Overview
Uncover the uniquely intriguing history of Barossa winemaking traditions at Artisans of Barossa, a collaboration of eight small winemakers nestled on the northern side of Tanunda, united in their commitment to promoting and protecting their art. Before and after you’ve delved into a fascinating heritage, sampled the exquisite products, and settled down for a lavish lunch, you’ll witness the exceptional majesty of the Barossa Valley from the sky on a scenic helicopter tour.

Lift off from the heli-pad in the Hoffnungsthal Valley and soar over the awe-inspiring landscape beneath, flying past Lyndoch before skirting the wondrous western ridge of the Barossa Valley. Sail over the gorgeous green blanket of vineyards surrounding Seppeltsfield Winery, Maggie Beer’s farm, and Penfolds Winery, before making a spectacularly stylish landing within 20m of the entrance to Artisans of Barossa.

Immerse yourself in the incredible atmosphere of an artisanal winery setting, indulging in the ‘Rarities’ experience, where you’ll be treated to a tasting of six wines from the full tasting selection, gaining a first-hand appreciation for the quality and value of this region’s viticulturalists. Refreshed, settle down for a sumptuous four-course lunch of your choosing in Essen, Artisans of Barossa’s gorgeous restaurant.

Having been grandly indulged, reboard your helicopter for a tour around the outskirts of Tanunda, soaring south towards Jacob’s Creek winery and some of Australia’s largest wine tanks. From this unbeatable viewpoint, behold the unbounded beauty of the Barossa Valley as you glide over Lyndoch, the Whispering Wall (Barossa Reservoir), and the Barossa Goldfields, before your helicopter lands you elegantly back in the vibrant Hoffnungsthal Valley.

Motion sickness:

This is a scenic tour, not a thrill ride. Most people do not experience motion sickness. The flight is smooth, and turns are slow and gentle.

If you are particularly prone to motion sickness, anti-motion sickness medication is a good idea.
