  We also offer private tours for guests with special interests - so if you want to spend more time visiting wineries, or focus on the many fabulous gardens in this area, we can plan a tour to do just that.  Finally, you may want to combine your discovery tour with some wine tasting or cycling.  If so, take a look at how we can help with this on one of our tailor made tours.

We don't have fixed dates for our tours, so let us know when you would like to visit and if we have space, we'll book you in!  Having said this, because we offer a reduced price for 4 or more guests on any tour, we'll always let you know what existing tours we have with space remaining, in case one may suit your plans - just ask.
