Tour guide: Our tour guide, Dave (or Drew), was enthusiastic throughout the trip, introducing us to the Hunter Valley and Sydney's city culture, and also took great care of us. Itinerary: We visited 4 wineries, spending 45 minutes to 1 hour at each winery. Afterwards, we would get on the bus to go to another winery, which allowed me to catch up on sleep on the bus before continuing to drink 😆. Each winery offered tastings of 4-6 types of red and white wine. This time, one winery in particular offered gin tasting, which was a new and special experience. The only drawback of the trip was that I thought I could experience the winemaking process; it would have been perfect if there was this element. Meals: A pizza meal is provided, where you can try different flavors. The two wineries we visited in the afternoon were paired with cheese and chocolate to accompany the red and white wine tastings, which tasted quite good. It's a pity that the chocolate was not for sale🤣. Drinks: You will try more than 20 types of red and white wine throughout the day. You will be slightly drunk after drinking the whole trip. If you are not a good drinker, don't force yourself🤣. Value for money: Overall, it is very worthwhile for everyone to go 🙆🏻‍♂️. If you love red and white wine, you can't miss this experience.

We joined the beach and dune tour with sandboarding today and had such an amazing time. The tour itself was so much fun and the staff were all really friendly and helpful, which made the whole experience even better. After the tour, we realised we had lost our car key and felt so embarrassed and stressed. To our surprise, one of the staff actually called us to check, and it turned out my partner had accidentally left the key in the tour car. We were so lucky they found it and gave it back to us! They honestly saved our day, our trip home, and even our money. We really appreciate their kindness and care. It’s not just a great tour, but also a team of people who go above and beyond for their guests. Thank you for making our Sunday so special—we will definitely recommend this tour to everyone!
