Bickley Valley Wine, Cider and Gin Tour

4 hours to 1 day

Overview

This full-day tour heads into the Bickley Valley in the Perth Hills, less than 30 minutes from Perth CBD, for a relaxed tasting day away from the city. It focuses on boutique producers rather than big bus venues, with visits to two respected wineries, a cider house and a gin distillery. Tastings cover a broad mix of sparkling, white, red, rosé and fortified wines, along with locally made cider and gin. A two-course lunch is included, and the group is capped at 10 guests, so it suits travellers who want a more personal day and don't mind paying a bit more for a smaller tour.

Why backpackers love it

If you're in Perth for a short stay and want an easy food-and-drink day without organising transport, this keeps things simple. The pickup options are handy, lunch is already covered, and the small group size means it feels less like being herded around on a coach tour. It is more premium than a cheap tasting trip, but you get access to boutique venues, a mix of wine, cider and gin in one day, and a straightforward escape into the hills without needing a car.

What to expect

You'll be picked up from one of the available Perth departure points and driven out to the Perth Hills in an air-conditioned vehicle. Over the day, the tour visits two boutique wineries for guided tastings, with a chance to try a range of wine styles, then stops at a cider house and a gin producer for more local tastings. Lunch is served at a Bickley Valley venue, with a choice of entrée and main or main and dessert, and dietary requirements can be catered for, including vegetarian, gluten-free and vegan options. Throughout the trip, the local guide provides commentary, and water, Wi-Fi and in-vehicle refrigeration are included.
