Hunter Valley Scenic Wine Tour with Lunch

What your day looks like

Begin your Hunter Valley Wine Tour with breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour as you cross the iconic Harbour Bridge, en route to one of Australia’s premier wine regions, the Hunter Valley. Our tour offers a remarkable showcase of the region, featuring a carefully curated selection of food and wine experiences designed to delight your senses—there’s something for everyone! The Hunter Valley is renowned for its Semillon, but it also boasts award-winning varieties like Shiraz, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Verdelho. Stroll through picturesque vineyards and visit boutique cellar doors for an immersive wine-tasting experience. Each cellar door has been handpicked for its commitment to exceptional customer service and the quality of its wines, offering two tastings before lunch and one in the afternoon. For lunch, enjoy a delicious café-style meal at Cypress Lakes, set against the stunning backdrop of Hunter Valley Village. After your meal, take some time to explore the unique boutique shops and galleries, and indulge in local produce with an educational cheese-making session at the Hunter Valley Cheese Factory. If time allows, consider visiting the Hunter Valley Chocolate Company, The British Lolly Shop, Kissofire Hunter Valley Liqueurs, or The Garden Cellars; any additional tastings will be at your own expense. Conclude your day at our favourite boutique cellar door, saving the best for last. Enjoy a structured tasting led by a vineyard representative, showcasing their exquisite range of wines. After a day filled with memorable experiences and camaraderie among fellow wine lovers, we’ll begin our journey back to Sydney. Rest assured, we’ll provide comfort stops along the way, ensuring you can relax after a day of indulgence. You’ll return to the city with ample time to grab a meal or catch a show.
