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!

Great 4.0
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.

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!

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!

What to know before visiting Newcastle

Quick snapshot of Newcastle and its top experiences

Newcastle is a compact city where day tours, indoor games and outdoor sports dominate Klook bookings, giving the year a steady, activity-focused rhythm rather than sharp seasonal swings. Demand data shows clear months when visitor numbers peak and when they ease off, which shapes how crowded the main categories feel across the year.

Best months to visit for crowds and prices

Klook booking data shows the busiest months are July and August, while demand drops off around February. Price trends move gradually across the year; prices tend to climb toward the busiest months and ease down during lower-demand periods. Travellers seeking smaller crowds and lower prices should aim for February and the surrounding shoulder months, while those after a lively peak-season atmosphere will enjoy July and August. In this market’s data, demand and prices generally move together — busier months are typically the more expensive ones.

Tips for travellers from Malaysia

Most Malaysia travellers in the data usually book about a day in advance, with early planners locking in roughly four days ahead, so Newcastle suits spontaneous short trips as well as brief planning. If you travel during the July–August peak named above, consider booking popular tours and activities a few days earlier to secure preferred times. Use Klook to compare available tours and activities and lock in those experiences once your dates are set.
