    A perfect day in the Swan Valley

    Fantastic tour! Paul customised the tour to match our requirements exactly. The vegan tastings and lunch were perfect. He had friendly contacts at each stop who selected the ideal wines for us. Definitely recommended.

    Response from the operator: Hi Ulla, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. I'm very pleased you and Rob enjoyed the day with me in the Swan Valley. It was fun coming up with a vegan itinerary for you guys and I'm sure it'll come in handy again in the future. I look forward to seeing you both on your next visit to Perth. Cheers, Paul

    Excellent throughout and highly recommend

    Paul was a fantastic host with great knowledge of both wine and the history of the region and each winery. Swan Valley seems a hidden gem with great wines and Paul highlited its wineries to best effect. I would highly recommend this tour and on the basis of the experience, I believe any tour from this company would be a well curated and valued experience.

    Response from the operator: Hi George, Thank so much for taking the time to leave us a review. I'm very pleased you and Jacqueline enjoyed your day with me in the Swan Valley. It's always a pleasure showing wine lovers around my local wine region and imparting some of the local history. See you on your next visit. Cheers, Paul

    A great day of food and wine with a great guy

    We had an absolutely fantastic day with Paul exploring the swan river wine region. He picked us up at our hotel promptly in a spacious and spotlessly clean ford van and we headed out exploring. We visited three different wineries for tastings, focusing on small boutique places with outstanding wines, had a fantastic lunch at a 4th winery overlooking the vineyards and even stopped off to try amazing local honey before finishing at a large chocolate producer. Paul provided lots of great information along the way and was a superb guide. While the swan river is tiny in terms of Australian wine production, the quality and variety were first rate. We have had many guided wine excursions around the globe in Europe, South Africa and South American yet there’s always something new to discover in a new place from the Chenin Blanc to the blends. Highly recommended

    premium experience on guided tours of Perth, Fremantle and the wineries of the Swan River region.

    As I´ve posted on Google: Paul at Up Close and Local Tours was easy to communicate with, and he was quick to adapt his guided tours to meet my needs. With a two-day (overnight) cruise stop, he met me right off the ship and we visited the beach and park as we moved through Fremantle to Perth. After lunch at a local brewery, we tackled the visites to the four churches I needed to visit and photograph, and then we did a walking tour of Perth with a focus on murals and street art before heading back to the port. The following day, after a light breakfast, we walked around Fremantle, sightseeing the port, old jail, park, and colonial buildings. Then into the comfortable van and off to the Swan River wineries, where I was able to sample at 4 establishments (where Paul was well known as a premier tour guide.) A stop at a distillery on the way back to the ship left me appreciating his guiding skills as well as the safe and careful driving through both country and city. Definitely a premium experience, I can strongly recommend Up Close and Local Tours for a customized, unique exposure to Perth, Fremantle and the wineries of the region.

    Great day experiencing the local produce and animal wildlife

    The tour was definitely our highlight in Perth. Paul was highly knowledgeable and epitomizes the word ‘local’. Through his networks,””We managed to save a ton of time at Caversheim and he was flexible to cater to our needs and requests. We managed to visit the Caversheim park, a winery/brewery, chocolate factory, honey, coffee roaster, and a nuts/nougat shop. Never felt rushed and he guided us throughout. Look no further than Up Close and Local as your private tour operators

    Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Perth.

    How much does Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth cost?

    +

    Prices start at $347 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Perth usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 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 Perth is not rushed.

    Is Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 85 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Perth, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth?

    +

    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 Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth?

    +

    Around 30 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 Perth 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 Perth and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth 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 Perth 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 Perth?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Perth experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Optus Stadium Tour, Discover Perth Walking Tour: History, Art, Local Insights + More!, Pinnacles Desert Sunset Dinner and Stargazing Tour. 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 Perth?

    +

    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 Perth?

    +

    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 Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth?

    +

    Included: Private transportation; Option to include a main-course winery lunch at the time of booking; Curated wine and canapé pairing experience; Local and knowledgeable personal tour guide; and Sparkling or still bottled water. Not included: If the included lunch option is not selected, lunch will be at your own expense on the day. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth include hotel pickup?

    +

    What languages is Private Tour: Premium Swan Valley Wine Tour from Perth offered in?

    +

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
