What a great day, Our guide Chris was so entertaining and the wine stops had different samples to try. One of the planned stops had a fire that morning and it was where we were supposed to have lunch. They were able to rearrange on the fly so we didn't experience a disruption. The only thing that would have improved the tour would be lie flat seats for the return ride to Sydney!

Dave arrived on time, and was such an upbeat guy. He filled us in on the flow of the day. He talked the entire drive and gave us All such a great history lesson about Sydney Australia . He was engaging, and answered any and all questions we had. The wineries we visited were great. The first, Oakville was our favorite . The wine hostess was fun and very knowledgeable, and the wines we tasted there Were excellent. We also had the most delicious lunch at Briar Ridge? winery. One winery did a cheese pairing, and the other a chocolate pairing. We ended at the gin distillery, which was a blast. We tasted way too Many types of gins, and liqueurs. We did buy some liqueurs to bring back home. We had a long but terrific day with Dave. We all wanted to see kangaroos During our Australian vacation. Dave found a “mob of kangaroos “ And he stopped the van and pulled over so we could takes lots of pictures Of the kangaroos. It was the highlight of a great day for us . Thank you Dave

Amazing day with great tour guides. Shout out to Drew and Chris for such an informative tour. We met some great people. Really enjoyed ourselves.

Fantastic day in the Hunter Valley. Excellent your guide, Col, AKA Clip board Dave. Very comfortable 12 seater bus. Visiting a selection of boutique wineries. We weren't fans of the glitter Gin but I'm sure this would appeal to a younger crowd!

We did the Hunter Valley Win, Gin and Food Tastings Tour on 7th March 2024 with Daves Tours. The guide (unfortunately I can't remember his name) was a lovely Italian gentleman who was very welcoming, friendly and knowledgable. We had a lovely day touring various wineries in the Hunter Valley and saw some truly wonderful sights along the way. The Australian countryside is absolutely stunning! As the tour started very early, we drove over Sydney Harbour Bridge at 7.30am and that was an experience in itself! During the tour we went to one winery where there was a demonstration of how wine is made and we visited another where we got a lovely sample of different types of chocolate. Lunch was also included in the tour. We also had the chance to see some kangaroos although they were hiding under the shade of a tree as it was so hot! We were in a lovely small tour group - 7 in all. The only downside was the bus itself. It was very small and rickety and in my opinion, unsuitable for such a long journey - you're on the bus for at least 2.5 hours to get to your first winery (albeit with a coffee/toilet break along the way) and then it's another 2.5 hours back in to the centre of Sydney. The air con packed in at one point too. A larger, more modern, luxury type bus/coach would be much better for such a long journey. That was my only complaint however. Everything else was brilliant although with the length of the journey out and back, I don't know if I would do it again.

First, Dave’s Tours are incredible and the guides are excellent. Colin, Mark etc…great guys!! Second, having done a variety of these tours over the years I find Dave’s the BEST way to visit the Hunter Wineries in a small group but most importantly the best wineries! Not all tours go to the better wineries. Lastly, the transportation is comfortable and the value for the cost is amazing. Will be doing this tour again !!

Went for the hunter valley wine tour with my friend, had an amazing time sampling wines, cheese and chocolate! Our guide Matt was wonderful and entertaining. Thanks Dave team for a great experience!

We had a great time on our all day tour! Chris was a wonderful tour guide and took us to some great spots for our tastings. Highly recommend!

From start to finish the was an amazing experience. I was a solo amongst 15 others. Chris was a very personable and professional guide. Even on a light rainy day the pickup was on time. He was extremely knowledgeable of the area and kudos to him. The wineries were all very boutique and the Gin & Vodka tasting was delightful. I’m not a Gin or Vodka fan but I am now. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants a relaxing wine tasting experience.

Small group cheese & chocolate wine tour with pick up from Central, Sydney. Nice view and thanks to Jackson the driver & the guide we had a great time! Lunch was great with "all-you-can-eat" pizza!!

We did the day trip from Sydney to the Hunter Valley wineries with cheese and chocolate tastings also. Chris was a great host and we had an awesome day. Would totally recommend doing this trip.

Had a thoroughly enjoyable beer tasting Hop Hunter trip on a woefully wet day with wonderful Matthew of Dave's Travel Group today. An excellent host and more than capable raconteur. Cheers mate.

The weather was miserable but Matt was very knowledgeable and kept our small group entertained giving us a fantastic experience.

Nice trip, surprised for the kangaroo hunting. The tour guide is fun & nice as well. Will join the tour held by this company again.

I was a solo traveller but was with a great group of people - the whole minibus really bonded. Erin was a fab guide. Loved tge wine tasting - the hosts were all very different. The first two winery hosts were very informative about their wines and their winery - the third one not so much but he was highly entertaining!!!! If and when you go you will see what I mean. A great day out - would highly recommend.
