5.00I am a solo traveler who had a wonderful time as a member of a diverse, in terms of ages and nationalities, group of 19 people. on the tour. Chris did a great job navigating through inclement weather and providing wonderful insights about Sydney and the Hunter Valley wine industry. All the stops were fantastic! And the more we imbibed, the greater the number of kangaroos we thought we saw, just as Chris predicted. This was the best tour I've been on in Sydney!

5.00My friends and I had an amazing time on the Hunter Valley wine tour. It was extremely well-organized, and our tour guide, Drew, was fabulous. All the wine and food were wonderful, I couldn't recommend this more. It was a great bang for your buck.

5.00Great way to spend the day and see this beautiful wine country. Collin was a terrific host/guide - very personable and knowledgable. I especially liked being able to visit small, family run wineries instead of the large corporate-owned wineries of other wine country tours.
Drew was amazing! So...

4.00Great experience, but if not staying in the city it is a long day with an early start. The wineries visited were all good, but the stand out was Mount Pleasant. Lunch was a nice addition at Adina. All in all, great value for money.
A great experience for wine and gin lovers
