This is the only tour to The Hunter Region that offers the real Aussie Outback, history, Aboriginal Culture andWine tastings in a full one day of complimenting experiences. Meet some of the locals, travel through beautiful National Parks, learn of the harsh settlers days and convict conditions as they worked here to establish the European Australia. Then look back to what it was like for Australian Aboriginals before and after white people arrived.

7.30AM: We collect you at your Sydney accommodation and departing the city, we travel north over the Sydney Harbour Bridge via the Gore Hill Freeway to join the Pacific Highway and then the F3 Freeway. Crossing the Hawkesbury River we leave the Freeway to travel on sealed roads through the Yengo National Park. Here we travel through contrasting rural farmland and Australian Natural Bush, mountains ranges and grazing land. Enroute we view several sections of the original convict built Old Great Northern Road. This road, built in the 1820’s was considered to be one of the world’s great engineering feats of this time and is an exceptional example of English road building. We stop to enjoy a delightful morning tea before continuing through the historic Wollombi village, established in the early 19 th Century and a wonderful example of the small colonial rural townships of this era.

Departing Wollombi, our journey takes us over Mt View where we gain a panoramic perspective of the Hunter Valley wine areas. From here we travel to the first of our Boutique Wineries to sample premium Hunter Wines before adjourning to a renowned Vineyard Café to enjoy our lunch.

During the afternoon we take the opportunity to sample some of the Hunter Valley’s famous wines at a further 2 respected boutique wineries and you have the opportunity to purchase wines that are not available anywhere else. Your guide will explain wine making and the industry in the Hunter. We return to Sydney via the freeway for arrival at your hotel approximately 5.30 – 6.00pm.
