- 256kyliej0 contributions5 out of 5 - SO MUCH FUN!Such a great tour! My partner & I joined another 2 couples & our amazing driver Glen - we couldn’t have asked for a better group! We went to 4 wineries & a brewery. We loved the wine & cheese pairing at 2 Fat Blokes and the picnic lunch! Highly recommend this tour!Written 7 October 2024
- 990zoem0 contributionsLuv this tour including JulzUs girls did Uncork the Hunter tour and we had the best time with Julz. She was amazing and made our day so memorable. She was also happy to drop us off for our dinner reservation and picked up the hubbies on the way. I highly recommend this tour. Thanks, JulzWritten 6 October 2024
- Escape219385117130 contributionsAwesome tour!This wine tour is very worth the money. Dave made the day really enjoyable. And to finish off with a beer was a great touch. Would definitely do again. Thanks very much guys!Written 30 September 2024
- Millseym010 contributionsFlavours of Hunter tourDisappointed with the tour. Picked up late and were advised when they arrived that they were low on staff and it was the drivers first day on the job (assisted with another guide). Was not given any information/introduction to the area or where we were visiting nor were the others on the tour . No interaction. We had to ask where we visiting next. Basically felt like it was a pick up and drop of service. Have been on other wine tours where we were given a "tour" and the guides has been friendly and happy to chat. It was more a drivers lesson and the assisted guide was telling the driver where to go. We were just along for the ride. Visited Two Fat Blokes and the wine and cheese tasting was good but the host told so many stories that it was dragging on. Was not worth the money and would of better spent on an Uber to take us around.Written 30 September 2024
- H5393KJmegane0 contributionsAmazing tour, would highly recommend!Myself and my friends went on this tour and had an amazing time with tour guide Julz she was so funny and enthusiastic! We thoroughly enjoyed our wine and cheese tasting at two fat blokes, it was definitely the highlight of the day! The vodka and cider tastings were also delicious and fun to experience! I would highly recommend this tour to anyone and everyone, especially if Julz is your guide you’ll have the best afternoon 🫶🏼Written 29 September 2024
- amandasY7836XK0 contributionsHunter Valley At It's BestWell organized and informative full day tour. Great way to start at Two Fat Blokes own quirky place, and interesting to learn about the pairings of cheeses and wines. great company on the day, meeting new people, and having a chat and a laugh. good selection of different venues and did not feel rushed at all. Impressive spread for lunch too. Many thanks to our patient driver Glen.Written 28 September 2024
- A1812QJpaulab0 contributionsA great day outA fabulous day with knowledgeable and entertaining guide Glen, assisted by Glenn. The opening stop of wine and cheese tasting at Two Fat Blokes gave us skills and information that assisted us for the remaining visits, and the provided picnic lunch was delicious. The tour catered for everyone... including a vegan and we stopped so overseas visitors could look at kangaroos and at a supermarket so we could grab something for dinner knowing none of us would be safe to drive. A fridge in the back kept purchases cold, attention to detail and accuracy of timings for pick up and moving between venues was excellent. I fully recommend this tour.Written 24 September 2024
- rachelsT7362MG0 contributionsAn extremely fun and informative experience. Highly recommended.My husband and I had an amazing and fun time. Our host, Glen, was very friendly and knowledgeable. We particularly loved the cheese and wine matching. We also met a great bunch of people on the tour which made the experience even more enjoyable. We did the half day tour in the morning and highly recommend it. The only thing we would have done differently is ordered some food at the second tasting. Our tour finished late (out of the host's control) which pushed out our lunch plans to very late in the afternoon.Written 17 September 2024
- 235kyliep0 contributionsDave for the win!!We started the day with the very entertaining Dave who was happy to share his wealth of knowledge of the area including but not limited to wineries food and their heritage. He was very accommodating, knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. The wine, chocolate and cheese experiences we indulged in were both varied and delicious. We would definitely recommend this tour as it was one of the highlights of your trip,Written 13 September 2024
- rachelmI3245SM0 contributionsCouldn't recommend more!!Highly recommend Two Fat Blokes Wine Tour!! We had THE best time on the half day tour. Glen our tour guide was amazing - super knowledgeable and most importantly fun. Thanks so much again Glen for making my birthday so memorable!!Written 5 September 2024
- tanealn20240 contributionsBest way to see the wineries the Hunter has to offer!My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our all day wine tour with Two Fat Blokes. It was the best way to see 4 wineries and a brewery across the Hunter, without having to worry about driving ourselves. Plus, we were never hungry with the cheese tasting, lunch and chocolate tasting included. Amazing value for money! Glen was our tour leader and he was fantastic! He had a great personality and banter, which just made the whole day even better.Written 27 August 2024
- X8119ZAteresar0 contributionsGreat half day wine and cheese tour!We did this half day tour a couple of years ago and enjoyed it so much that we decided to do it again and it didn't disappoint. We loved that the tour started with wine and cheese matching at the Two Fat Blokes Kitchen. We then visited two more wineries which were different to those that we had visited on our previous tour. Our driver, Julie, was very knowledgeable and very entertaining. The company is prompt with communication and pick up instructions and seems to be the only one to offer half day tours which is our preference.Written 27 August 2024
- petecT5287CZ0 contributionsRealy good tourDave was fantastic and the tour was well worth it. Lunch provided was excellent. The wineries were worth visiting and Two Fat Blokes own winery (with cheese) is worth a visit on it's own. It might not look polished but it has it's own charm...Written 26 August 2024
- O1696NYannem0 contributionsGreat time.Had a great time at Two Fat Blokes wine and cheese 1 hour tour. Recommend this tour. Staff were excellent and very knowledgeable about the wine and cheese. We ended up purchasing 5 wines and all the cheeses.Written 26 August 2024
- kyliiee20180 contributionsA really fun time!!This tour was so much fun, I highly recommend asking for Greg as your tour guide!! He is a legend and went out of his way to accomodate to all of our needs, made sure we were all having a great time. All the wineries were so much funWritten 25 August 2024

