Taste your way through the Hunter Valley, Australia’s oldest wine region, on a small-group day tour from Newcastle. You’ll travel in a group of no more than 11 guests with pick up and drop off at your Newcastle address, so you can sit back and enjoy the scenery while your guide shares engaging commentary on the region’s history, winemaking and local culture. Please note the specific venues featured on each tour can vary.
Along the way you’ll enjoy three exclusive seated wine tastings, each set in a relaxed cellar-door environment. The day also includes an artisan vodka and gin tasting that explores how these award-winning spirits are made, plus a paired tasting of local cheese, chocolate or small bites to show how food changes the flavour of wine. Lunch is at 4 Pines at The Farm, where you may choose an à la carte meal (at your own cost) while looking out over the vines. The mix of iconic labels and family-run cellar doors is hand-picked so each stop offers something different.
