With Tipsy Tours and Transfers’ Day in the South West, I experienced a unique introduction to this stunning region. From the moment we arrived, it was as if each sightseeing stop had been carefully curated – teaching me about every corner of its beauty!

Not only did Tipsy Tours show us wineries, but it also gave us an insight into the region’s lifestyle, culture and environment. The friendly and knowledgeable team shared wisdom and history as we cruised through the beautiful landscape. And, of course, they kept a close eye on safety throughout the journey through the Western Australian corner.

Thanks to Tipsy Tours, it was a fantastic day spent safely outdoors in style!

Where are Tipsy Tours and Transfers?

The Coastal Town is a beautiful region with a fantastic coastline; Augusta is only three and a half hours South of Perth and twenty minutes South of the famous tourist town, Margaret River.

 

 

What do Tipsy Tours offer?

Group tours: A group tour is a perfect day out. You are picked up from your accommodation and chauffeured in style in and around Augusta. You are guided to different wineries or breweries where you get to indulge in some of Western Australia’s great wines.

Lunch is provided during the tour, and the restaurant of the tour’s choice will satisfy immensely. There is more to the day than wines, however. You are guided to various local food outlets where you may get the chance to try a variety of local food supplies such as chocolate, olive oils or cheese.

At the end of the day, when everyone is a little tipsy from the tastings, you are safely taken back to your accommodation, where you can then enjoy your purchased wine in the luxury of your hotel.

A group tour costs $95 per person, lunch included.

 

 

Private tours are great for a large family, work gathering or sports club. It is a tour with a personal touch, it caters to up to 21 people, and once again, you are picked up by Tipsy Tours and dropped off at the end of the day.

The cost for private tours is to be discussed with the company, and you can get all their details from the website by clicking the link.

Transfers to concerts: Going to a show in the Southwest? Do you plan on drinking quite a bit at the concert? Good news!!! Tipsy Tours have you covered as you are picked up and returned to your accommodation.

Again, you are free to drink without the fear of wondering how to get back to your accommodation after the event.

My day with Tipsy Tours

I would be remised not to mention my day with Tipsy Tours. I toured in style in their luxury vehicle and explored the beautiful Augusta region.

I had the privilege of visiting some excellent places with breathtaking views. A winery or two, of course, was on the agenda, and yes, I may have dabbled in a bit of wine. Lunch was included amongst the stunning backdrop of the tall trees in the Forest Grove National Park at Café Boranup.

 

 

This was an overview of my day with Tipsy Tours and Transfers

Leeuwin Lighthouse: The day started with a bang. I was taken to the Leeuwin Lighthouse, the most Southwestern area of Australia. I took the 59 steps to the top of the lighthouse, and what awaited was the breathtaking view of where the two oceans meet the Indian and Southern Oceans.

Light breakfast followed at the Lighthouse café; the delicious ham croissants were a hit. As you continue walking around the top of the viewing area, you are hit with a bird’s eye view of the beautiful coastal city. It is fair to say that the camera got a decent workout as you are hit with mesmerising scenery.

 

 

Hamelin Bay Winery:  Soak in that dreamy view at Hamelin Bay Winery – the vineyard cascading down to a glistening lake below is enough to make anyone feel like they’ve been transported on an idyllic getaway. Take advantage of this beautiful setting with tasty platters and your favourite vino glass (or bottle!) perched atop the hill enjoying panoramic sights while you sip away.

 

 

Glenarty Road Winery: This was a winery with a difference. Five generations are proud; Glenarty Road has wine instilled in their impressive bloodline. The cellar door differs from others, but that is what I like about it. Set up in a shed that gives it an excellent personal class.

Tours are offered within the winery as you take a brisk walk around the property to see all their different vineyards for different wines made are made at Glenarty Road.

The best bit is you can wander the grounds with a glass of wine and even top up halfway through the tour at the number of portable bars around the grounds. Just perfect. I would also be rude not to recommend a favourite of mine, the Archer’s Drop Fortified Savvy, complete with ice and a slice of lime. Those who love a sweet wine will savour its delicious taste.

 

 

Whirlwind Olive Oil: Get your tastebuds ready for a whirlwind of flavour with Whirlwind’s Olive Oils! From the subtle zip of chilli oil to the tartness of lemon and orange or just classic olive – there’s an Oil experience that’ll tantalize even the most hardened taste buds. And don’t forget their delicious seasoned Olives while you’re at it!

 

Café Boranup:  At Café Boranup, tucked away in the serene Forest Grove National Park, you’ll find yourself dining among some of nature’s grandest creatures – trees! But more importantly, there’s an array of exquisite dishes to choose from – my favourite is their chilli chicken burger. And if that wasn’t delicious enough, they even offer fried abalone for those seeking something unique and extraordinary. Bon Appetit!

 

 

Hamelin Bay:  Off the beaten path north of Augusta, I found a picturesque haven – Hamelin Bay. As if guided by marine magic, my gaze was immediately set upon an incredible sight: stingrays! Lazing around me in crystal clear waters as I stood knee-deep, these graceful creatures were within touching distance at times before quickly gliding away like ghosts beneath the waves. My experience with them gave new life to folklore tales and awoke a newfound admiration for one of nature’s elegant mysteries.
