Put your experience entirely in our hands, select vineyards from our curated list, or build a tour from the ground up – the choice is yours! With our private and personalised wine tours, you can experience the Hunter Valley’s best bits, tailored to your individual tastes.

Signature tour: private tour for couples & groups (tasting fees included)

A premium gourmet experience for wine lovers and beginners alike, our customisable Signature Wine Tour is perfect for couples, families, private groups and people with pets.

We’ll visit 3 – 4 of the Hunter Valley’s very best family-run and boutique cellar doors, nibble on the tastiest local delicacies including local cheeses and/or chocolates, and ensure your private group enjoys our legendary 5-star hospitality.

Expect to meet a grower or wine-maker, inspect some barrels (and their contents!) or taste some grapes off the vines. And whilst we can’t guarantee it, we can find the cutest wine dogs and spot wildlife on most tours.
