Very, very good - We have just enjoyed a fantastic day out with Jimmy. The vineyard choices were great and the food he manages to conjure up in such a small space is incredible.

Memorable Hunter Valley Trip! - Jimmy was a fantastic host and the tour was the highlight of my trip to Sydney so far! He was super knowledgeable, gave us access to some of the coolest spots in Hunter Valley and the Sydney Fish Market, and cooked delicious food. Loved every minute of it!

This tour is a lovely way... - This tour is a lovely way to get out of Sydney for the day. Chef Jimmie is very knowledgeable and entertaining. Getting to see the behind the scenes of the fish market was interesting. We really enjoyed all the cellars - one provided an excellent run down of the area and its history, another had lots of goodies to take back as gifts in addition to the great wine, and our last stop gave us an additional round when we had an unexpected flat tire. And oysters and sparkling wine is a new favorite.

My favorite tour of all time! - This tour far exceeded my expectations, and I had initially expected a lot!!!! Jimmy’s menu was stellar! Every item he made was perfection, and the vineyards were beautiful! The wine was lovely and so were all of the staff. One woman in our tour group was there for her 4th time, if that tells you anything about how marvelous this tour was!!!!

Exploring the Hunter Valley wine region with a Chef - The day started with a visit to the famous Sydney Fish Market to pick up some of the provisons for the day. As we traveled 2 hrs to Hunter Valley the chef explained the history of the valley and the wine making industry in Hunter Valley. This is a 1st rate wine and food tour From the beautiful breakfast prepared in a scenic park, to his choices when paring food with the wine samples offered in the winery tasting rooms. It was a top notch experience, well worth the time and money.

Thank you Jimmy for an excellent tour - An unforgettable experience! The chef-led wine tour was exceptional—he paired wines with delicious dishes while guiding us through three charming boutique wineries. The sushi-making session was a highlight, and visiting the Sydney Fish Market for fresh ingredients added a unique touch. The chef’s narration throughout the drive was insightful and engaging. Highly recommend this tour—don’t miss it!
