The Blackwood Valley is one of Western Australia’s most picturesque and emerging premium wine regions, nestled between the Southern Forests and the Margaret River plateau. Rolling hills, cool nights, and fertile soils produce elegant wines defined by balance and freshness. The region’s tranquil country charm and genuine hospitality make it ideal for guests seeking an unhurried, private touring experience away from the crowds.

Vineyards here are mostly small and family-owned, with a focus on quality over quantity. The region is best known for medium-bodied Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, and finely structured Chardonnay, supported by Sauvignon Blanc and select alternative varietals that express the diversity of the Blackwood landscape.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Earlier this year my husband and I and 2 additional booked Craig Douglas of Gilt Edge Chauffeurs to pick us up at Busselton, WA and drive us to the Margaret River. We had an amazing experience. Prior to the date, Craig worked on a fabulous tour that included a wine tasting but also allowed us to see a great deal of interesting sights along the way. Craig has an incredible knowledge of the area and a great personality to match. We had a fantastic day and we would certainly recommend the service to you. Victoria H

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The ultimate professional and a total lifesaver! If you want to arrive at your wedding feeling like absolute royalty, you need to book Craig from Gilt Edge Chauffeurs. He was, quite simply, the unsung hero of our wedding day. From the moment he arrived - 10 minutes early - we knew we were in safe hands. Craig is the definition of a class act. He was incredibly professional, opening doors for us at every turn and even providing hangers for our suit jackets to ensure everything stayed crisp and camera-ready. It’s those small, thoughtful touches that really set Gilt Edge apart. We didn't have the simplest of schedules. we needed Craig to transport us (along with our photographer) around our accommodation site and then onward to the venue. He was so incredibly flexible and patient with our movements, making the logistics feel effortless. Nothing was too much trouble for him. The few minutes right before you walk down the aisle are a total whirlwind of nerves, but Craig was a total rock. He provided us with water and had such a calm, grounded energy that helped us relax and soak in the moment before the ceremony began. Craig, thank you for the impeccable service and for making our arrival so unforgettable. We couldn't recommend Gilt Edge Chauffeurs more highly! 🚗✨

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Craig's service was absolutely 5 star! It's hard to find someone that's equally professional, polite, friendly and reliable! I had booked a winery tour with another company prior but wished I had booked Craig from the beginning. We ended up needing a driver from Bunker Bay to Margaret River for a lunch and Craig (knowing our poor experience with another winery company) kindly offered to take us to some amazing wineries on the way home. Impeccable service that is quite hard to find these days! Thank you Craig xx

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. On the 18th my wife and I got married, we didn’t think the night could end on a better note. Fortunately Mr Douglas, our chauffeur was class, from opening our doors, giving us ice cold water and keeping us company the whole way to our accommodation. He carried all my wife’s things and waited for us to get into our accommodation before bidding us farewell. He is a gentleman through and through and the car was immaculate and the drive was silky smooth. It was the perfect drive to finish to our night. We’d highly recommend his services.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Top quality service from Craig in his executive Lexus, ideally suited with his local knowledge for a full or half day exploring the Margaret River vineyards or any other regional driving requirements.  Highly recommended.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had the best day ever with Craig. Brought myself and my family around all the wineries in Margret river region. Five star service from start to finish. He recommended all the wineries and planned the best day. No request was too much. Would recommend this service to anyone. Will definitely be availing of this service again next time I’m in the region!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I had a fantastic day travelling with Craig through the wine region today visiting a few of the local wineries. His car is luxury personified and his service top notch, happy to give us a little bit of advice when needed. Thanks also to Ryan at Marq Wines, Claire at Wills Domain, Mel at Woodlands Wines and Stuart at Pierro.
