The itinerary was comprehensive and very satisfying. Round-trip transfers from Sydney were provided. We visited four wine-tasting locations with beautiful surrounding scenery. Pizza was served for lunch, and there were cheese and chocolate tastings. Overall, this local wine tour offered excellent value for money.

A meticulously planned trip. Our guide, Dave (it's a joke), was very professional, a true gentleman, looked like Geralt of Rivia, and was very attentive. The trip included visits to 3 wineries and a cocktail bar, all carefully selected and unique. The pizza for lunch was also very fresh. Finally, we successfully spotted wild kangaroos, and taking pictures with them was especially fun. The other members of the group were also friendly, making it a very enjoyable trip.

I liked how Dave (the tour guide) tried to bring out the best wine tasting experience for us. He brought skittles and taught us how to taste wine not drink wine. He also explained buildings or areas with historical importance along the way he drove to hunter valley. and he drove us to see wild kangaroos which were lovely!

Our tour leader Alfie and driver Chen were excellent, humorous, and made the whole group atmosphere joyful. In addition to speaking English, they were able to provide bilingual introductions and translations in fluent Mandarin. They were attentive and provided helpful reminders at each stop. Highly recommended.
