With the imposing Brokenback Mountain in the background, the Hunter Valley has been home to winemaking for nearly two hundred years. Big names work alongside boutique family makers and winemaking dynasties stretching back over six generations to produce world-class wines.
Travel across Sydney Harbour Bridge and leafy Northshore suburbs to escape the city. Soak up the stunning scenery as we cut through sandstone hills, while passing national parks with dense cover of the eucalyptus trees. Cross picturesque Hawkesbury River home to pearl and oyster farms. After brief refreshment stop, country road will lead you via Cessnock town centre to the first winery.
Find yourself on an amazing animal adventure as you encounter some of the most loved and feared animals that call Australia home. Wander the leafy bush setting and get up close with wombats, dingoes, echidnas, platypus, and crocodiles. Observe snakes and spiders milked for venom, step into koala enclosure and don’t miss the opportunity to hand feed kangaroos and wallabies.
Begin your own wine story with the visit to two out of over 150 wineries; meet the makers, get their riddles and relish in premium wine tasting. Surrounded by undulating vineyards with wild kangaroos about, no matter what season, there is always time to appreciate glass of good wine.
Enjoy casual, fresh, and delicious one course a’ la carte lunch with complimentary glass of wine, beer, or soft drink in one of the Hunter Valley’s celebrated restaurants. All efforts are made to cater for most dietary restrictions. However, they must be clearly advised at the time of booking.
The valley makes exceptional dairy products, including hard-rind and soft cheeses. Sample from different varieties and find your new favourite while getting your questions answered by the shop connoisseurs.

Mark, I think I’ve expressed to you how appreciative I am that you were our Tour Director in Australia. I realize how much hard work you did to keep things running smoothly. All the members of the group appreciated the special helpful things you did for them. For me, it was especially that fabulous last day tour. Your personality is special and great for a tour director. Take care and come visit us in the US one day. Sincerely,
Jean W
Mark took a family of three adults around for the day and it was a pleasure. We were picked up at our hotel promptly when scheduled and drove to the blue mountains in the comfort of his van, where we spent a wonderful morning at featherdale with the kangaroos. We did the typical tourist stops at scenic world which was a bit touristy but nonetheless something we wanted to see. then we drove closer to three sister rock formations and got another scenic look and even a chance to stand under the formation. Mark was a pleasure to be with all day and we couldn’t have done it without a car. He suggested a delicious little place for a quick lunch too. I highly recommend a tour with Mark.

Your comments regarding Aboriginal culture were especially insightful! The course you took sounded fascinating. Thanks again!
