FORK & GRAPE

Service Description

This is an exclusive and exciting one day adventure only 40-minutes from Adelaide’s CBD. It introduces the visitor to the hidden delights of a spectacular wine and food province set in a pristine pocket of South Australian bushland and coast. We drive off the tourist routes in a luxury, custom-built 4WD vehicle to discover exclusive locations throughout national parks and private property made accessible to tour guide and passionate Fleurieu local, Benjamin Neville. This exhilarating off-road adventure embraces sprawling vineyards with a dramatic backdrop of rolling hills, local flora and fauna, a spectacular beach drive and a glimpse into indigenous history. It includes a relaxed, mid-morning refreshment stop of handmade cheese and local wines to the sounds of the didgeridoo and a specially prepared outdoor, private lunch experience followed by a visit to the world-acclaimed McLaren Vale wine region and a wine tasting at Ben’s respected family homestead & vineyard. Highly acclaimed chef and Ben’s partner, Imogen (Mo) Czulowski prepares a delicious 3-course meal on the homestead lawns. Throughout the tour Ben shares his knowledge of and passion for the region, stopping at intervals to allow you to soak in breathtaking views of rocky headlands, backcountry 4x4 tracks and timeless vistas over the vast Great Southern Ocean and Kangaroo Island.
