She took us to a great mix of wineries, plus a cheese shop and chocolate factory, so the day felt exciting and really full. The whole experience was smooth, well-organised, and so much fun.
We left feeling happy, relaxed, and grateful for such a memorable day. Highly recommend!
Craig, our guide, was an absolute wealth of knowledge. His warm personality, kindness, and genuine passion for the region made the day truly special. He took us to unique little wineries we may never have found on our own, and at each stop we felt welcomed and looked after. Having the places to ourselves made it even more memorable, and Craig’s hospitality really elevated the whole experience. He did a wonderful job, and we are very grateful.
A big thank you also to Julie, who provided exceptional service in the lead-up to our tour. She contacted us both a week prior and the night before, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Her professionalism and friendly communication added a lovely personal touch.
We highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a relaxed, informative, and beautifully organised day in the Hunter Valley
Small group tour, excellent choice of tastings. Memorable day in outstanding area with excellent company. Couldn't have been better!
We had a person in a wheelchair and they took the most incredible care of my aunt.
I cannot recommend this company highly enough.
Booking was easy and they were happy to pivot on the day but also checked in to the stops ahead.
Great value for money 10/10
Visited interesting wineries which he knew provided top tastings
Very nice lunch with cheese and chocolate tastings adding to the day
Definitely recommend for anyone wanting a great day in this area

I highly recommend this tour and will definitely book another one next time we are in the Hunter Valley.
Julie was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful.
Her communication throughout the booking was brilliant.
Would definitely recommend HV Tours to others and thank Julie for a great afternoon.

I highly recommend this half-day Hunter Valley tour with lunch, led by the outstanding guide, Julie. Her expertise and engaging storytelling brought the region’s history and highlights to life, while her well-paced itinerary seamlessly blends education and entertainment. Julie’s passion for the area, coupled with her knack for showcasing hidden gems and arranging a delicious lunch, made the experience both memorable and enjoyable. A perfect introduction to Hunter Valley—professional, insightful, and thoroughly delightful.
The beautiful driver on our wedding day was so lovely and seemed so genuinely happy for us. The Mercedes sprinter was a lovely luxury to travel in, complete with chilled bottles of water which was my saviour for nervous dry-mouth before the stroll down the aisle!
Thank you all so much xo
We highly recommend Julie and HV Tours for a personalized and memorable experience. Definitely, I will recommend her to my friends back in the Philippines and Australia who plan to visit the Valley—she truly deserves all the accolades. We will definitely book with HV Tours again. Thank you so much for an incredible tour!
Loved the choices of wineries and the cheese/ chocolate tasting was a welcome break in the middle of the tour!
We were picked up on time by Craig who proved to be extremely knowledgeable and shared lots of information as we were driven around.
We visited 4 boutique wineries, a cheese outlet and a chocolate factory as well as stopping at a 5th winery for lunch (with a glass of wine of course)!
In each of the wineries we were the only group so we were given lots of info by each and were able to sample at least 7 different wines. In fact the first stop we had 10 wines and a generous cheese board to get us started.
The samples of cheese and chocolate were also generous in numbers and there was no undue pressure to purchase anything.
Craig went above and beyond to meet the needs of his customers, even taking a detour to allow one couple to see and photograph some kangaroos.
We were finally dropped back at our motel at 6:00pm so definitely a full day experience.
We booked for a Thursday group tour but something happened with it leaving us with a private tour with just Julie (Score!!).
Julie is absolutely the best tour guide I have ever come across.
She provided us with such an amazing experience of 3 wineries, a catered lunch, and lastly, a cheese & chocolate factory.
Not only did she give us an insight of the region, but also a background story of each place that we visited.
Julie is highly recommended as a tour guide as she is so friendly and a gem in the hunter region.
Thanks so much for the tour & will definitely book with HV Tours again!

Boutique wineries visited were excellent and lunch from the Italian Table was amazing. A great day!
It was a pleasure booking over email with Julie ! Will highly recommend HV Tours
We especially enjoyed our tasting with Johnny at the Hunter’s Dream Estate and our visit to the Wine House.
The van was immaculate and comfortable.
Thanks for a great afternoon.
