“Simon and Kerry are perfect hosts and made us feel very welcome. They have exceptional knowledge of the region and organised fantastic winery tours. The apartment was warm, quiet, and equipped with everything we needed. We'll be back!”
– Glenn from Melbourne, via Airbnb
We stayed in Mt Gambier, which is about a 30-45 minute drive from Coonawarra, but Simon was still able to pick us up, in a new, very comfortable car which made the journey that much more enjoyable. His knowledge of and passion for the area was evident, and he is clearly a well known and well respected local. The wineries were thoughtfully selected according to our individual wine preferences, and each cellar door was expecting us and welcomed us warmly as we entered. Simon had arranged a delicious platter for lunch at Brand's and a sit down with the winemakers at Raidis, whose company we enjoyed so much we kept Simon for an extra hour! Would highly recommend Coonawarra Experiences for your next trip to the region - I know we'll be back!
