Explore the Historic Swan Valley on Your Own Terms
Located just 25 minutes north-east of the Perth CBD, the Swan Valley stands as Western Australia’s oldest wine region. It is a world of award-winning boutique vineyards, world-class microbreweries, artisanal distilleries, and handcrafted gourmet produce. However, organizing a group day out means dealing with the logistical headache of designating a reliable driver or keeping a large group synchronized across multiple ridesharing applications.
WA Maxi Cabs eliminates the logistics hassle completely. We provide premium, customized private group charters designed around your specific pacing, style, and destination choices. Whether you are aiming to track down the finest vintage Chenin Blanc in Western Australia, sample premium gins infused with native botanicals, or indulge your family at local chocolate factories, we put the planning entirely in your hands while our local drivers manage the roads.
Design your customized group tasting route across the beautiful landscape of Swan Valley.

Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Swan Valley Charters
To help you prepare for your upcoming custom group charter, we have compiled detailed answers to our most common booking questions:
Yes, absolutely. Because our charters operate purely as a premium transport provider, all venue admissions, wine tasting fees, lunch reservations, and venue entry allocations must be handled directly by your group organizers. We strongly recommend pre-booking tasting windows directly with your chosen estates on weekends, as many popular spots enforce strict capacity limits for group crowds.
No. Under Western Australian passenger transport regulations, drinking alcohol inside commercial passenger vehicles, taxis, and maxi cabs is strictly prohibited by law. We want you to enjoy the valley's finest offerings to the fullest, but all tastings and drinks must be enjoyed directly within the licensed venue areas along your route.
We offer full door-to-door flexibility anywhere in the greater Perth metropolitan area. Whether your group requires a single morning pickup from a hotel in the Perth CBD, a residential driveway in Joondalup, or an office park in Fremantle, we will be there right on time. We can also accommodate split drop-offs at the end of your day out for an additional fee upon request.
We understand that great afternoons can fly by quickly! If your group decides to extend your tour mid-day, simply speak with your driver to confirm their availability. Extended time is billed directly in straightforward 15-minute increments based on the standard hourly rate tier assigned to your vehicle option.
We place your family's safety above all else. We can supply standard anchor-point baby capsules, forward-facing child seats, and booster options for a small preparation fee. Simply specify the exact ages of your young travelers in our booking request form so we can configure your vehicle correctly before arrival.
