We had a wonderful two-person wine tour with John for my wife Natasha's bday on a short trip to Adelaide in late Nov 2022. John's tour company was referred to us from a few other groups who were unavailable. We had a lovely time with John for the day in McLaren Vale on a Friday with a curated tour across local wineries and lunch at the wonderful Salopian Inn (a must do). Dealing with John was easy, quick responses, and he was highly flexible to what we wanted to do including last min changes. Lovely to travel around in 5-star comfort where John would drop you at the door and be waiting with an umbrella if needed for safe return to the car. Highly recommend if you are looking for more of a personal touch and great local knowledge. Make sure you do Oliver's Taranga which was a highlight of the day suggested by John (we joined their wine club). 5 stars.

Thank you for your extensive review Kelly, we loved having you guys tour the McLaren Vale with us.
So pleased you enjoyed the day even though it was wet.
We are looking forward to helping you again if you visit Adelaide some time. Maybe we could tour our another wine region like the Barossa Valley or Langhorne Creek.

My husband and I enjoyed a great day out in the McLaren Vale Wine region on a private tour with John. Well worth the money. We planned our itinerary jointly but John is also happy to plan an itinerary for you. There were a couple of places we were keen to visit and then John made a number of other suggestions based on what we had shared with him regarding the type of tour we wanted and the type of wines we wanted to try. John is very knowledgeable and has great knowledge about the local wineries. I would definitely recommend using Best Wine Tours.

Always pleasing to receive positive feedback after the tour has been completed.
We always try to share our knowledge with our guests... this information makes the difference between a professional private wine tour and other operators.
Thank you for recommending us, being a family owned and operated business it means a lot!

We had an amazing day with John exploring McLaren Vale and visiting some extraordinary wineries which John suggested . Overall seamless service and great company. We highly recommend Best Wine Tours for a terrific experience.
Yesterday, John’s wife Mary took us to a few wineries in the Adelaide Hills and we thoroughly enjoyed that too.

We had a fantastic day with John! He is extremely knowledgeable and a lot of fun, we were chatting the whole way and he gave us some tips about each winery to help tailor our experience to our likes. He even took some photos of us and managed to keep us on schedule :) We felt very well taken care of and really enjoyed his company. Highly highly recommend !!
love from the two girls with colourful hair :). Thanks John!!

Hey hey, thanks for the great review.
We certainly had a busy day sampling, tasting and eating our way through McLaen Vale. The five hours went so quickly and with so much more to see and experience I invite you to tour again. If not to McLaren Vale then maybe to the Adelaide Hills, Barossa Valley or Langhorne Creek.
We are so lucky in Adelaide to have all these fantastic wine regions at our door.
Kind regards
John

We had an amazing two days with John. One in the Mclaren Vale and one in the Barossa.
John was very knowledgeable about the area and the wine's. Before our tours he contacted me to inquire about our interests and made the most of our time.
He was very flexible and the tour changed and extended to suit us, his recommendations were bang on and the 4 of us thoroughly enjoyed our two days.
I would have no hesitation in recommending John as your wine/tour expert and even though we had a non drinker with us we will use him again.
Thanks John see you next trip.

Had an amazing day with John who knew all about the Mclaren Vale area. He was very flexible and customised our experience according to our wine preferences. He knew all the winery staff well and we were treated to a lot of tastings that should have been charged. 10/10 would recommend

Had a superb day out. Picked John's brains as to where to go and he delivered in spades! Went to a couple we chose but John took us to a couple of off the beaten track gems. Great choices. Was given an insight into the vineyards as John was very knowledgeable but also given space to enjoy our time together. Don't hesitate- just book!!

My two girlfriends and I had an even better day than we imagined. Constant laughs, learned a lot, John was a true gentleman and had a perfect balance of taking us to places we wanted to go while also making suggestions based on his local knowledge. Highly recommend. Will be back to do Barossa tour for sure. Thanks again!!

Best Wine Tours run by John and Mary really is the perfect way to visit the wine cellars, being able to visit and test the wines at your own pass in style and comfort. Highly recommended and a day to remember..
