The wine adventure tour for people who don't do tours! It’s the Margaret River wine and nature lovers’ experience with the works. Travelling in a luxury 4WD hosted by local expert guide of the year - Sean Blocksidge.
The Margaret River Discovery Tour is currently rated as the #1 Margaret River Tour experience on Tripadvisor (for 17 consecutive years). 

• Start the day with a canoe trip down a stunning section of the tranquil Margaret River. You won’t get wet, dirty or fall in. It’s a peaceful beginning to your day of highlights. 
 
• Then head to the beach to see how the winemakers relax – a coffee while you check the surf at one of the region’s top beach breaks. 

 • The next stop is an ancient waterhole to spot freshwater Marron and wildlife and to taste local honey while you reflect on Aboriginal history dating back more than 50,000 years. 

 • Lunch at one the region’s most celebrated emerging superstar wineries – Fraser Gallop Estate – is our next highlight. You'll have exclusive access to the working winery and vineyard and savour some of the best wines in the region matched with local produce while seated among barrels of ageing wine. 

 • Finish the day with a 4WD adventure and walk on a spectacular section of the Cape to Cape Track – the Wilyabrup Cliffs. You  have special government approval to use a 4WD track that offers stunning cliff top views. High above the Indian Ocean the epic scenery, fresh sea breezes and surrounding ancient soils provide a deeper understanding of the unique Margaret River region.


Hosted by Western Australian Guide of the Year - Sean Blocksidge. 

Sean is a local born and bred West Aussie who's been consistently rated Tripadvisor's #1 best small tour experience in Margaret River. 

He'll take you down the back tracks and trails that most visitors to the region will miss.  As Sean says "how can you visit Margaret River region and miss the actual Margaret River? That's nuts. Or fail to experience the grandeur of the Cape Track."

He shares local secrets and stories to more deeply connect you to Margaret River. You'll travel in his luxury Landrover Discovery 4WD. This is personalised touring at it's best. No minivans or buses.

We had the best day ever. Sean, our guide, was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic you couldn't help but have a good time. The fact it was only a small group made it more personal, there were only 7 of us, this included Sean. Canoeing on Margaret River was magical, so peaceful. I got to sit in the middle, which meant I didn't have to do anything, result!! Lunch at one of the vineyards was also a highlight, Sean arranged for us to have exclusive access where we got to taste several different types of wine, not to mention had a delicious lunch. Finished the day off by heading to the coast and going completely off track. Somewhere we would never have found or gone to on our own, the views were stunning. If you go to Margaret River, be sure to book this trip, you won't be disappointed.

We had an incredible day, Sean was a fab host and very knowledgeable about every aspect of the tour and more! He is a genuinely lovely person and made us feel so welcome and included in our tour. Canoeing was beautiful and so peaceful on a part of the river that is rarely used, its very relaxing and would definitely say anybody could do it! (100% our favourite part of the day!) Lunch and wine tasting was also amazing and we loved the short hike at the end of the day. All round it is absolutely worth the money for a more intimate, genuine tour of Margaret River. You get to see places most people don't know about/find and Sean adds a great atmosphere to the tour.

This has to be the best way to enjoy a visit to Margaret River. Alison and myself thoroughly enjoyed our day out with Sean, the peace and quiet of the river as we slowly canoed down it, the feel of the wind and crash of the waves as we walked along the cliffs contrasted so well. Add to that an exclusive visit to a top vineyard, with a personalised tour not available to many visitors. In the grounds we then picnicked in the sun, eating local produce paired with excellent quality wines. Sean is an excellent host, and keeps the tours to only 5 or 6 people, a very personalised service. In all a perfect day. We are now in our golden years, but more than capable of enjoying this tour.

My dad and I both had only one day in Margaret river and we could not be happier that we chose Sean’s tour. Canoeing on Margaret river, lunch in a beautiful barrel room with outstanding wines and lovely knowledgeable hosts and topping off the day with some 4wd and walking tracks on the cape to cape coastline. Sean is brimming with local insight, animated and engaging which all made for a jam packed day to also be relaxing. I would more than highly recommend this tour :) thank you Sean!!
