In each winery, people explained us about wines and grapes, and that was informative and interesting. It was good help to understand hunter valley. The bus driver was very kind and friendly that he offered us to take photos and let us see wild kangaroos on the way back. Thanks to him, we have lots of good memories of this tour.”
