Canberra Wine Tour

4 hours to 1 day

Overview

This full-day wine tour heads out into Canberra’s cool-climate wine region for a relaxed look at the local cellar door scene. You’ll travel with a local guide and visit a mix of wineries, with the chance to try the region’s well-known Shiraz and Riesling along with other varieties. Transport is included, as well as pickup from major hotels and motels, so it’s an easy option if you want to taste your way through the area without sorting out a driver.

Why backpackers love it

This suits travellers who want a proper wine region day trip without hiring a car or planning a route. Hotel and motel pickup keeps things simple, and having a local guide means you get some context rather than just being dropped at cellar doors. It’s not a cheap quick tasting run, but if you’re keen to sample a good range of wines in one day and want the logistics handled, it’s a straightforward way to do it.

What to expect

The day usually starts with pickup in a comfortable tour vehicle before heading through the countryside to the first wineries. A typical itinerary includes two winery visits before lunch at the Murrumbateman Inn, which serves bistro-style food, followed by more cellar door stops in the afternoon. Depending on timing, the tour generally visits four to six wineries across the day. Each tour can take a slightly different route, so the exact lineup may vary.
