A fun and delicious afternoon! - We three old gals on a birthday celebration were treated to a fabulous afternoon with visits and tastings to three boutique premises: a distillery, a winery (with a huge antipasto platter laid on) and another winery with an intriguing wine/chocolate matching for us. A wonderful driver/guide looked after us and we felt this tour was great value and a delightful way to spend an afternoon. Though purchases aren't necessary I couldn't resist buying something from all three premises. Highly recommended!!

Highly recommend! - The tour was a great taster for Hunter Valley. Loved going to family owned wineries and the distillery was so great! All the products were locally sourced and the food quantities provided were a lot larger than expected.
The iHop team were so helpful and communicative from booking right to the end. Special shout out for Flick who truly went above and beyond for our group!

Fun day tasting cheese and wine with Tim - Great experience with Tim as our guide. He gave us lots of fun facts and explained the itinerary well. We loved the choice of stops, especially getting to say hello to the dogs!! Nice selection of spirits, wines, chocolates, and cheese. Got a great taste of the Hunter. Tim let us loose with our choice of music, which resulted in some raucous singing!! Great day overall, and I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for fun arvo in the Hunter. Thanks again, Tim!

Great Tour and amazing people - My wife and I had such a great afternoon as we visited a few of the winery's but all were just fantastic.
Felicity our guid was such an amazing person and really friendly, she was able to interact with all the guests yet get us to our locations on time and very knowledgeable.
We would definitely recommend this tour and guid (especially the afternoon one) as you get amazing sunset colours of the Hunter. If you have a few hrs to spare then this is the tour for you.
