- not good selection of vineyards - horrible bus with tight seatbelts - the most expensive of the 3 tours we have done and worst value for money

Great day with tasty regional wines and liquors. A really fun day for anyone who enjoys fine wine and flavored vodkas and gins.

Cris was an excellent guide/driver. He pulled over to let us get pictures of some kangaroos. The van was not suitable for tall people as the seat rows were too close together. If the van is full it will be quite uncomfortable for tall folks.

I went on this tour back in Nov 2025. I really enjoyed the tour & our driver! You are essentially getting 3 very different experiences with one day trip. The wine & cheese paring (supper high energy & engaging due to our hosts) , Wine & cholate pairing (very chill & educational plus the chocolates chosen were great!) and tequila tasting (made the group very social) were all very different and unique experiences.

Avoid this if you have any experience with wine or touring other vineyards. While the first vineyard was nice, the next two stops were in back rooms of restaurants with no views at all and defeated the point of traveling to see the wine country. To travel two hours, I wanted to see views and actual vineyards, not the lackluster back dining room of a restaurant, crammed with our whole tour group. On top of that, the planning of the day just made no sense. Why would you have us eat a huge lunch and then immediately after in the same room, have us do a cheese tasting? We were also an hour and a half late getting back to Sydney, and the whole day does doesn’t seem worth it.

Not really wine tour. Only when to one winery and two wine bars. Didn’t need to drive 2 hours each way to goto a wine tasting bar. Could have done that in Sydney. It was so loud it was impossible to here the wine Stewart.

Great experience worth the long journey from Sydney to sample some great wines at three vineyards and then liquors and gin and vodka sampling too, lovely pairings with chocolate and cheese and a beautiful lunch, recommend.

We were on the January 15th wine tour. I can't remember our driver, but I want to say it started with a D. I do remember he was Brazlian asnd he gave us a wonderful French Asain fusion resturant for dinner. Anyways, he explained how the day was going to go. He was wonderful. The 2+ hour drive both ways was very nice. He told us at every winery what to expect and how long we'd be there. He also was every ones personal photographer. He joked with us. There was a young group of girls who wanted to play thier music. He asked everyone if that was ok. Once we approved, the music was spot on. We all sang to together and made the time even more enjoyable. Thanks a lot. The wine tour was well worth it.

This was a wonderful trip. Saw several wineries/vineyards. I went to a distillery as well. The driver was very knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommend.
