About AMQ Tours
AMQ Tours is a family wine-touring business run by owner-operator Andrew Dunn. The name is a nod to his father, whose initials and family nickname gave the company its letters. Andrew and his small team still plan the stops, make the bookings and do the driving. There are three ways to travel. The shared McLaren Vale tour takes two to seven guests to four partner wineries, with standard tastings and a regional platter covered in the ticket. The private full-day tour runs for about eight hours, travel included, and lets your group pick up to three cellar doors, breweries or distilleries in McLaren Vale or the Adelaide Hills, followed by a fine-dining lunch. Tastings and lunch are part of that price. Groups who would rather plan everything themselves can book the driver and vehicle for up to eight hours and pay their own tasting and lunch costs. The fleet is two Mercedes-Benz V-Class vans that each seat seven, with black leather upholstery and chilled water on board, plus a BYD Sealion that takes up to four. Pick-up from your accommodation is included across metropolitan Adelaide, including Glenelg, and from the Outer Harbor passenger terminal, McLaren Vale and the Adelaide Hills. Tours run seven days a week. Andrew is happy to suggest smaller producers that bigger coach tours skip, or to build the day around wineries already on your list. Gift cards are also sold, so a wine day can be given as a present.