Best part of the tour was the first stop at the 2 Fat Blokes - great cheese pairing with excellent wines with Andy a great guide.
The next 2 stops were pretty boring, seated in a cold room tasting wine with no nibbles. Andy disappeared for the rest of the tour,
Tour is only 3 hours 20 minutes not 4 hours long.
Expensive for the experience

It was the wine & cheese pairing that caught my attention when considering which tour we’d choose for our brief Hunter valley tour….& it did not disappoint!
What a great intro to the wines of the region from a knowledgeable guide. Two more wineries with extensive tasting & our palettes were well & truly satisfied
Thanks to the ‘Fat Blokes’ for a ‘fat’ Hunter time

Our tour guide was Julz who was fabulous. She was very knowledgeable and very funny. We ere a couple making up a group of 10 on the tour. She did make us all laugh and made us feel relaxed and that made for some very interesting conversation. I would recommend this tour to everyone who visits the Hunter Valley.
Well done Julz.

Had a good wine & cheese tasting at Two Fat Blokes. Limited to around 12 people per session we enjoyed a variety of wines with matching cheeses. Started with the white wine, followed by the reds and finishing with a ‘sticky’.
Knowledgeable and welcoming staff made this a very enjoyable afternoon.

We booked wine and cheese tasting experience for the second time and Dave was an excellent tour guide. We ended up joining the rest of the afternoon tour and visited 2 more wineries.
I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to learn about the perfect cheese and wine matching!
We had an awesome experience with this company and we will book it again!

The Tour Day was great and just like the weather.
The visited 3 wineries were
2 new to me and they had their unique ways.
Oakvale - new owners and with their own modern style and atmosphere. Jess was amazing with the serves and the friendly service was outstanding
Organic and freshness about the wines.
Glandore - a new experience with a twist of great flavours. Kellie was great and very helpful and knowledgeable.
Two fat blokes - a new experience with a cheese plate to compliment the wines. Very interesting.
Well worth the trip

Awesome experience, fantastic day. The driver had great taste in music. I had booked a wine tour with another company in advance, they cancelled on us on the Monday morning, rang Two Fat Blokes and had a tour organized on Tuesday. Great customer service from start to finish
