Awesome visit to Hunter Valley! - Sabina was awesome! We did the Hunter & Wollombi Valley private wine tour. Sabina picked us up at our hotel(she was there 10 minutes early) and off we went on the 2 hour trek to wine country. We first visited Tyrrell’s where Scott took great care of us. This was our first glimpse into the relationship Sabina has built with the wineries. They obviously love her and treat her guests exceptionally well. Then we met Pete at Hunter Valley Fat Cow where they do wine and cheese pairings with locally sourced wines. We then went to Petersons winery where we tasted some fabulous wines! We wrapped up our tastings at Savannah Estates. Given that Savannah Peterson is the founder of Savannah Estates and the youngest of the Peterson family to pursue her passion in wine, you would expect the wines to be fabulous … and they were! We also had a sampling of meat pies with our wine that were well worth the additional cost! We wrapped up our wine tasting and headed back to Sydney with one more stop in Wollombi where we stopped and wandered around the historic village! We totally enjoyed our day with Sabina and would enthusiastically recommend her tours!

Relaxing Day Among Hunter Valley Wineries - We had an amazing day on this private wine tour to the Hunter Valley and Wollombi Valley. I went with my parents, who were visiting Sydney for the first time, and it was a wonderful experience to share together. The drive out of the city was beautiful and relaxing, and stopping in Wollombi was a lovely surprise — a charming village with great scenery. The wine tastings were excellent, and we really enjoyed learning about Australian wines and the local wine culture. Everything was explained clearly and in an engaging way, making it enjoyable even for those who are not wine experts. What we appreciated most was how personal and relaxed the experience felt. There was no rushing, plenty of time to enjoy each winery, ask questions, and take in the surroundings.

Absolutely amazing experience! - This wine tour was one of the highlights of my time in Australia. Sabina was incredible – warm, knowledgeable, and truly attentive. She took care of every detail, made the whole day feel effortless, and created such a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere. The wineries we visited were beautiful, the tastings were perfectly paced, and the whole trip felt curated with so much thought. I loved discovering Hunter Valley this way. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Sydney – especially if you appreciate great wine and a guide who genuinely loves what she does. Thank you, Sabina, for an unforgettable day!

If you love wine you'll love this tour! - I booked a trip to Hunter with my partner last minute. We had limited time in Sydney but we wanted to make the most out of it. This tour was exactly what I wanted. Private, away from busy touristy spots. We had a great time! Thank you Beyond Guidebook!

the most enjoyable experience. - I recently joined a Hunter Valley tour with Sabi, and it was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly reliable, professional, and friendly from start to finish. Sabi really knows the best spots in Hunter Valley — from beautiful wineries to scenic viewpoints — and made sure we had the most enjoyable experience. She also made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed, so the whole trip felt smooth and fun. We had such a great time and would definitely recommend Sabi to anyone looking for a memorable Hunter Valley experience!

Away from crowds and tourist traps experience - I had my family visiting Australia and was looking for a good day trip for us. I have been in Hunter a few times before, but this was the first time I experienced boutique places and had this face to face not rushed experience in wineries. My fam enjoyed the trip as well. I recommend to go with Sabina she knows a lot about the wine and the region, she is fun to talk to and flexible to adjust itinerary depending of our taste buds for wines...

A ride to Huntervalley - We wanted to go to Yengo National Park- a bit of hiking- unfortunately it was not possible to get there because of the current road condition. The wine tour was interesting. Sabina was full of energy from start to finish and a very good driver. The drive through the beautiful landscapes we enjoyed very much.
