It was brilliant, a great day. The coach driver was very friendly, the staff at the wineries were great and the food and wine was beautiful. Two thumbs up!

Terrific value for the money. Gorgeous countryside, spotless restaurant at the winery with an excellent meal. The driver was friendly, informative and helpful. Do not miss this tour. Excellent way to see the countryside in comfort.

This was the second time I did this tour and it was as amazing as the first time. The driver/guide gave excellent, entertaining commentary on the way to the Hunter Valley. The tour of the first winery was interesting, however I would have liked to have less time for lunch here, and more time at the second winery as we did not have enough time to do any cheese tasting there. The village shops at Hunter Valley Gardens are a great end to the day!

The 3 wineries we went to were nice but one of them told us the history of their winery that we missed out on some of the wine tasting because she was so long winded. The food served was extremely good and was worth the day's tour.

A full day out! Great narration and stories from our very professional and personable driver and plentiful wine tastings. A little too long wandering Hunter Garden Village, but otherwise a perfect day in the Hunter!

Fantastic tour... really enjoyable, would recommend this tour to all my friends and family. The only disheartening thing about this tour was - how I am going to get all the wine (that I bought) home!

What a great day out! Our driver was very funny and knowledgeable about the areas we were passing through, which made the long bus ride easier to handle. The first stop was at a cute little pub where a cold drink was well enjoyed. We spent plenty of time at each winery, and came home with a few bottles for later. The lunch was a lovely hot dinner with salad on the side, just the right amount at the right time. I have to say it was a long day, but well worth the effort.

A good day for those that don't know much about wine; to discover how it is made, and where it comes from. Even more importantly you have the opportunity to taste a couple of really nice wines and enjoy some lovely scenery.

Overall a good tour. I have to admit that I was hesitant about the large bus, but the bus was very comfortable and the tour is structured to allow many stops so that you do not have to spend too long on the bus. Of course the ride out to the Hunter Valley and back is a far distance, but nothing can be done about that. I tasted a lot of great wines and I was very impressed with the quality of the lunch. It was delicious! The stop at Hunter Valley Gardens was a great end to the day. I just wish the Hunter Valley wasn't so far.

Great tour with plenty of time at the wineries. It was nice to have free time at the last stop at the Hunter Valley Gardens where we did a tasting at the Tempus Two cellar door. The only thing I would change is more time at the pub in Wollombi which was awesome.

Overall, the tour was excellent. The lunch provided was more like a supper meal - very good. The last winery visited could have done a better job since it was done on your own rather than a scheduled stop like the first two.

My preferred score is 3.5 stars. Our driver/guide was very friendly, informative and helpful. The wineries (including lunch) were well chosen and our route was varied and interesting.

I thought we would do more wine tasting and spend less time on the bus going from place to place.
