On this small group, half day Swan Valley wine tour, we visit four wineries that are all family owned, and have been hand-picked by us for their quality and history within the region. Take time to discuss the wines - sometimes with the winemaker themselves - and learn about the Swan Valley's history as Australia's second oldest wine growing region.

The wineries we select can change daily to ensure that you get the best possible experience on each day, and at each winery, and our guaranteed small groups mean that we have access to wineries that won't accommodate the big tour buses - so you get away from the regular beaten path and receive a more memorable and intimate tasting experience.

Departing Perth City at approx 12.20pm, the afternoon is set at a relaxed pace so that we have plenty of time for questions and discussion, you will also enjoy an included afternoon cheese platter featuring local West Australian cheeses to compliment your wine tasting.

All tastings are included in your tour, including reserve and award winning wines, and you will have the chance to sample a wide range of quality wines - everything from a Verdelho to a Durif to a Muscat, and even a few surprises you may not expect to see in this wine region. Most of the wines you will try are produced small batch, so the only place you can find them is at the cellar door.

While we may be serious about our wine, you can rest assured this is definitely a fun afternoon meeting the producers and discovering the real gems of the Swan Valley.

This tour is guaranteed maximum of 12 people, so that you get a personal and memorable experience.

NEED TO KNOW.

Tours are max 11 people (and sometimes less) which means we get access to venues that won't take the big bus groups.
For the comfort of all guests, our wine tours are adults 18+ only, and our food tours are 16+. For touring with children, please see our private tour options.
Our tours are not 'cookie cutter' and no two days are the same! We visit small businesses that offer a genuine and authentic local experience. This means sometimes we may need to switch things up and while each tour may be slightly different, you will always get inclusions that are the equivalent (or better!).

What people say about this tour...

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed a wonderful afternoon tasting boutique wines in the Swan Valley for our first trip. Paul was an extremely affable, knowledgeable and charming host who made the trip effortless and a lot of fun. The small group of 7 made for an intimate tour of the smaller family run wineries. Thanks Paul for the great experience.

It was clear that Paul new the background and history of each of the wineries as well as the staff who worked there. We were really impressed with all four of the wineries, we’ve done many tours in the valley and these were mainly new to us. We appreciated the fact that it was a smaller sized tour with a really attentive and knowledgeable guide. Five stars!

I have been to Swan Valley many times, this has to be the best. I really enjoyed myself at the boutique wineries and they are all unique in their own ways. This is my second trip with Up Close and Local Tours and I will definitely be seeing Paul and Shannon again.

As a wine lover, but not a connoisseur, this was the ideal way to learn more from passionate and dedicated producers and sample some excellent wines all under the guidance and exceptional organisation of our host, Paul. Enjoyed everything about this trip and will definitely introduce our friends and visitors for further trips.

There was something for everyone in our group of 6. Fantastic to visit some wineries we never knew existed and I really appreciated the focus on smaller boutique wineries rather than the larger ones I've visited in the past. Paul was a charming and relaxed host, who clearly loves what he does.
