This half-day Hunter Valley tour is a straightforward way to fit in cellar doors, local produce and a light lunch without giving up your whole day. You’ll visit parts of Pokolbin and Lovedale for wine tastings, then stop at a working boutique vineyard for a locally sourced lunch among the vines. The trip also includes samples at a local distillery outlet, plus time at the region’s well-known Smelly Deli and nearby cheese and chocolate shops. Accommodation return transfers are included, which makes the day easier to manage if you do not want to drive.

The tour runs for around 4.5 hours and focuses on a few of the Hunter’s classic tasting experiences in one short outing. Expect wine tastings across the Hunter Valley, including Pokolbin and Lovedale, with vineyard views along the way. Midway through the trip, you’ll have a light lunch at a working boutique vineyard.
