The Narrative
Star Class Tours is led by Bernie Stanlake — a local winemaker with over 20 years of experience in the Margaret River region. When your tour guide has made award-winning wine themselves, the cellar door conversation goes to a completely different level: from how to read a vintage, to what the soil under your feet is actually doing to the fruit in the glass.
Tours run 7 days a week, visiting a selection of renowned wineries, boutique vineyards, and gourmet destinations across the region. Half day and full day options cater to different schedules, with free pick-up offered from Margaret River, Busselton, Dunsborough, Yallingup, and anywhere in between. Groups can run up to 13 passengers, making Star Class an excellent option for larger celebrations, corporate days, and family groups.
Star Class also offers brewery tours for those drawn to Margaret River's craft beer scene, with behind-the-scenes brewery visits and food pairings woven into the day alongside (or instead of) wine tastings. The family-friendly approach — including kid-friendly stops and scenic picnic options — makes it one of the few operators in the region that genuinely caters to mixed groups.
Bernie's background means the wine education embedded in every tour is authentic, not scripted. A 2024 TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Award winner, Star Class Tours has built its reputation the hard way — five stars at a time.
