DeTours: McLaren Vale – Women's Stage 1

Pristine South Australian wine region McLaren Vale is ready to welcome day one of the women’s race. Its boundless vineyards will serve as backdrop for a celebration of cycling, food and wine.

Depart Adelaide aboard a premium air-conditioned coach and travel to your private viewing space at the start line in Willunga – the perfect spot to enjoy a local breakfast offering. See riders up close as they prepare for a big day of cycling action and be there as the stage gets under way.

Next is a multi-course lunch in Willunga’s charming Old Bush Inn. Indulge in a curated menu featuring some of the region’s best seasonal produce, together with a selection of fine South Australian wine, and head roadside to watch the peloton pass through.

Your adventure through McLaren Vale will also include a tasting experience at family-run winery Hither & Yon, a local favourite synonymous with the region.
