The 10 Best Wine Tours & Tastings in Brisbane, Queensland

November 16, 2021 Leonarda Pillsbury

Australia’s third-largest city, Brisbane is the hub of Queensland culture, offering a peek at the past and a glimpse into the future. Visit the historic Windmill and Old Commissariat Store, built by convicts in 1828, or fast-forward to the present (and beyond) with a trip to the new Gallery of Modern Art. Mingle with locals atop Mount Coot-tha, cruise the Brisbane River to South Bank’s sandy beach on the City Cat and make sure to fill the cuteness quota at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, home to koalas and kangaroos.

Experience luxury with a private helicopter flight over Brisbane before landing in true VIP style at Sirromet. Located at the picturesque Mount Cotton, upon landing you'll be picked up driven a short distance to the vineyard where you'll have two hours to explore and unwind. Sample Sirromet's finest wines (optional), take a stroll around the beautiful grounds and sit down for lunch at their fine dining restaurant or Tuscan-inspired cafe Best of all, your helicopter will be ready when you are. With a quick text message your pilot will get the aircraft ready for the return flight. Enjoy a scenic journey back to Archerfield Airport via the beautiful CBD, offering incredible photo opportunities. Or upgrade to our Gold Coast Scenic Package, with around one hour of total flight time The price is per person - we can accomodate groups of up to 30 by utilising larger/multiple aircraft All food and drink at the winery is an additional expense

Inclusions: Round-trip private transfer, Round-trip flights - Total Flight time with Brisbane Package 30min - Total Flight Time with Gold Coast Package 60min, Private tour, All taxes, fees and handling charges are included in the price, Safety Brief prior to the flight, Commentary during the flight, Only air-conditioned helicopters are used, Bose Headset Systems, Free parking for the entire duration of the experience

Exclusions: Alcoholic drinks (available to purchase), Lunch, We do make restaurant bookings for our customers but without food packages., Our pilots have been doing this for a very long time, and from experience, we can definitively say that fixed food packages do not always cater well to the dietary requirements of our customers. The menus often have a lot of variation but in order to facilitate ‘fixed price’ we either have to charge extra to compensate for the most expensive menu items or provide a limited selection. Celiacs, vegans and other people with nutritional requirements know this all too well. Often our passengers are celebrating a special occasion and are quite well fed prior to getting a three-course meal – when this is the case, they will thank you for not having to go through the entire degustation menu

I can't recommend Bekaa Air highly enough! John could not have been more helpful, accommodating and professional, both over the phone, and then as our pilot. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bekaa Air to anyone.

Visit venues that capture the grandeur of our colonial past and enjoy their local wines. All while been chauffeur around in luxury Mercedes Benz Bus. First, one was home to three former Queensland Premiers. Expect history, elegance and a relaxing wine tasting. With glorious setting, sweeping drive, the colonnaded veranda and undulating hills covered with vines will provide an immaculate setting for what is sure to be an amazing experience. Second, Historic homestead ‘Killowen’ is Canungra Valley Vineyards with extensive grounds that stretch along the banks of the Canungra Creek and the Alpaca Farm located on the property, so you can feed and walk an Alpaca through lush Vineyard grounds. Here we enjoy our lunch basket with local wines. Third, George Gibson founded the Central Coast Winery Pty Ltd in the 1970s with assistance from his son Peter. Together they experimented with varieties of winemaking from using traditional grape to assorted fruits and vegetables and honey.
