Most Popular Itineraries For Private Group Tours
Have you been given the unnerving task of organising a large group outing??
Not sure where to start? Or how to please every Tom, Dick & Harry??
Creating awesome day tours are kind of our thing! So let’s run through some options for you & your crew to help make this occasion effortless, stress-free & seriously FUN!
Before we get into the nitty-gritty, there’s a couple of things we’ll need from you:
1) RSVPs
First up, you’ll need to get a rough idea on how many people will be attending so we can secure the correct mode of transport. If your numbers change by a few - don’t worry! We can always adjust your booking accordingly later down the track.
- Groups of 11 or less will travel in our 12 seater bus (our driver / guide + your crew)
- Groups of 12- 24 people will travel in a 25 seater bus (subject to availability) *
- Groups larger than 24 can travel in a combination of buses. Alternatively a charter bus can be arranged for XL groups.
2) Select the date/s
It’s great to have a 2 or 3 dates in mind when checking our availability (a first / second / third preference). With such a large group, we may not always be able to book the itinerary of your dreams on your desired date (some of our tasting venues can occasionally close for weddings and/or events, or we may already be booked out with another wine tour). By allowing some flexibility with your date - this helps us create the best possible day tour for you and your mates.
BEST ITINERARIES for large group tours
For groups over 12 people, we recommend visiting no more than 3 venues to ensure the day runs smooth & you feel 100% relaxed as you sip your way through each incredible venue. Our 3 venue tour will also allow time for lawn games, a few drinks with lunch and of course an iconic group pic at the lookout (quite possibly Queensland’s best backdrop)! For groups under 12 people - our 4 venue winery tour is also a hot pick.
Itinerary times will vary depending on your pick up location & choice of itinerary, however, most of the below tours would depart around 9:00am & return by 5:00pm. Custom timeframes can be arranged (for those who appreciate a later start).
All of our tours include private transport, snacks and water on the bus + additional stops to lookouts & other points of interest.
