Where to Go, Where to Stay!

There is a lot to the McLaren Vale Wine District - Wineries, sure, but so much more.  SAeBikes work closely with providers in the area and our bikes are available directly from, or through, many.  Our bikes are available from The Visitor Information Centre, Oxenberry Farm, Gemtree Wines and Ortus Wines.  

We are often asked to recommend "good places to visit" and our answer is always the same "it depends on your mood, what you want to drink, what you want to eat, what view you want".  There is no 'typical' McLaren Vale winery or restaurant, there is no 'typical' McLaren Vale experience.

McLaren Vale and Fleurieu Visitor Information Centre

A great place to start your visit to the region.  One of the best Visitor Centre's in Australia; offers the usual maps, brochures and advice but all presents a Cafe, Art Gallery, Gin Distillery... and eBikes
