Fantastic 5.0
We had a fantastic day! Our tour guide, Drew, was both knowledgeable and funny. We absolutely loved the round trip transfer option from Sydney (it’s what made this tour standout to us from others), it was easy to get to the meet up/drop off location and we didn’t have to worry about how to get to and from Sydney to Hunter Valley. The quality of the wine and amount we had (plus the gin and vodka tasting) was really good. The cheese and chocolate pairings with the wine were really nice. Pizza/wine lunch was delicious (multiple pizzas ordered to share) I really enjoyed the chicken pizza and the pear salad (pictured). After our last winery stop we went kangaroo spotting which was fun. Thank you Drew and Dave’s Tours, this was really enjoyable, highly recommend!

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!

The original tour was supposed to go to Newcastle, but we were only informed at 6:15 AM on the day of the tour that it was canceled. We were then offered to go to Wollongong for a skydive experience instead. The overall experience was quite good, but the original return time was 11:30 AM. However, we had to wait for everyone to finish their jumps, including those who joined later, so we didn't depart for Sydney until around 2:00 PM, arriving back in Sydney at approximately 4:00 PM. You should set aside a full day for this. You can also walk along the beach nearby, and the weather was nice, so it felt like visiting an extra place.
