About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- lucyfC6925BI0 contributionsFabulous Afternoon 😊My partner and I had a private tour with Ben during July 2024 - he was wonderful; enlightening us both on Mudgee’s modern history, alongside providing slots Of knowledge regarding the local vinard/winery industry.

- Carole C0 contributionsMudgee IntroFast informative reply from Ben on making enquiries & advised us of which wineries we were visiting on the tour so we could book others for the rest of our trip during covid. Prompt pickup from Ken our driver. Ken offered local info and a bit of history which was nice but he mentioned a few times that he prefers mature groups. The wineries we visited were smaller ones which was great as we may not have thought to visit them. Blacklea taught us how to taste wine correctly and again - prefer mature tasters and no nonsense people.Written 11 October 2020

We did the half day wine tour with our driver Dan. We visited three beautiful wineries and had a fantastic time. Ben was great in communicating the itinerary ahead of time and Dan made sure the bus was Covid-safe for everyone.
I would recommend Mudgee Tourist Bus for wine tours!

We had an absolutely ripper day with Mudgee Tourist Bus and in particular our driver Ken! These guys pulled out all stops to make sure we were happy with a unique arrangement for the Wine Tour and took us on a really authentic wine tour where we visited some of the smaller, family owned cellar doors.
Along the way Ken was always up for a yarn and gave us a really interesting run down of the history of Mudgee along with the modern day happenings around town.
Could not recommend these guys more!! Especially if you get Ken, the man is a legend!

We did an afternoon wine tour and our guide/driver Ben was absolutely amazing, what a wealth of knowledge. Ben kept us entertained between stops with a history lesson on Mudgee, his local knowledge is excellent. We were expecting an average drive between cellar doors, but were pleasantly surprised & entertained by his stories. If you find any of the wineries uninteresting, you’ll enjoy Ben’ commentary on the way to the next. The afternoon tour includes stops at three cellar doors, you can put in requests or just go with the flow and let Ben guide you. We had two cellar doors (probably a bit mainstream) on our wish list that we visited, both were very good if a bit commercial. The third was Ben’s pick and dare I say the best. First Ridge cellar door is a beautiful building constructed from shipping containers, the views across the vineyards amazing and the wines delicious. We’ve been on wine tours around Australia, this was the very best.

On our recent trip to Mudgee we went on a half day wine tour. For convenience we were picked up from our accommodation and the driver Ken was on time and very personable. Not only did we visit three good quality wineries Ken included a town tour pointing out many buildings of significance and imparted his local knowledge. It was a fun and relaxing way to spend the afternoon and we highly recommend Mudgee Tourist Bus company.

Tony was a bloody legend. So accomodating great recommendations and so fun and friendly to be around. He put up with a loud group of girls all day long with a smile on his face and made us all laugh & enjoy our day. Such a great time

A good way to experience some of the vineyards without the stress of bookings and driving! Our driver Mal tried to accommodate us by taking the three couples to vineyards we hadn't yet seen which was good. The only problem was that we were put outside at the first winery (Petersons) and the staff forgot about us resulting in a big chunk of our limited time being wasted. The other downside is the tasting fees added to the cost of the trip especially when they are $10 per person...made the $170 per person into $210 pp without purchasing anything so be aware of that if you choose a tour.

A fantastic half day, morning & early afternoon trip around the lovely vineyards of Mudgee.
Ben really gave us a very enjoyable experience with some extra special delights, visiting Henry Lawsons home & school. And to top it all off a visit to Baker Williams Distillery a must have visit for all gin & schnapps lovers.
First class & we highly recommend Mudgee Tourist Buses for anyone visiting the fantastic Mudgee region.

My girlfriend and I were meant to go to Mudgee during the lockdown. I had initially contacted Ben to ask for a refund but after Ben called me immediately after an email, I knew that I had to meet him. He was cheerful and we chatted like we’ve known each other for years. We promised to go up to Mudgee after the coronavirus debacle and to bring another friend with us!
However, having decided to go to Mudgee the first weekend after the restrictions were eased, we found it hard to find accomodation. I contacted Ben for suggestions who then reserved a room for us at the local Inn!
We had the best time and Ben was able to create a relaxed atmosphere amongst the group. So much so that we were quieten down at a vineyard!
My girlfriends and I cannot recommend Mudgee Tourist Bus enough! Ben was the absolute best to deal with and we had the greatest time! If you are looking for a good time in Mudgee, please consider going with Mudgee Tourist Bus! You won’t regret it!

We did the all day wine tour with Greg. He was such a kind person who knew lots about the wineries in Mudgee. His relationships with the staff at all the wineries showed what an accommodating person he was. He was timely and spaced the day out well, whilst also letting us enjoy a wide range if wineries. He further told us the best places to eat and dine for all hours of the day and shared his knowledge on not only the wine, but the sights in Mudgee and fun quirks to see. When talking with staff at the wineries they voiced that Mudgee tourist bus was the friendliest company so we were glad to have picked them on a whim. We cannot wait to come back and will definitely be booking with this company again!

Overall a fabulous day out. Picked up promptly in the morning from our air bnb and itinerary laid out for the day. Our driver was lovely, however at times we were rushed through the tastings in order to make the next one on time - could be beneficial to have one less winery visit in order to have a more relaxed experience. Unfortunately we were all extremely disappointed with lunch - equivalent of $50 for the lunch inclusive full day tour, yet all the meals were about $20 in value and no drinks included. The meals in itself were small and average quality, maybe worth $15 in all seriousness?? A good day all round just not worth the $150 per person in our opinion.
