Australian Wine Tours: Four Regions Compared

The Yarra Valley holds 53% of the 32,114 reviews in our Australian catalogue, and two 81 EUR listings there account for a third of the whole country. Both are day trips from Melbourne with wine, gin, whisky and chocolate, which says something about what an Australian wine tour often is. This page compares the four regions we cover, the Yarra Valley, the Barossa Valley, the Hunter Valley and Margaret River, on what they cost, how far each sits from its city and what the day contains. Each region has its own page with the listings; this one is for deciding which to open.

Prices are per person unless a listing is private. The private tours we opened are priced for the whole group, six or seven guests at most, so their 300 to 1,186 EUR cannot be set beside a 119 EUR seat on a minibus. Numbers were read from the catalogue on 30 September 2026, and the median is taken across all four regions together, so it describes Australia as a market rather than any one valley. Where a region has a different story, its own page tells it, with the operators, the lunch and the length of the day broken out listing by listing.
