Discover The Beautiful Hunter Valley With Amazing
Dating back to the early 19th century, there is much to be said about one of Australia’s most recognised and earliest wine regions. Located a touch over 2.5 hour from Sydney, it makes for an irresistible weekend away whatever the occasion, or a fun filled day trip with friends or family.
Drawing comparisons with the California’s legendary Napa Valley, the sub-tropical climate with oceanic influence delivers some of the hottest and wettest conditions of any Australian wine region. The result is a world class Semillon – the iconic wine of the region.
With over 150 years of international acclaim, more than 120 unforgettable wineries producing world renowned Semillon, Shiraz, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon – Hunter Valley is a must visit for any wine connoisseur. And, through our network of passionate and professional tour guides, years of experience and advice, you’ll be lost among some of the most notable vines for your amazing day out.
