Fantastic 5.0
It’s a very beautiful journey! My boyfriend and I were from Taiwan. We can understand about English, but not that fluent. Our tour guide, Drew, really took good care of us. Other people were nice to us too! I love the chocolate so much. That’s too bad we can’t buy the chocolate away. Anyway! Find Drew is your best choice~ From Taiwan. 看到Klook上的評論,超級幸運!遇到很棒的導遊Drew, 很照顧我們!我們去了四站,紅酒白酒試喝、pizza+Gin、cheese和wine、巧克力和酒,一整路Drew照顧所有人,最後把我們載回Sydney~儘管大塞車,我們還是有平安抵達!非常推薦!

We had an absolutely fantastic day on the Hunter Valley wine tour with Newy Tour Co. Despite being the only two guests booked, Nathan made the experience feel personal, relaxed and incredibly enjoyable. He was friendly, knowledgeable and a great host throughout the day. The tour offered a perfect mix of wine tastings, spirits, food and wine pairings, finishing with a wonderful cheese and wine experience. The venues were thoughtfully selected, and every staff member we met was welcoming, knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. From start to finish, the day exceeded our expectations and was one of the highlights of our visit. We highly recommend Newy Tour Co and will definitely book again the next time we’re in Newcastle. Thanks, Nathan, for an exceptional day!

Although the pickup time was early, the shuttle was easy to find, and the driver was very friendly and enthusiastic even in the early morning. After everyone had gathered, the driver informed us of the estimated return time based on the number of participants. There was a rest stop halfway through the journey where we could use the restroom. Upon arrival, staff called out names, weighed us, and confirmed if we wanted to purchase the photo and video package. Afterward, we waited in an open area for our instructor to meet us. The instructor helped us put on our gear and taught us what actions to perform. Then, our instructor recorded the entire experience for us. The weather was excellent that day, and the scenery was clearly visible. The freefall part was thrilling, and after the parachute opened, we enjoyed the local scenery from the air. Midway through, the instructor let me try controlling the parachute myself, and then we landed safely. After all participants had completed their turns, we headed back. I purchased the video and photo package, and they quickly edited the video. Overall, the experience was great and very enjoyable. I'm so glad I participated in this activity!

So fun!!! The dune came with many difficulties of slopes and we were lucky that they gave us water as it was hot but windy.

What to know before visiting Newcastle

Quick snapshot of Newcastle

Newcastle is a compact coastal city where tours, indoor games and outdoor & sports activities attract most bookings, and visitor demand rises and falls through the year rather than staying steady. Klook data show activity bookings cluster around those leading categories, so you’ll find plenty of short guided experiences and active outdoor options alongside a few indoor entertainment choices.

When to visit for prices and crowds

Klook booking patterns indicate clear high and low demand periods across the year, with the busiest months standing out and quieter months offering noticeably less demand. Price data drift modestly with those demand changes: when demand is high, expect prices to be higher, and when demand tapers off, prices generally fall. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, choose the quieter months; for peak-season atmosphere and fuller activity schedules, aim for the busiest months identified in the demand summary.

Tips for travellers from Australia

Most travellers typically book activities about one day ahead, with many decisions made at short notice, so Newcastle suits flexible, spontaneous trips. If you’re travelling during the busiest months, plan a little earlier—around four days—to secure popular tours and outdoor activities. Book on Klook when you’re ready to lock in specific dates and times so you don’t miss your preferred slots.
