What you'll see and do
Adelaide Hills
Leave Adelaide behind and travel through the scenic Adelaide Hills as we make our way into the Barossa Valley. With a maximum of 20 guests, the day is designed to feel personal from the outset, with time to enjoy each experience rather than rushing from one cellar door to the next.

Kies Family Wines
Our first experience is at Kies Family Wines, a sixth-generation Barossa family winery in Lyndoch. Here, we step beyond the usual cellar door and into the private barrel room for a structured tasting. Kies produces its wines from its own estate-grown fruit, making this a great introduction to both the family and the winemaking traditions of the Barossa.

Chateau Tanunda
From Kies, we continue to Chateau Tanunda, one of the Barossa’s great historic landmarks. Established in 1890, its impressive bluestone winery has been at the heart of Barossa winemaking for more than 135 years. Enjoy a self-guided experience through the estate followed by a structured tasting, bringing together the history, architecture and wines of this remarkable property.
45 minutes here · Admission included
For lunch, we head to Melba’s in Angaston for a relaxed regional platter showcasing local produce, accompanied by your choice of a glass of Yalumba wine or soft drink. There’s plenty of time to enjoy the food, conversation and surroundings, making lunch a genuine part of the experience rather than simply a stop along the way.
45 minutes here · Admission included
Yalumba
Before we leave Melba's, enjoy an exclusive private Yalumba port and chocolate tasting, bringing together Yalumba fortified wine and locally made Melba’s chocolate. It’s a special addition to the day and a chance to enjoy two well-known South Australian names in a completely different way.
15 minutes here · Admission included
Rosenvale Vineyards
From Angaston, we continue through the Barossa to Rosenvale Vineyards. This three-generation family winery is passionate about producing wines from its own vineyards, and you’ll have the chance to taste a selection while hearing more about the family and their connection to the land.

Our journey through the Barossa finishes along iconic Seppeltsfield Road. Sit back and enjoy the palm-lined scenery while your knowledgeable local guide shares the stories behind the road, its historic estates and the people who helped shape this part of the Barossa.

Good day
Disappointed in bus. Not comfortable for a long day. Melba’s platter was ok. Not imaginative or interesting. Too much bread. Pretzels ?? Too much wine tasting . Too long til lunch. Maybe coffee and walk in Tanunda to break it up. Saying all that it was an enjoyable day and Peter was good.

Great day in the Barossa
Our tour guide Jordan made the day. Kies winery was the highlight of the day. Lunch at Melba’s was great. The wine tasting at Rosedale was fabulous, very informative. I would recommend this tour without hesitation.

Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Adelaide.
How much does Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate cost?
+
Prices start at $135 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Adelaide usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Adelaide is not rushed.
Is Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 93 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 1,709 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Adelaide, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate?
+
Around 598 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Adelaide can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Adelaide and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Adelaide within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Adelaide?
+
On Outty we rank every Adelaide experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Adelaide Highlights, Hahndorf & McLaren Vale Wine Tasting and Sightseeing Tour, Barossa Valley Hop-On Hop-Off Wine Tour, Discover Barossa: 4 Wine Tastings, Gourmet Lunch, and Hidden Gems. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Adelaide?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Adelaide?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Premium Barossa Small Group Tour: Wine tasting, Lunch & Chocolate?
