The day was off to a poor start as the number of people on the tour was 20 instead of the no more than 14 promised. The seats and leg space of the vehicle that took us out to the Hunter Valley was similar to the space in a budget airline and was not the luxury vehicle that was promoted by the description. For us, the winery picks were not what we were hoping for but the wines were all of good quality. The hosts at all of the wineries were friendly and knowledgeable. The wineries that had food pairings (either cheese or chocolate) were very good. Unfortunately, the wine and cheese pairing was directly after lunch when we were full. It would have been nice to have that pairing before lunch because we were offered some of the wines at lunch (which was at the same venue).

We had a lovely day (my husband and I and 2 other couples) on our full day Hunter Valley Wine Tasting Tour. It was exactly what we were looking for. Chris, our driver/ guide, was incredibly professional and personable. He took great care of us, I felt very safe, and he ensured all went smoothly and that we kept on schedule. Great tasting opportunities and a really yummy lunch! Thanks so much!

We thoroughly enjoyed our small group trip for wine tasting in the Hunter Valley. Michael, the tour guide was not only knowledgeable but so kind and extremely helpful. Driving up to the Hunter Valley the scenery was lovely and the four spots we stopped each had a slightly different flavour in presentation and wines. The distillery was a nice change and allowed each of us 6 flavors of our choice. Lunch was good. Give this tour a try.well worth it!

Overall, the wine tasting trip was very good and good value for money. We went to 3 wineries and one gin/vodka tasting venue. We also had a cheese and chocolate pairing which was great. All of the tour guides were very knowledgeable and good at their jobs. We learnt a lot and had some great wine. We also bought a very nice wine for only $30. The bus there was comfortable and the driver gave us some fun facts about Sydney/Hunter Valley on route. The only downside for us personally, was the lunch. You did get a glass of wine or beer with it but the food was insanely bog standard. I could make much better at home. But we mainly went for the wine, so didn't really fault our experience much. Would still definitely recommend

My sister and I joined this group tour Feb 2024 and had an incredible time. We were spoiled with delicious wines and food throughout the day, and we were even lucky enough to see wild kangaroos! Our driver was very courteous and communicated everything clearly. The group size was perfect, not too small, not too big.

Tom_O

From the moment he found us since we missed the meeting point ( my fault) to our departure at the end of the wine tour, our driver/guide was the epitome of professionalism and helpful guide. He kept us informed of everything that was happening, ensured we were all taken care of at each stop, and kept us on schedule throughout the day. He made our day enjoyable and educational.

Great trip, 13 of us and Tom the driver. Incident on Harbour Bridge delayed us a little but Tom handled this very well and bus really comfortable. Visited some great Wineries in a leisurely way, no one was rushed. Had superb lunch with cheese and more wine to follow. A great day and very good value for money. Thank you Tom 👍
