Overview

Escape the crowds on a 100% private luxury tour from Sydney to the Hunter Valley. Forget rigid schedules and big buses; your expert guide tailors the day entirely to your pace in your private vehicle, no joined groups !

Travel in premium comfort to Australia’s oldest wine region. You'll enjoy exclusive wine tastings at hand-picked boutique cellar doors, savouring world-famous Semillon and Shiraz. We also visit local artisans to sample exquisite handmade chocolates and artisanal cheeses.
