Review of the Margaret River day trip from Perth, with wine, chocolate, Canal Rocks, Busselton Jetty, lunch, and practical booking tips.
“I have enjoyed this trip. It was well organised, offered a variety of wine tasting spots with other interesting activities. I really liked Canal Rocks. The driver was courteous.

It was almost 2pm by the time we had lunch, with a very early start of the day and lots of wine in the morning, so definitely good to move things around a little. Other than that, I totally recommend it for wine lovers.”
