Up Close and Local Tours

About the activity provider

For savvy travellers looking for a quality, bespoke and authentic local experience here in Perth, get off the beaten path and away from the crowds on an Up Close and Local small group tour. Whether you’re passionate about food, wine, cider, whiskey or all of the above, on any tour with Up Close and Local you are guaranteed to taste some amazing local produce - but their tours are about much more than that. It’s about getting to know the locals, hearing their stories and seeing first-hand how it all happens. Up Close and Local Tours have great relationships with some of the best winemakers, distillers and producers in the region, and with this insider knowledge each tour is thoughtfully crafted to ensure their guests get the best possible experience. Often this means that guests may get to participate in experiences that are not available to the general public, and every day the tours are a little bit different from the next. All of their tours are also fully guided, meaning they are more than just a ‘drop-off’ service. All tours are personally run by the owners of the business - and they ensure that all guests are personally introduced at each and every cellar door and they are there to share their knowledge of the wine and the region. And with guaranteed group sizes of 12 or less, you get access to wineries and places that can’t (or won't) accommodate the big buses - so you will enjoy a more relaxing, memorable and intimate tasting experience
