Our tour guide Kristy was amazing, as were all the wineries she took us to! We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the hunter, whether it’s their first time or they have been here before. It was our first time and we got to try multiple wines and cheeses etc across 3 different gorgeous wineries, went to a beautiful look out point and seen lots of kangaroos on the journey between each winery. We loved it and met some great people on our tour bus too! Would highly highly recommend IHop and we will definitely be using them again when we return to the hunter!The best way to go around the wineries.

The best way to go around the wineries. Felicity was our driver for the day and she was absolutely amazing. She was always on time, well organised and we also had great conversations. She also took care of all the purchases we made throughout the day and gave us cold water bottles to stay hydrated. Both my girlfriend and I loved our time with iHop and will definitely book with them again next time we’ll be around. Thank you guys.We had the best day visiting wineries in the Hunter Valley. The tastings were fabulous, and we especially enjoyed the blindfold tasting with amazing food platters. Pickup and drop off to our hotel was great. We would definitely recommend this tour.
