  • Lovely day

    We had a fantastic day! It started off a little rough because our Uber did not show so we missed our original pick up time. However, I called the office and was given a later pick up site that we were able to get to in time. The total drive was about 2 hours but Chris stopped after an hour and 15 minutes for a bathroom and breakfast break at a rest stop. We then continued on to the first vineyard, which was beautiful. We tasted at least 6 wines, including a great rose which we took home. Then off to the second vineyard where we tried probably 8 different wines while listening to the host's outrageous stories. On the way out, Chris took us up the road to see a herd of kangaroo that were lounging in a paddock. Lunch was at a local brewery; we had a hearty main dish and could chose a beer or wine to accompany it. We finished at a 3rd vineyard where we paired each of our wines with a different chocolate. The drive was beautiful and it was nice to spend the day in the countryside.

  • Highly recommended it

    Very Nice experience! We left and got on time, the tour was amazing, and it covered different experiences! Gui, our tour guide, is an amazing guy and it was very friendly and respectful with all of us. I definitely recommend a tour with them!

    Excellent bus service, courteous and helpful driver, Michael, helped us find photo opportunities, really good winery choices. Would be nice to have a bus with more legroom.

    We really enjoyed this wine tasting experience. The scenery was beautiful and being with a small group (11 people) rather than a big bus made the trip very pleasant. Michael was an excellent and knowledgeable guide. We were offered a variety of options for lunch and the food was excellent. My advice would be to pace yourself, though, especially during the 1st stops. It was a fair amount of alcohol over the course of the day.

  • Michael was great!

    Our guide was friendly, helpful, and really knew the area. Went out of his way to find kangaroos! The vineyards we visited were varied and we always learned a little something new....and we tasted wine! The only negative is that the motor coach was very uncomfortable, no leg/knee room.

    Great day! Our driver, Chris, was friendly, timely and made the full day of driving pleasant. It is a 20 person extended van with fairly small and cramped seats - comfortable, but not luxurious. Not much in the way of commentary during the extended drive times, but upbeat music filled the van throughout the day. Dave at Sobels winery was first a character to remember, and second provided a great commentary on wine making in Australia, the process and stories throughout the extensive tasting! The lunch was at a beautiful venue with views of the rolling landscape and a full sit down meal. Overall, a great value and a highly recommended tour to experience the Hunter Valley and wines.

    You should not miss this experience. We went to three wineries. Had a wine and cheese pairing and a chocolate pairing. We also had a fabulous lunch. The last stop was a vodka and gin tasting. Our driver Guillermo(?) was the best. He told us all about where we’re going and was warm and friendly. We made a lot of new friends. Just fabulous!!

  • We highly recommend this tour and Michael as their guide/driver!

    We had such a fantastic day on our wine tasting tour in the Hunter Valley. We visited three beautiful vineyards and one distillery, and every stop felt thoughtfully chosen with great wines, friendly staff, and a relaxed atmosphere. What really made the day special was the team running the tour. They were warm, fun, and incredibly attentive. They even helped make my dad’s birthday feel extra memorable, which meant a lot to all of us. A wonderful experience from start to finish. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the Hunter Valley.
