About this experience

Escape Sydney and unwind in the rolling hills of the Hunter Valley on a private full-day wine country tour. Your English-speaking driver will pick you up from your hotel and guide you through Australia’s oldest wine region in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. Begin in tranquil Laguna, a charming rural village surrounded by natural bushland. Then enjoy visits to four hand-selected wineries, each offering unique character and award-winning varieties such as Shiraz, Semillon, and Chardonnay. Meet passionate winemakers, learn about local terroir, and savor included tastings as you explore cellar doors and vineyard landscapes. You may also choose to stop for a leisurely lunch, sample local cheeses and chocolates, or enjoy scenic viewpoints along the way. After a relaxing day among the vines, your driver will return you comfortably to Sydney, with lasting memories—and perhaps a few bottles to bring home.
