Hunter Valley - Food & Wine Tour

It’s time to say goodbye to the hustle and bustle of Sydney’s busy streets and venture out into the rolling hills and luscious landscape of the Hunter Valley, Australia’s oldest wine-growing region and home to some of this incredible nation’s most popular vineyards. A comprehensive full-day tour with several wine-tasting experiences, cheese tasting, and a delicious lunch, this unique exploration of the Hunter Valley region showcases the best of this area’s local produce and provides you with an immersive – and wholly indulgent – experience unlike any other. A wine-growing region is famous for its Semillon – while also producing more than 20 varieties of wine, from Shiraz and Chardonnay to Cabernet Sauvignon and Verdelho. After spending a truly relaxing day in the Australian countryside, you’ll head back to Sydney with memories that are sure to last a lifetime – and a deeper appreciation for Australian wine and the wine-making process.

Excellent cruise on Ovation of the Seas. All the staff were friendly, helpful and dedicated. Spotlessly clean in all areas. Food was excellent in all restaurants with a good choice - something for everyone. The entertainment was good, and the visiting cabaret shows were exceptionally good. A good package and a good service at a reasonable price.
