Some of the world's oldest vines. Yours for the day.
Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, the Adelaide Hills and Clare Valley, chauffeur-driven and door to door. Bring your own itinerary, or ask us to help shape the day. For larger private parties, Group Wine Tour | Transport Only is also available.
Why Tour With Us
The difference between a good day in wine country and a forgettable one is almost never the wine. It is whether the day belonged to you: whether you could spend a little longer at a cellar door you liked or enjoy an unhurried lunch, where the agreed booking duration and schedule allow.
Our Private Wine Tours are chauffeur-driven, door-to-door and flexible around the day you want. Many guests come to us with their own itinerary, which we are happy to follow. If you would like help shaping the route, choosing suitable stops or arranging reservations, LORQEN can assist on request.
No fixed circuit. No shared minibus. No shared timetable.
Two Ways to Tour
Private tours are flexible around your own itinerary, with planning assistance available on request. For larger groups, LORQEN also provides chauffeur-driven wine-region transport tailored to your planned itinerary.
Bring your own itinerary, or tell us what you enjoy and we can help shape the day. Where requested, we can also assist with winery, tasting and lunch reservations. Start at a time that suits your booking, and enjoy a flexible itinerary within the agreed tour duration.
Group Wine Tour | Transport Only is for larger private parties travelling together on their own planned winery itinerary. LORQEN arranges suitable chauffeur-driven transport to the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Adelaide Hills, Clare Valley and other South Australian wine regions by arrangement. Tastings, meals and venue charges are not included unless specifically stated in your written quotation. Planning assistance can be provided on request where practical.
Where We Go
Adelaide has several major wine regions within easy reach of the city. Visit one properly, or link two across a single day.
Some of the oldest continuously producing vines on earth, with a mix of historic estates, single-vineyard producers and smaller cellar doors. The Barossa is well suited to a full day, giving you more time between tastings, lunch and travel.
Vineyards running toward the coast, architecturally distinctive cellar doors and a strong concentration of organic and biodynamic producers. McLaren Vale works well for a half or full day and can be paired naturally with a long lunch or coastal stop.
Cool-climate country around 30 minutes from Adelaide. Elevated, green and unhurried, the natural pairing for a half-day tour, an afternoon that starts late, or a first day in South Australia when the flight lands at noon.
A quieter, more rural wine region north of the Barossa, and home to some of Australia's finest Riesling. Rolling hills, heritage stone towns and a generally quieter wine-region experience than the regions closer to Adelaide. It is the longest drive of the four regions, so an early departure is recommended to make the most of the day.
