BUSSELTON AND THE REGION
A Private Wine Tour from Busselton
Busselton is a relaxed and growing base for exploring the region, with plenty of accommodation and an easy run to the wineries. We collect you from your hotel or accommodation and bring you home at the end of the day, so there is no driving and no planning to think about.
From Busselton the region is close. It is around forty minutes to Margaret River, and just twenty five to Dunsborough, so very little of the day is spent travelling. Depending on what you enjoy, we might head into the heart of the Margaret River wine region, the premium vineyards of Wilyabrup or the cellar doors around Yallingup. The direction is yours, the day is built around you.
New to the area? Our Busselton travel guide covers the town, the jetty and the bay, and what makes it a good base for a few days in the region.
Hi, I'm Mo
YOUR GUIDE
I trained as a chef in England before working in France and Australia. My wine education began in Courchevel, where I worked alongside the sommelier, changing the menu each week and matching the wine to it.
When I came to Australia I studied hospitality management, which deepened the grounding my kitchen years had given me. I went on to manage the cellar door at a local winery in Margaret River for three years, talking about the region, its growers and its wines every day. That is where my knowledge of Margaret River wine was built.
I have lived and worked in this region for over a decade. It is long enough to know the cellar doors, the back roads and the people behind the labels.

WHO IT SUITS
Who comes with us
Most of our Busselton guests are couples, groups of friends and people staying in town for a few days who would rather be driven and shown around than work it out themselves. Guests in town for an event or a conference are welcome too, a relaxed private day in the wine region is an easy way to round out a trip.

"Mo was our driver for the whole week, from Perth right through to the end of our trip. Knowledgeable about the wineries, great recommendations, and nothing was ever too much trouble. He finished by dropping us at Busselton Airport. Highly recommend." Tracey
