Glide through Australia's most revered wine region in a private small-group setting, tasting icon Shiraz and Riesling at boutique cellar doors before a long, indulgent lunch at a vineyard estate restaurant.
What to expect
Your day begins with a scenic 1-hour drive through the rolling Barossa ranges before arriving at your first boutique cellar door for a hosted tasting of small-batch, estate-grown wines. You'll visit three to four producers across the valley, with your guide providing context on each family's legacy and winemaking philosophy. A long, leisurely lunch at a premium vineyard restaurant anchors the day — think wood-fired lamb, local cheeses, and matched Barossa vintages. The return journey winds through picturesque Seppeltsfield Road, lined with 160-year-old date palms.
Good to know
Barossa Valley is approximately 70 km from the cruise terminal at Outer Harbor — allow 1 hour each way. Departures are timed to your ship's all-aboard. Pre-book well in advance; small-group spots fill fast on popular sailing dates.
