We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Newy Tour Co! Keria our tour guide and the owner of the company, was incredibly friendly, warm, and knowledgeable not just about wine, but also about Newcastle and its rich history.
The wine tour itself was absolutely beautiful, and we thoroughly enjoyed every part of the day. We had the chance to sample a wide variety of wines and even discovered a few new favourites.
One standout feature was that Keria was able to pick us up directly from our hotel in Newcastle, which was such a bonus. At the moment, Newy Tour Co is the only tour company offering this service, and it made the whole experience so much more relaxed and convenient.
Thank you, Keria for such a memorable and enjoyable day. We would absolutely recommend Newy Tour Co to anyone looking for a fun, insightful, and well organised wine tour experience.

Wonderful day out with Nathan on the Hunter wine tour. Loved the option to stay in Newcastle, with pick up at our hotel - was quick and easy. Nathan is a fantastic driver and host. Great selection of vineyards where all our hosts were also amazing. Absolutely would consider this an option for wine tasting in the Hunter again and would strongly recommend. Thanks for a fabulous day out.

Thank you Keira for making our Newcastle visit so informative and enjoyable. Your local knowledge made the 3 hour city tour a joy. The Hunter Valley day tour on the next day taking in the natural beauty of the environment, and tasting the produce,the wine,olives,chocolate and cheese made the trip a rewarding experience. If you are doing Newcastle do Newy Tours.

Loved this three hour tour of Newcastle. Kiera was so friendly and had a great knowledge of her home town and its past and present history. We explored the various parts of Newcastle which included walking and driving to locations. I would definitely recommend this tour - it was our first time visit to this City, a great way to learn all the places of interest.

Absolutely love Newy tour co! Previously booked a private wine tour as a wedding gift for some friends and enjoyed it so much we had to use them again for when family visited. Keira is so friendly and knowledgeable and will personalise the tours for wants and needs, which got kangaroos for our visitor from england! My brother in law also went on the Newcastle tour a couple of days later and had a great time and now knows more about Newy than we do. Top company and will see you again soon for our next friend/ family visit! Can’t recommend enough

Whilst visiting Newcastle from Brisbane with friends we had a lovely tour with Keira of the Hunter Valley. I liked that it was a small group (5 of us). The transportation is clean, cool and spacious. The choice of wineries she chose for us to visit were the perfect selection of different types of wine tasting. The food stop is great, plenty of options for all dietary requirements. Would recommend to anyone visiting Newcastle.

Thrilled with our Hunter Winery Tour. It was intimate - just my husband and I and two others, and we were picked up and dropped off to our Newcastle hotel which made things so easy. Keira was a wonderful host! We had a great day among the vines - got a good selection/variety of wineries, history of the region and plenty of stunning wines. Would absolutely recommend Newy Tour Co to anyone wanting to visit the Hunter!

This was the most exceptional wine tasting experience and we could not recommend NewyTourCo enough! We were picked up promptly by our friendly and knowledgeable tour guide Kiera. She was right on time outside our house; it was such an easy process. We kicked off the day at a beautiful Vineyard in the Hunter, Audrey Wilkinson, where the wines were delicious and had views to match. This was one of our favourite stops. From there we visited a variety of other vineyards, a distillery, lunch and a cheese tasting. The knowledgeable people at each place we visited gave us insight and history behind their products and we could feel the passion. I personally learned a lot about wine on this tour. Along the way we also saw Kangaroos which was the best bonus. Have added a few pics but they don't do the scenes justice! The price we paid for the tour was such good value for money considering all costs involved with tastings, transport and the amazing experience NewyTourCo provided. The tour was tailored to us and Kiera made sure we were all looked after from our music playlist to blankets and water to providing excellent history and background on the area, and so much more. Our friends were a mixture of out of towners and locals and we all loved it. A must do tour!

We had a splendid day tour with the lovely Keara yesterday (3rdApril). Just the two of us, beautiful weather, lovely wineries, chocolate, olive, cheese, gin/vodka, and lunch. Keara is great, so flexible with us, and we would recommend Newy Tours to all who visit Newcastle. Many thanks. ???????????????????????? ????

Private Hunter Valley Wine Tour Departing from Newcastle Newcastle, Australia Beautifull Hunter valley Tour April 2024 Kiera was the perfect host. Local and well researched and quite flexible, We included the beautiful Newcastle Gardens so great to have a walk. We are not great wine drinkers so good to have some variety and to be picked up from Newcastle was definitely a bonus. Very comfortable and most enjoyable experience. Really need to book in advance although we were fortunate to get our day of choice at late notice.

Did a small-group wine tour of Hunter Valley with Newy Tour Co over the long weekend, and it was great! The smaller group was great for a solo traveller like me, making it easy to get to know others compared to a larger group, and the winery choices were amazing. I can't imagine a larger group tour being able to do two of the wineries we visited. Also, Keira who drove us around was a knowledgeable host and very professional. Definitely worth the cost for the tour, which may be a little pricier than other tours. Highly recommended!!
