Coonawarra Experiences

Coonawarra Experiences offers bespoke and tailored luxury touring options escorting visitors on immersive wine adventures where guests explore the culture and traditions of wine and the region. We take our guests behind the scenes, where they meet the winemakers, taste the yet to be released wines and get to know the people who make the Coonawarra and Limestone Coast tick. Our guests connect with the local flavours of the Limestone Coast and discover the passion of local producers. Our itineraries are built on authentic local experiences and the insights, experience, and relationships of local partners who share our passion. Together with these experts we carefully select properties, restaurants, and activities, which represent hidden treasures of the Limestone Coast. We are passionate about our base, the Coonawarra, sharing the stories and history of the Coonawarra, describing how it was established and revealing the pioneers who shaped the region, known for its world class Cabernet Sauvignon.

Hello! 

I'm Simon and my wife, Kerry, we are the team behind Coonawarra Experiences. We started visiting Coonawarra and the greater Limestone Coast coming over from inner city Melbourne well over ten years ago having a keen interest in the wines of the region. We quickly fell in love with the town, the people and of course the stunning wines that Coonawarra has to offer.

We saw that there was a gap in the market for quality tailored touring experiences and wanted to start a business that would fulfil this need. Neither of us had any experience in tourism, but we did have strong backgrounds in corporate management, sales, and processes that really made a difference to starting and building a business from the ground up.

In August of 2017, Coonawarra Experiences was born and we have now offer not only bespoke wine tours, but also, multi day options in multi regions across the Limestone Coast.  We partner with amazing local businesses that include iconic wineries, stunning accommodation, family-owned bespoke agriculture tours, and of course, fantastic dining venues. We've been able to highlight the region to both domestic and international visitors from around the world that didn't have the option of having a handcrafted journey of the Limestone Coast previously. 

Our reviews showcase time and time again our passion for the region and the people we work with.

Let us look after your Limestone Coast experience and we'll make sure you leave the region wanting to return as soon as you can.
