About this tour

What to expect
You'll be collected from central Sydney early morning and driven north into wine country. The day splits between structured winery visits—each offering a different perspective on Hunter Valley production—and leisurely exploration. Expect to taste wines at each stop, learn how the region's producers work, then settle into a proper lunch at a local restaurant. After eating, you're free to wander the chocolate company, pick up local goods, or simply sit with valley views. It's a social day with other travellers, guided but unhurried. The return drive arrives back in Sydney late afternoon.
