Perth: Gateway to Two Great Wine Regions

Western Australia's wine industry punches well above its weight internationally, and the cellar door culture is thriving. For Perth residents and visitors, two wine destinations are within reach: the Swan Valley, 25 minutes northeast of the CBD, and Margaret River, a three-hour drive south.

The Swan Valley is Perth's local wine region, suitable for half-day visits, wine cruises, and casual lunches. Margaret River is the premium destination: a wine region that has earned an international reputation for its cabernet sauvignon, chardonnay, and a food culture built around local produce. Not sure which is right for you? Our Swan Valley vs Margaret River comparison breaks down the differences.

Most Margaret River tours from Perth depart very early (around 6:00–7:00am) to maximise time at cellar doors. Swan Valley tours are more flexible — half-day and full-day options are both popular.
