Day trips from Mount Colah
Hunter Valley wine tours from Mount Colah
Mount Colah sits right on the upper North Shore, which puts it in a great spot for a Hunter Valley day trip. You are already clear of the city, and a guided wine tour means nobody in your group has to think about driving.
An easy day out from Mount Colah
That is really what makes it work. Everyone is relaxed from the moment they are picked up, and the day stays social all the way through. It is a comfortable, air-conditioned ride up to the Hunter with time to catch up before the first cellar door.
The day typically runs eight hours for a full-day tour, with the first tasting around 10am and you back in time for dinner. You will visit a handful of boutique wineries across Pokolbin and Lovedale, sit down for a proper lunch, and have time to browse, chat with winemakers and pick up a few bottles for home. Half-day options are available too.

Good for groups and special occasions
Wine tours from Mount Colah are popular for birthdays, hens parties, work groups and weekends away with friends and family. Travelling together on the one bus keeps the group together and means no one ends up as the designated driver while everyone else is having a good time. Group sizes from small to around 20 people are catered for, and private tours are available if you would prefer to have the day entirely to yourselves. Weekends book up, so it is worth getting in touch sooner rather than later, especially if you are planning around a birthday or a specific date.
