1. Chef-Led Hunter Valley Gourmet Food and Wine Day Tour from Sydney
This one’s a top pick for bride and groom foodies as you’ll have your own personal chef throughout the trip! This gourmet food and wine tour will actually start with a trip to the Sydney Fish Markets to get some fresh ingredients for a sushi rolling session. You’ll also shop for your lunch, where you can expect fresh local produce such as barra or roo, paired with some fine wine selections, to be eaten at the Hunter overlooking some gorgeous vineyards.
2. Private Hen’s Sydney Harbour Luxury Cruise Hire
One of the things locals can probably agree on is that the view of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Sydney Opera House never gets old, and so cruising along the harbour will always be a classic. What's even better than that? A private Sydney Harbour Luxury Cruise. Go on this cruise with your best mates, enjoy a grazing platter, snacks and drinks- you can choose between an all inclusive food and drinks package or BYO food and drinks!
3. All-Inclusive Winery Experience in Hunter Valley
For groups who love all things wine and cheese, this is your perfect match. You’ll discover the best of Hunter Valley's wineries - you’ll be taken to VIP cellar door tastings, go on a relaxing vineyard walk, and do a Two Fat Blokes famous cheese and wine pairing masterclass with 9 cheeses and specialty wines!
4. Camden Valley Sunrise Balloon Flight
Camden Valley (less than an hour out of Sydney) is super easy to get to and despite just popping off a motorway, you feel like you're in the country immediately. If you want views of sweeping farmland and distant city, then you should definitely hit up the Camden Valley Sunrise Hot Air Ballooning. It's an early morning start, but we recommend staying at the pick up point Camden Valley Inn the night before to be fresh and ready. You'll get dutch pancakes too for breakfast!
5. Picnic and Wine Tasting Experience at Audrey Wilkinson Vineyard in the Hunter Valley
If you’d prefer a different, more relaxed setting with your mates, you can rather hop on this picnic and wine tasting experience at Audrey Wilkinson Vineyard. You’ll have the opportunity to relax and do things at your own time and pace with a self-guided museum tour, followed by a premium wine tasting and a master class. The best part? You’ll get the chance to roam around the 270-acre property and pick any scenic spot you’d like to enjoy your hamper filled with gourmet snacks for your picnic.
6. Hunter Valley Sunrise Balloon Flight and Breakfast (with champagne!)
What sounds more amazing than being 2,000 feet up in the sky, with views of the whole of Hunter Valley below you and the vast horizons beyond, and then some scrumptious breakfast WITH champagne afterwards? We think this one’s tough to beat and will be an experience of a lifetime with your best mates.
7. Beer Belly Half-Day Beer Tasting Experience in Hunter Valley
If you want to try something new in the Hunter, go on this Beer Belly Tasting Experience. Get to taste the best Hunter Valley-made boutique beers, pair those beers with delicious cheeses and meat- and call it a great day.
8. Newcastle Craft Beer and Food Matching Walking Tour
If vino isn’t your thing, and beer is more your match- check this out.
In this tour, you’ll be enjoying beer tasting sessions at 4 local venues, and food pairing sessions at 3 other local venues! You’ll get to know more about Australia’s best craft beers and see how the best beers are brewed.
9. Port Stephens Sandboarding Experience
This one’s perfect for the bucks, or any adrenaline junkies, really. Go sand boarding down Stockton Sand Dunes, one of the largest sand dunes in the country, and compete with your mates. It’s going to be a bumpy ride!
