Your host is Richard Everett, the only Oenologist (or winemaker) conducting a small group or private wine tour of the Hunter Valley Wine Country. His guests get a unique behind the scenes insight into how the best wines of the Hunter Valley are made, with private guided tastings of the top wines at the best & most interesting of the 140+ wineries. Richard conducts the wine tastings, not the sales staff at the wineries, so you are spared the heavy sales pitch of their commercial wines & get to experience many wines not offered to the general public. Morning tea is at the famous Peppers Guesthouse & lunch is at the award winning Muse Cafe. Tours are available ex Sydney or from within the Hunter Valley.

Taste Tours is a social enterprise and charity which offers cultural food tours in the diverse suburbs and town centres of Sydney, as well as in the CBD. All tours are led by local guides, who share their secrets on the best places to eat and shop for authentic dishes and ingredients. Every tour includes tastings in-stores, cafes and restaurants, more than enough for lunch. We show you the sights and tell you all the local stories. All our profits are re-invested into tour guide training and employment for under or unemployed people to support them into the career path of their choice. Trainees are newly arrived migrants or refugees, or young people.

We are Sydney's only specialist craft beer and microbrewery tour operator. We are all about getting you closer to your beer and those who brew for you. Our philosophy is simple - collaboration. We love bringing people together. We bring together people wanting to taste and experience the craftsmanship of our local producers. In doing so, we are supporting the passions and dreams of those who are bringing to market some of the finest beer available. We want to bring people closer to the toil and strife of what it takes to produce fine craft beer. To us, it's more than the art and science of brewing or the mechanics of a microbrewery, it's the stories, the legends, the scars of effort and devotion to doing something different. It's about connecting people who are passionate about what they consume with those who are equally as passionate about what they produce. We promise that you will have a great day out, meet some interesting people and taste some amazing locally produced beers along the way. We will get you to here and there and home again, far richer in knowing that little bit more of the micro-miracles happening around us. What could be better than that?

Drink in history as you tread in the footsteps of the convicts, larrikin gangs & locals of the past on our pub walks of The Rocks, Balmain and more.

Tours run throughout the week and include a choice of craft beer, wine or soft drink at each pub.
