The Hunter Valley is Australia's oldest wine making region that is located just over 2 hours drive from Sydney.

We will choose up to 3 vineyards to visit after discussing your personal tastes.

Together we'll discover its quaint modern day reality while learning about its' interesting history. Wollombi is the perfect stop on the way to the vineyards. It's a great place to enjoy a coffee and snack. We'll learn about and explore the towns beautifully preserved old buildings and even visit the Endeavour Museum (+$2) if that interests you.

Wildlife Park Option: If you are interested in Australian and foreign animals the Hunter Valley Zoo is a great destination to include on your tour.
