    As a first time visitor to Australia, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect, but we had such a fun and relaxed wine tour through Hunter Valley. Jackson was a great host and did an excellent job of getting us to and from each place on time. We enjoyed a variety of wines paired with chocolate or cheese, a delicious lunch, and even tried some gin. The tour was a smaller group so we weren't rushed and we all could converse, which was especially nice. After the tour, I realized I accidentally left my sunglasses behind on the shuttle; Dave's was extremely responsive and went the extra mile to ensure they returned my favorite sunglasses back to me--in the U.S.! So, so grateful. The customer service is top notch, thank you so much!

    Awesome brewery tour in Marrickville with our Host Adam (or Dave as we kept calling him..) Went to 3 breweries maybe 4 or 5 testers in each one. Was great fun and we also learned a bit. Great for a lads afternoon out. Daves were good to deal with as they did a custom time for us starting and finishing early on a Sunday 🍺🍻🍺

    Brilliant tour. Our tour guide Colin was funny and very knowledgeable about wine and how it was made. He was happy to answer any questions or just have a good conversation with us. The pizza was really nice and we had a very generous amount. You won't go hungry if you like pizza! The 3 vineyards we were brought to were all great in their own regards but my favourite was McCaffreys vineyard. Chris was hilarious and very passionate about his wine. My only issue with the tour was that the pick up point for Newcastle was in a very inconvenient location. To travel by public transport it would take 1.5 hours minimum. This is the reason I can't give 5 stars but other than that a fantastic day thanks Colin!

    Definitely worth doing. 🍻 This was a super fun way to see The Rocks, learn some of the area history, and experience 4 pubs. Our guide, Tom, was awesome. Our group consisted of tourists and locals, which made it even more fun. (Wine was also available at each stop). Highly recommend.
