Highlights
This tour has been specially crafted and perfected from 10+ years of Two Fat Blokes guest feedback. Visit some of the Hunter Valleys best wineries to sample some delicious wines. We don’t stick to a formula and we’re constantly doing research. As long as we get great feedback from our guests, you might visit boutique, new, large, small, old, and/or unique wineries. We want you to enjoy the best of the Hunter Valley, with unique wine encounters that are not available to your average walk-in wine-taster. We’re not about just taking you to a cheese or chocolate tasting, we think you deserve more. On top of cheese/chocolate and wine pairing exercises, we’ve worked with some of the Hunters best wineries to craft a range of mystery experiences especially for our guests. These are designed to build your wine knowledge while also getting you involved with the process and allowing you to learn what makes Hunter Valley wine unique.

3Not as good as it used to be
Sadly this experience left us unsatisfied on this occasion. I have done this tour before and really enjoyed it however this time it felt like the experience was very different with more low cost options than previously. The tastings were not personalized nor particularly informative, most places they poured the wine and walked away. The chocolate and wine tasting had been downgraded to what felt like a cheaper option and the lunch we received was a grazing box only, no proper food. Overall disappointing and will not be recommending this experience.

Two Fat Blokes is always a fantastic experience. Lyndell was a fantastic driver/guide. The wineries were great. We always recommend Two Fat Blokes tours to our friends and family.

5Throughly enjoyable fun day.
Great day's tastings. 3 very friendly wineries and lunch at Two Fat Blokes place. Bonus of a cider and beer tasting late afternoon. Genial host and charcuterie lunch with more tastings and they offer great delicacies for sale too. We met lovely other people also on the tour. Loved the pairings of wines with cheeses and chocolates. Throughly enjoyable. Great value for money.
5Fun day all day!
We all had a fabulous day. The selection of wineries was excellent. The guide was friendly and thoughtful always checking our comfort on the bus . She was happy and added to our fun day.
1Waste of time and money
Awful! This was our first time in the Hunter Valley. This tour did not meet our expectations of a gourmet wine tour of the Hunter. The wineries were average, most of the folks on our tour were not impressed. (only 3-4 bottles were purchased out of 6 hours of tasting) The wines tasted the same. The "gourmet lunch" was nothing gourmet - it was a packed lunch with 4 slices of meat, bits of cheese, a few nuts, crackers, one slice of bread and an orange. Followed by more cheese and crackers for average wine paring at Two Fat Blokes. To finish the day at a cider place was not welcome, it was a poor ending to a mediocre day; especially since there wasn't any food available. Overall, a waste of time and money.

About Hunter Valley
The Hunter Valley is a New South Wales wine region of vineyards, horse studs and low ranges, a couple of hours' drive north of Sydney.
The valley follows the Hunter River inland from Newcastle, with the main wine district around Pokolbin and the town of Cessnock at its gateway. Vines have grown here since the 1820s, which makes it one of Australia's oldest wine regions, and semillon whites and shiraz reds are its best-known bottles. Many cellar doors sit among gum trees and lawns, with long views across the rows.
