Wine and food tour - Jimmy was enthusiastic and knowledgeable and really made the effort to engage with everyone. Sushi making and breakfast at the fish market was great followed by some interesting tour guiding on the journey to the Hunter valley. We saw some kangaroos on our arrival and an informative talk on wine at our first stop. Our second winery was the best in my opinion in terms of the actual wine tasted however the last one was notable for its really short measures and limited colour. The visit to the chocolate store was something different and thoroughly enjoyable. Jimmys food was a key differentiator and perfect to keep us going on a long day of imbibing. I would thoroughly recommend this tour.

Fantastic wine and food tour - Had a great time, Jimmy was a great guide and it was an interesting and unique experience. The wine tastings were excellent and really enjoyable, both in quality of wine and the actual experience itself. My partner and I really enjoyed the day, glad we found this one.

Gourmet wine tour with jimmy - The experience was amazing, owner/guide Jimmy was top notch. He prepared all the food fresh to go along with the wine tastings. Food was gourmet and delicious, went so well with the wines. We were beyond full and satisfied with the food and wine. The cost was more than reasonable, the food alone would be worth the cost. Jimmy did a great job selecting wineries and even got to try the local made olives. We will be doing this again next visit.

We chose well - a fabulous tour!! - This is easily one of the best tours we’ve done in 10 years of travelling! We toured 3 small wineries in the Hunter Valley where the wines were paired by our own guide and Chef, Jimmy. The day started with a tour of the Sydney fish market where Jimmy bought produce for some of his creations at the wineries later and gave us a class in sushi rolling. Jimmy’s good humour and enthusiasm were infectious as he shared both his gourmet guidance and local knowledge during the day. We cannot recommend this more highly !!

Great day of food and wine! - Unbelievable experience. Our group of 5 loved every minute of this tour. From our morning at the fish market to afternoon in the vineyards. We were taken to beautiful, small, boutique vineyards which felt very special. The food along the way was delicious and perfectly paired. Highly recommend this tour.
