Itinerary
Day 1: Perth to Yallingup private tour Margaret River
Your culinary adventure embarks from your Perth accommodation at 7.30 am, where your experienced guide will greet you. Travel south to Busselton to stroll along the world’s second-longest jetty, which stretches 1.8km out into Geographe Bay, before visiting the Origin Markets, where you will taste a plethora of produce from the local growers and unearth uniquely crafted gifts.
Kick-off your shoes for a stroll along one of the region’s best beaches before the signature experience of your food and wine tour. At 3 pm, board a 60-ft pleasure boat for the Taste of the Bays 7-course progressive dinner cruising the calm, crystal blue waters of Geographe Bay. Sip on premium beverages and indulge in an exquisite feast crafted by an onboard chef. Reflecting the best of the region, the gourmet menu features delicious WA seafood and fresh local ingredients the South West is renowned for. Each course is accompanied by paired wines from Howard Park, Margaret River.
While anchored in a pristine bay, choose to swim, snorkel or simply relax, taking in magical views. Watch the sunset over Cape Naturaliste from the most breathtaking vantage point there is – floating on water.
Feeling incredibly relaxed and satisfied, arrive at Smiths Beach Resort in Yallingup at around 8 pm to settle into your five-star accommodation for two nights.
Today you will travel approximately 300km.
Day 2: Margaret River
You’re on holiday after all, so this morning relax with breakfast in bed. Enjoy a range of fresh local produce from your gourmet breakfast hamper, courtesy of Lamont’s, then venture out to wander through the vibrant township of Margaret River, home to an eclectic mix of boutique stores and galleries.
Morning tea is served alfresco on the veranda at the world-class Leeuwin Estate at around 10.30 am. Accompany your host on a private behind-the-scenes tour, learning about the estate’s history, the winemaking process and their contribution to the arts. A tutored wine tasting of a selection of Leeuwin Estate wines is a must. Awaiting you in the restaurant following the tour is a six-course degustation menu, carefully matched with current releases and museum selected Leeuwin Estate wines. This truly is the most luxurious way to introduce the three pillars of fine wine, food and the arts that define the estate.
Spend the rest of the afternoon tasting your way around the Margaret River region, which we will tailor to your liking. Options include cellar door visits to Gabriel’s Chocolate, the Grove Distillery and Wills Domain. Come late afternoon, return to the resort. Those feeling like burning off some of the produce from the day can take a walk along the iconic Cape to Cape Track to a famed rockpool knows as the Aquarium.
Tonight’s fine dining experience is an a la carte selection of mouth-watering Australian cuisine at Lamont’s restaurant in the resort. Kate Lamont is one of Western Australia’s most successful chefs with a career spanning over three decades. Sit back and relax with views over the ocean, the perfect way to end the second day of your private Margaret River tour.
Today travel approximately 150km.
Day 3: Yallingup to Denmark
It’s up early today to enjoy breakfast at one of the local’s favourites. Following breakfast, see the beautiful Margaret River mouth and the world-famous surf break at Surfers Point. Now, it’s time to leave Margaret River and head south to see the giant stingrays of Hamelin Bay. From the beach to the forest, enjoy an exceptional dining experience lakeside at Silkwood Estate in Pemberton. This vineyard has award-winning wine and panoramic views of the surrounding lush karri forest.
This afternoon, traverse through the treetops at the internationally recognised Valley of the Giants. The iconic Tree Top Walk places you 40 metres high in the canopy of Western Australia’s majestic and endemic tingle trees, some as old as 400 years. Just an hour down the road, the idyllic town of Denmark and its pristine beaches, walking trails, abundant wildlife, towering trees and wildflowers await. Check into your luxurious spa villa at Aiyana Retreat, nestled among the bush.
Tonight, relax in your room with a local produce platter and wines collected along the way.
Today travel approximately 450 km.
Day 4: Denmark to Albany
Breakfast this morning is at Denmark’s Bibbulmun Café, followed by a walk along the Mokare Heritage Trail, which follows the Denmark River. Onwards to William Bay National Park, home to Greens Pool. A white sandy beach with huge granite boulders meets you, and in the warmer months, this is an ideal place for a swim. From one paradise to another, visit Elephant Rocks which, as its name suggests, looks like a herd of elephants paddling out to sea.
It’s time for the final exquisite culinary experience of your Margaret River food and wine tour. Savour every moment of the warm hospitality, fine wines and wholesome food at the multi-award winning winery The Lake House.
Take the scenic coastal drive towards Albany, visiting Torndirrup National Park to witness the dramatic coastal rock formations of The Gap and Natural Bridge, then take in sweeping views over Albany from Mount Clarence.

