Danny C was our guide and he was ultra friendly and helpful as well as knowledgeable about all of the places that we went. He could not have done more for us. The small bus was ideal and we got to know the other group with us well and ended up laughing all the way back to town.

We were fortunate enough to be the only participants of the tour (choosing a quiet day in the week) and were thrilled that the company continued with the tour when many would have cancelled. Danny was very knowledgeable about the area and made the journey to the Barossa fly by with his tales of first settlers and the history of Adelaide and surrounds.

Once in the Barossa we enjoyed guided tastings at Chateau Tanunda and Langmeil wines. Our fantastic lunch (included in the booking) was served at Wanera with some more lovely wine!
After lunch we visited our third and final winery (our choice to stop at 3!) Thorn-Clarke wines. Another excellent guided tasting.
To finish off the day we visited Maggie Beer’s farm shop for a photo opportunity and much needed coffee.
A really amazing day! read less - Tamm66

What I loved about this tour was mixing up the day with a combination of sight seeing at Mt Lofty, winery visit, cheese sampling at Udder delights, winery visit, a visit to Melba’s and chocolate samples before a filling lunch at the German Pub in Hahndorf and then an hour of free time sight seeing before a final winery visit. Well worth it and highly recommended. read less

We were picked up on time from our hotel by Danny C and warmly welcomed. To our surprise, my husband and I were the only two on the tour that day so that we in fact got a private tour for a small group price! Danny C happily shared his knowledge of the wineries and the region as a whole, having been raised there. The tour was well organised in every aspect. The tour was interesting, enjoyable and flexible as we were given choices of wineries to explore. We went to five wineries (Fox Creek, Leconfield & Richard Hamilton, Wirra Wirra, Serafino and Coriole), all very different but all very accommodating and professional. We particularly enjoyed the personalised service from Sasha at Fox Creek (and the cheese board), the laughs at Wirra Wirra and 5-star lunch at the beautiful Serafino Winery Restaurant. We decided to forego the last three scheduled wineries in favour of a coastal tour from Seacliff to Glenelg. Danny was happy to accommodate. We were then conveniently dropped off at our hotel. We had a wonderful day and would highly recommend this tour. Thanks Danny C! read less

The tour took us to three wineries. The second was Langmeil, which was our favourite.
The lunch and cheese stops were welcome after all the wine. I had a tasty kangaroo fillet steak.
We managed a trip to a Maggie Beers farm at the end as well, which Danny kindly included after the group discussed it.

Of the 4 wineries we visited, Fox Creek and Leconfield wineries had a superior list of wines on their tasting lists
We appreciated very much the complimentary serving of cheese and cracker from Danny.
We were delighted that the two wineries mentioned had a spakling red.This is not meant to downgrade the excellent riesling, shiraz and cabernet sauvignon that were on the tasting list.
The reds on the tasting list would be given high ratings by guests.
It is just that we do not find sparkling shiraz or cabernet sauvignon in Singapore, where we come from.
It was like Christmas had come early in July this year.
The wine tasting and lunch at Leconfield was very nice. We enjoyed the pate and the cheeses that went well with our glass of wine.
Thanks to Danny for sharing with us a good place for seafood at dinner time.
We took up his recommendation on the seafood restaurants at Glenelg Pier.
We thoroughly enjoyed the oysters and seafood platter.
The tour with Danny (Topfoodandwinetours) was a delightful experience
Topfoodandwinetours was the only company that asked for the Hotel that guests can be picked up, in its online booking process.
The pick-up time at the named hotel is confirmed in the tour ticket.
This makes it very convenient for guests. read less - G1160UZadamb

McLaren Vale is definitely a region worth visiting, offering its own unique charms. Danny selected some great smaller wineries that add to the uniqueness and offer a more personal experience.
