The wineries were great, the scenery was beautiful, and the whole day was relaxed and well organised. Nothing was too much trouble for Greg, and his local knowledge added to the experience.
We would highly recommend this tour and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thanks, Greg, for helping make the day so special.
Unfortunately that meant that when I went again a few weeks ago I had high expectations.
There was no loss in the quality of wine or food, but unfortunately where previously my tour guide/driver had been an absolute expert and taken us around telling local stories and explaining fun facts about different vineyards, the bloke we had on this recent trip was nice but told us "I don't know about that stuff, I just drive the bus".
Really friendly guy, but it was disappointing that he couldn't even tell me if the "Two Fat Blokes" branded cheese was made in house or somewhere else.
Nice day, not much of a tour.
We enjoyed 3 wine tastings, one with cheese. It was a perfect introduction to Hunter Valley region if you have limited time.
Thanks you.
We also started late- told to be ready at a certain time, but was picked up half hour late, without any communication.
Overall a fun day though. Two fat blokes was great.
What a lucky group we had, lots of laughs and great wine. Highly recommend Two Fat Blokes and request Greg, he’s a legend!
Would highly recommend
Our tour guide DJ was an absolute legend — super lovely, very funny, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The wineries were great, the atmosphere was relaxed and fun, and we never felt rushed.
Would 100% recommend this tour and would definitely book again. Such a great way to experience the Hunter Valley 🍷
This tour offers excellent value for a full-day experience – highly recommended!
The standout was the Small Mouth tasting, which was a fun novelty and a real highlight of the day. The only practical downside was an unexpected stop for petrol on the return journey to our accommodation.
Overall, an enjoyable day for a casual tasting experience, but those seeking a more premium or wine-focused tour may want to explore other options.
Great pick up and drop off service too , how could you be unhappy with that
Our driver Dave was very entertaining and funny.
We had a great experience, except one stop, but that was the host and nothing to do with the tour guide host or company.
We would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun interactive interesting tour. Would definitely do this tour again!
For most of us, it was our first wine tour in Hunter, and oh how it exceeded our expectations. Our host Nes was funny and charming! She was so knowledgeable about the region and wineries, was super engaging and informative during the wine cheese pairing, and was happy to answer any questions we had (even the silly ones). Thanks Nes for making our experience so much more memorable and creating a super fun atmosphere, in which we took away lots of wine and cheese goodies, and even made some new friends with those on our tour, that we kicked on to the pub after!
A huge shoutout to Greg, our driver, who truly went above and beyond. From the moment he picked us up, Greg made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive, nothing was ever too much trouble. He safely stored all of our wines after each stop, ensured we had everything we needed, and looked after us at every winery with genuine care and professionalism. His easygoing personality and great sense of humour made the day even more enjoyable.
The all-inclusive nature of this tour is what really sets it apart, everything is thought of and taken care of, so all you need to do is relax and enjoy the beautiful Hunter Valley wines and scenery. Each stop was perfectly chosen, with great wine, food, and atmosphere.
If you’re considering a wine tour, don’t look anywhere else. Two Fat Blokes exceeded every expectation, and if you’re lucky enough to get Greg, you’re in for an unforgettable day!
DJ really went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome and ensured we all had a fantastic time. We learned a ton and, more importantly, had a blast doing it. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable day out. Thanks Two fat blokes
