driver started the day by confirming our hotel. and had been mentioning it the whole day. at 1st it was funny but it became insulting after a few hrs. I told him the hotel didn’t look that bad when I was booking it online, and explained that we usually go to cheap hotels on trip and spend money on tours but was still insulated the whole trip. quick mt lofty summit 1hr hahndorf 10min goolwa 2hrs victor harbour 10 min chocolate store drop off at glenelg. very long time in victor harbour and no time for Mclaren. we asked if we will have time for a wine tasting in Mclaren but was told couple of time that it is not a wine tour. we understand that but an option was given on the itinerary hence the reason why I booked the tour. he drove us to a chocolate factory in maclaren and only stayed for 10min. he said we can still have a quick wine tasting while they wait. me and my husband both felt bad to make him wait and decided not to do it. he offered to drive us to glenleg beach and decided to get the tram back not because we wanted to see the beach but we can’t wait to get off the van. all negative comments built up at the end that I regret booking the tour.
Great tour. Live commentary presented in an entertaining way. A good day seeing a number of things outside Adelaide. The tour is run efficiently and there is good value for money. Small group so very personal. We chose the full day highlights tour and were glad we did. Time to stroll in Hahndorf after a very enjoyable morning tea. Also time in Victor Harbor and some very nice eating establishments to choose from especially for fish and chips.
I did like the tour even though you sit quite a long time in the bus. But you see a lot of the beautiful scenery around Adelaide. We had at each of the places we visited enough time to have a look around. Paul, our driver, had a lot of information to tell about the area. He also knows a lot of jokes, which some people enjoyed and some didn't....
Great day out, Peter’s commentary was very good.. Detoured via Mt Lofty which was a bonus but missed out on Mclaren Vale. Perhaps less time in Victor Harbour ? Also no coffee and cake at Hahndorf which was in the brochure. Loved travelling through the back roads where there are so many beautiful towns all with beautiful historical buildings. I would recommend this trip to others.
