Itinerary

Happy group drinking wine outside at Wirra Wirra

Leave the bustle of the city behind and journey into the heart of the Fleurieu Peninsula for a day of movement, mindfulness, creativity, and connection. Your soulful day begins with a warm welcome from your local guide, then heads south to the light-filled sanctuary of Sol Yoga, nestled amongst gum trees and birdsong. Local yogi Kate will guide the group through a grounding one-hour yoga class suitable for all levels. An invitation to breathe deeply, stretch fully, and arrive in the moment.

Next, explore the vibrant Willunga Farmers Market—South Australia’s first and oldest farmers’ market. Wander at your own pace, chat with local producers, and enjoy a coffee or fresh juice in the open air. It’s your chance to gather a few regional treats and experience the authentic community spirit that defines Willunga.

Enjoy some free time to stroll the charming Willunga township, where community, creativity, and connection are woven into everyday life. Discover artisan stores, friendly locals, and the relaxed, country-town atmosphere that makes this region so special.

Meet back up with the group at the welcoming, family-owned Hither & Yon cellar door. As leaders in regenerative agriculture, this multi-award-winning winery blends sustainability with artisan making. Relax with a guided wine tasting and soak up the Willunga village energy and warm vibes this humble venue is known for.

A short drive away is Wirra Wirra winery. Built in 1894 and beautifully restored, this renowned vineyard is not only celebrated for its award-winning wines but also for its commitment to sustainability, biodynamic practices, native habitat restoration and estate-grown produce. Settle in for a delicious two-course seasonal lunch of shared mains, sides, and dessert, crafted by their talented chefs, all paired with the relaxed hospitality Wirra Wirra is known for.

With your taste buds satisfied, it’s time to move into a private room at the winery and awaken your inner artist in a playful Paint the Music session by Art of You. In this uplifting one-hour experience, you’ll be guided through the creative process of painting on canvas, inspired by a curated soundtrack. Each song evokes a different energy, inviting you to express emotion, movement, and colour in your own unique way—no art experience required! Leave with a personal masterpiece and a heart full of joy and return to Adelaide around 4.30 pm.

    I traveled from Adelaide to Melbourne with Girls Guide to the World. What a fabulous experience! Hannah was such a delight! She was absolutely one of the best tour guides AND bus drivers! She was very knowledgeable about the history … More of each town we came through. She was easy going and very flexible when plans had to change. She definitely made the long bus rides special. I highly recommend Untamed Escapes with Hannah!

    Had a brilliant 3 days, 2 nights swag camping on kangaroo island with Chris our guide! We managed to see so much of the island including spotting wild koalas, going to some beautiful beaches for swim stops such as Emu bay, Stokes bay and … More Hanson bay. The swag camping was so fun and we could star gaze and seen the wallaby’s s at the campsite. The food was always good and had plenty of options. Such a great group and a really fun trip! Zoe was also a great addition and help to the tour!!

    My husband and I did a 3 day kangaroo island tour. It was very fun. We experienced sleeping in a tent, do some of a bit stuffs for making lunch and clean up. We saw a lot of wildlife in KI. Too bad we missed the hike as we are doing the … More dolphin swim. But our guide Hannah did a great job of explaining and showing us what KI is all about. It was a short 3 days and would love to experience more of KI when we have the time to go back again.

    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.

    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!!

    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!
