What to expect
The day kicks off with a short guided walk up Arthur's Seat to one of the Peninsula's best lookouts—nothing strenuous, just enough to earn the vista. You'll then settle into a relaxed winery lunch where you'll taste a selection of regional wines paired with your own grazing board built from what the estate grows. Afternoon is unstructured: head to the hot springs and spend three hours moving between thermal pools at your own pace, warming up in mineral-rich water surrounded by bushland. The pace is deliberately leisurely—no rushing between stops, no hard selling.
