A perfect day in the Swan Valley
Fantastic tour! Paul customised the tour to match our requirements exactly. The vegan tastings and lunch were perfect. He had friendly contacts at each stop who selected the ideal wines for us. Definitely recommended.

Hi Ulla, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. I'm very pleased you and Rob enjoyed the day with me in the Swan Valley. It was fun coming up with a vegan itinerary for you guys and I'm sure it'll come in handy again in the future.
I look forward to seeing you both on your next visit to Perth. Cheers, Paul

Excellent throughout and highly recommend
Paul was a fantastic host with great knowledge of both wine and the history of the region and each winery. Swan Valley seems a hidden gem with great wines and Paul highlited its wineries to best effect. I would highly recommend this tour and on the basis of the experience, I believe any tour from this company would be a well curated and valued experience.

A great day of food and wine with a great guy
We had an absolutely fantastic day with Paul exploring the swan river wine region. He picked us up at our hotel promptly in a spacious and spotlessly clean ford van and we headed out exploring.
We visited three different wineries for tastings, focusing on small boutique places with outstanding wines, had a fantastic lunch at a 4th winery overlooking the vineyards and even stopped off to try amazing local honey before finishing at a large chocolate producer.

premium experience on guided tours of Perth, Fremantle and the wineries of the Swan River region.
As I´ve posted on Google: Paul at Up Close and Local Tours was easy to communicate with, and he was quick to adapt his guided tours to meet my needs. With a two-day (overnight) cruise stop, he met me right off the ship and we visited the beach and park as we moved through Fremantle to Perth. After lunch at a local brewery, we tackled the visites to the four churches I needed to visit and photograph, and then we did a walking tour of Perth with a focus on murals and street art before heading back...Leer más

Great day experiencing the local produce and animal wildlife
The tour was definitely our highlight in Perth. Paul was highly knowledgeable and epitomizes the word ‘local’. Through his networks,””We managed to save a ton of time at Caversheim and he was flexible to cater to our needs and requests.
We managed to visit the Caversheim park, a winery/brewery, chocolate factory, honey, coffee roaster, and a nuts/nougat shop.
Never felt rushed and he guided us throughout.
