Time well spent! - Fabian our driver was unfailingly cheerful and accomodating. The vineyards chosen were smaller and less well known; we were usually the only guests present, so we were able to chat with the hosts at our leisure.

Well organised customised trip for family with young children - We are travelling with 2 young children. Most of the tours to Hunter Valley only allow adults, so we decided to book this private tour.
The whole trip was well planned and Chris, our guide, was very friendly. We all enjoyed the whole day, as we visited 3 vineyards as well as the Hunter Valley zoo for the kids. The trip can be customised which is extremely important to you.

Great day out in The Hunter Valley with Cloud 9 - Recently took a Hunter Valley wine tour with Cloud 9. Greg our guide was awesome, filled with lots of great knowledge of the area and brought humour with his talks.
The wine region itself is beautiful.
Greg took us to wineries that had that special feeling of still being family owned. I highly recommend Cloud 9.
Cheers once again.

A Not-to-Miss Tour - We had a great day in Hunter Valley and definitely developed a greater appreciation for Australian wines. Coming from the California wine country, we already knew a lot about wine--but we surprised how much we DIDN"T know about wines from this area. (Let's just say that the U.S. doesn't always import the best from Australia.) This is a must-do activity if you have time.

What a great day - Greg was the best possible tour guide, his energy and enthusiasm for Hunter Valley and the wine industry in general was absolutely unmatched. I would highly recommend Greg & Cloud 9 Tours to anyone looking to experience Hunter Valley and everything it has to offer.

Highly Recommended Tour of Hunter Valley! - Highly recommended private tour of the Hunter Valley!
My kids wanted to visit an alpaca farm in the Hunter Valley during our recent trip Down Under. I wasn't sure if I could find a private tour agency who could do this for us given that most tours to Hunter Valley are focused around the wineries. But James from Cloud9 was so helpful in putting together this trip to the alpaca farm (Starlight Alpaca Farm) and combined it with a cheese tasting to make the most of our time in the valley.
Our guide for the day, Greg, was so friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. The kids loved him by the end of the day and one week on from our tour, they're still looking for their 'Uncle Greg'. I later learnt from Greg that this was in fact the first time they had taken a group to this particular alpaca farm. So if you want to do something off the beaten track, don't hesitate to check them out.
The vehicle for the day, a 7-seater Mercedes was clean and comfortable. Definitely book these guys if you want to have a memorable day out in the comfort of your own vehicle!

Fabulous Day with Greg! - The Hunter Valley Tour was fabulous! Myself and 20 other girls went on a tour and it was so well organised by James! Our tour guide Greg was a legend and was so good at rounding up the girls (challenging after a few drinks!). All the wineries we visited were excellent and the added distillery and chocolate/cheese stop was super fun!
I’d recommend going on a Cloud 9 tour for sure! We’ve already booked a Blue Mountains trip for next month.

Hens weekend wine tour - A hens weekend wine tour with Greg - he was the best! So friendly and enthusiastic. He made sure we got to each stop on time, without making us feel rushed. And even was our photographer for the day. 10/10! Make sure you ask for Greg when you book!
