Wonderful scenery and wines on the hunter valley full day trip - Chris (male) was a very experienced, friendly, and informative of guide, who is also a safe driver. He was very efficient and kept the group moving, yet I did not feel rushed. We enjoyed sampling wines from three boutique wineries, as well as cheese from a small Cheese company. We also enjoyed the views of the Hunter valley. In all, it was a very pleasant full day tour with lots of good information on Australia and lots of great wine! I would highly recommend this trip for anyone wanting to experience both the Hunter Valley scenery and boutique wines.

Terrific day in the Hunter Valley - I took this tour on December 20, 2023, and our guide was Tony. It was a terrific day that included 3 Hunter Valley wineries, a lunch, and a cheese tasting. I really enjoyed the day, despite the pouring rain. Tony provided a very interesting commentary on the drive that included aboriginal history, and local history of Sydney and the Hunter Valley. Tony was a great host and driver. I highly recommend Tony and this tour.

Fun, Educational Day in Hunter Valley Tasting Wine and Cheese! - We had a wonderful time on our wine and cheese tasting tour of Hunter Valley. Our tour guide Steve made the trip! He was knowledgeable, entertaining, and welcoming and taught us about the history of Sydney and the Hunter Valley wine region while navigating us from tasting to tasting. The tour included three stops for wine tasting, one stop for cheese tasting, a fabulous lunch and even wild kangaroo sightings. It is a great way to spend a day and well worth the price!
