Hunter Valley Horse and Carriage Wine Tour

170 Reviews

3 hours

Overview

This is a more relaxed, slightly special way to do the Hunter Valley than jumping between cellar doors by car. You’ll travel by horse and carriage through Pokolbin, taking in the scenery while stopping at three venues for tastings. The tour includes two wine tastings plus one cheese and chocolate tasting, so it suits travellers who want to sample a good mix of local produce in a short visit.

Free cancellation

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Why backpackers love it

If you’re in the Hunter Valley for a short stay, this keeps things simple and covers a few classic tasting experiences in one booking. The carriage ride makes it feel more memorable than a standard cellar door run, and the three-stop format gives you a decent sample of the region without needing a full-day tour. At this price, it leans more treat than budget pick, but it does bundle the transport style and tastings together neatly.

What to expect

The tour runs for around three hours and combines sightseeing with tasting stops. You’ll ride through the Hunter Valley by horse and carriage, then visit three venues along the way. Across those stops, you’ll do two separate wine tastings and one cheese and chocolate tasting. It is designed to pack a fair bit into a half-day without needing to organise transport between venues yourself.
