Hunter Valley Wine Tour

Hi there! My name is James a true born and bred Sydney local from the beautiful Northern Beaches area of the city. Spending time with me around Sydney will be like meeting a new friend and my guiding style is always super laid back in true Aussie style. Your tour will also be full of stories of what makes Sydney such a fantastic place to live. You will also come to understand how Sydney got to be the super sexy world city it is today! I 'm always making sure I 'm having fun on tour and love to laugh but most of all I have a genuine passion for meeting people and making sure they are having the best time possible. I have guided in Sydney for the last 13 years looking after all types of guests from some of the worlds wealthiest individuals, multinational CEOs, couples, families, friend and student groups. What I have learned over this time is that everybody has a different idea of what makes the perfect tour, but the day always needs to be 100% focused on you, the traveller. I love being flexible with my guests at all times so you get the most out of the day based on your interests and preferences. Sydney is full of many must see highlights for any first time visitor and I will make sure you experience these in the best way possible. However if you are looking for some local secrets across nature, food, drinks and culture, then I will make it happen for you. I'm also just as comfortable sharing the uniqueness of Australian flora and fauna on a stunning walk in the Blue Mountains National Park 90 minutes west of Sydney. If food and wine is more your thing, then let's head north out of Sydney where I can introduce you to my friends who will share their passion for the wines of the Hunter Valley during your own private tasting. Having visited all but a handful of the 150 wineries in the region, I have my favourite boutique wineries to show you far from the large commercial vineyards many tourists only experience. I have been lucky enough to travel to over 50 countries around the globe. My experiences from 2USD a night mosquito invested accommodation (while chasing waves with school mates on the islands of Indonesia in the early 2000s) to more recently, enjoying the luxury side of travel where my response to my wife is always the same. . . " yes honey it's amazing but please don't tell me the price we paid for it!" This love and experience of travelling really helps me understand what travellers like yourself are after when visiting Sydney. Thanks for your time! I would love to hear from you so we can starting planning some amazing adventures in Sydney for you and those you are travelling with!
