Options Along the Way
If your so inclined, first visit one of the many historic townships in the valley or head off to the Australian Reptile and Wildlife Park.
See choice of attractions you can visit - tell your personal guide of your preference(s) but consider how long you wish to stay at any of them, driving time between, and the Hunter Valley itself (approx 1.5 - 2 hours drive to and from Sydney, each way).
You can vary the tour with stop-offs, but a normal day tour takes anywhere from 6 to 10 hours.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, normally personal tour guides are not allowed to drive much longer than that in a day. Safety comes first.
If you wish to try something spontaneous and there is enough time, don’t worry, guides are usually equipped with GPS Satellite Navigation.
Corporate and Conference Clients Welcome.
Extended Tours
Tours are available further afield and for longer periods than Sydney and it’s immediate outer regions, but subject to availability and associated costs, such as the tour guide driver’s accommodation and meals.
The South Coast, Central Coast and the South Coast are especially popular, as is the Outback. Accommodation and other travel requirements, can be arranged, tailored to your tastes.
