done. Highly recommend this wine tour." Alison (January 2026)

★★★★★ "Wow, just wow. We had an amazing day, Charles was great, made the day perfect. Do yourself a favor and spend a day with Charles." Kay (October 2025)
★★★★★ "Each of the five wineries we visited, he was able to tell us about the history and the people. He obviously got on well with the staff from each one, even calling out to them by name in the vineyards... Seven Hills winery, Father Kelly then came over to say hello to us and show us around the crypt giving us even more information... We had a wonderful day, thank you Charles. I would recommend this business to anyone wanting a relaxing Clare Valley wine tour full of fun and wine." Phillipa (September 2025)
★★★★★ "Charles was incredibly knowledgeable and put together a fantastic itinerary that suited our group of four. We loved discovering new wineries we might not have found on our own, and each stop felt thoughtfully chosen. It made the whole experience effortless and unforgettable." Brooke (August 2025)
★★★★★ "Four of us had a fantastic day exploring the Clare Valley with Charles. We couldn't have asked for a more friendly, funny or well informed guide...I would not hesitate to recommend Charles as a tour guide and hope to take his Barossa Valley tour next time I'm in South Australia" Justine (July 2025)
★★★★★ "Charles is absolutely fantastic! This weekend was the second time I’ve gone through Valley Wine Tours, and can’t fault him at all! Will continue to go through Charles for future tours, he’s always ensuring that you have the best possible day and always many laughs!" Maddy (June 2025)
★★★★★ "Excellent wine tour with Charles – highly recommended" Col L. (May 2025)
★★★★★ "It was our first time in Barossa Valley, and we are so grateful Charles was the one to show us around. He was so insightful, and funny at the same time. Our group of 4 would consider ourselves amateurs in terms of wine knowledge, and having such a cool tour guide made it very enjoyable. There wasn't a dull moment on the entire trip, Charles knew so much about everything, even non wine related! We can't wait to come back one day! We would definitely recommend." Monash Y. (April 2025)