The 10 days of Adelaide to Perth will remain an unforgettable experience to me.
This had everything - swag camping , star studded night skies, beautiful beaches, scenic drives, spectacular hikes, picnic lunches & a lot of wildlife … More ( yes, Kangaroos wake you up in the morning - I am not kidding !! ).
The selected camping parks and the facilities available were impressive, can't complain. Enough time to explore and enjoy places.
Have to mention - Brendon and Jackson - they were the best guides , really appreciate their hard work, effort and patience to give all of us a wonderful tour experience. The food was delicious, in-plenty and always on-time, never felt disappointed 🙂 .
The group was a bunch of wonderful humans who were very friendly and full of energy, there was never a boring moment !!
Highly recommended to anyone who is looking for a tour across Nullarbor !!
Thanks for the experience, and looking forward to the next adventure with Untamed Escapes!! -
My husband and I just returned back to Qld after experiencing the 6 Day Eyre Peninsula & Flinders Ranges Adventure Tour. We had a fabulous time with Steve the tour guide and the great people we met who travelled with us. You get to … More see and experience so much in a small amount of time. We had no idea South Australia is so beautiful and has many beautiful walks, views, food and wine. It really has it all. It's definitely a trip we will remember forever.

When my friend told me about this trip, I thought she’s crazy or gonna be crazy during to trip. It was the wildest adventure of my life. I’ve been to many beautiful places but what I saw on this trip was exceptionally beautiful. Brendan … More and Michel always gave us positive energy. Their passion for Australian bushes and geology was a bonus. I can't understand how they maintain so much energy from early morning until nighttime. Happy days!

The incredible Adelaide to Perth 10 Day camping trip.
A review simply cannot sum up how amazing this trip was! If you are contemplating booking it, just do it! Home grown Aussie like myself, an expat or tourist, it's really an amazing … More experience for everyone.
The places you visit showcase some of the incredible beauty Australia has to offer and camping in a swag really lets you get in touch with nature. We really are a very lucky country!
Our guides Brendan and Jackson went above and beyond to make this trip over NYE extra special and memorable and we will all be forever grateful. Our eclectic group of people made for such real, heartwarming, genuine fun and laughs that will forever bring a smile to my face 😁😊
I cannot recommend this trip enough and look forward to planning my next adventure with UnTammed Escapes! -
TripADeal sub-contracted our 10 day Adelaide to Alice Springs adventure to Untamed Escapes and how lucky we were! Matt (our mini-bus driver and guide), was fantastic, a real legend! We felt very safe with his driving and he went above and … More beyond to make our road trip so memorable. Matt was friendly, professional and knowledgeable with a cheeky Aussie sense of humour. We would recommend that you give Untamed Adventures a go.

What an amazing way to see the Eyre Peninsula! Hassie has got to be the most informed person of the EP, and wow does he have some stories.
I will definitely be getting on an Adelaide Hills tour asap and maybe even one of their WA tours! … More -
We had a lovely day. It was so scenic and relaxing. we were not expecting to learn this much but so glad that we did.
-
We did a whole day tour of Port Lincoln and it was truly the highlight of our trip. Our tour guide, Ian, was just so friendly and knowledgably about the area. It was definitely worth it and we are so glad we did it to discover the best … More of Port Lincoln!
-
I had the 1-day Port Lincoln tour with Geoff. I must say I totally enjoyed the tour. I have been brought to places in PL that I thought I would never have gone to on my own. Geoff is very knowledgeable and an experienced ranger. The … More knowledge he provided about PL’s history and flora/fauna were something I have not learnt in school. He has so much experience and he cares for the environment. I was in awe at how he explained the ecosystems in the places we’ve been to. I felt like watching a documentary only I am part if it and experiencing things first hand. My fave spot would be Whaler’s Way with the Tortoise rock. It was nature at its best. I highly recommend this tour as I know you will have the best time of your life enjoying nature’s beauty in South Australia that is Port Lincoln.

In March 2021 four of us did the Best of Port Lincoln and Coffin Bay and we still talk about our experience when we catch up. From the minute we were greeted at the airport by our tour guide Ian the fun began. Ian was a fountain of information … More and he certainly made our experience memorable. He showed us many amazing sights, our hotel accommodation was A1 and our food was 10/10. Getting into our waders and sitting down at a semi-submerged water pavilion, shucking oysters washed down with some wine was an experience we will never forget. We will be back!!!

4 days of exploring and experiencing the Margaret River region. Wow wow wow, loved the visual delights, nutritional sensations, the slowness of yoga sessions, the workshops of sourdough making at One Table Farm; the education received from … More the Spice Mistress and her delightful food. The experience of tasting gin for the first time and walking an 8km section of the Cape to Cape. Thank you so much Jodie, Gem and Riley for making me feel so welcomed, you looked after us girls in every way. Glamping at Fair Harvest was a treat I’ll never forget 🤩🤩🤩

I absolutely loved my 10 day trip across the Nullarbor from Adelaide to Perth, there was not one thing I would change. The Nullarbor was on my bucket list of things to do and you can’t do it any better than living out of a swag. If you … More get the chance to swim with the seals and dolphins do it, it’s worth every cent. I just loved seeing the kangaroos on the beach over in WA and the huge trees and the bush walks we did. Don’t think about it just go ahead and do it.
-
We had a wonderful West Coast adventure - whale watching and more. We loved every minute and are looking forward to Untamed day trip Escapes around Coffin Bay and Port Lincoln coming up soon!
-
We recently were treated to a fully guided whale watching tour and have been raving about it ever since. We saw things we were in awe of, went to places that we can't wait to return, learned things about the area that were amazing … More and stayed in beds that were oh so comfortable. We would recommend Untamed Escapes to anyone who wants to get the best of the Eyre Peninsula and Nullarbor Plain during whale watching season!
