This is not your wine tour where your going to over drink, this is an amazing wine to educate and brush up on your wine knowledge. When we made the reservation we told Richard we had our 1 year old who would be joining us and he was completely fine with it and accommodated our day with an infant. We... More

Richard provides an outstanding day of wine tasting. The 11-12 hour experience is concentrated in 2 wineries and a great restaurant, but a taste of more than 20 wines. After the introduction to acquaint us with the sensory steps in wine tasting, we were poured multiple flights of 2 to 3 wines to compare side by side. This was a... More

My wife and I spent three days in Sydney Australia prior to enbarking on a 14 day Australia/New Zealand cruise. We are from California and wanted to experience some of Australia's famous Hunter Valley vineyards conveniently located just outside of Sydney. After doing some research on the internet we came across a writeup on Richard Everett's full day, personally guided... More

I myself am a wine educator, and I recently had the pleasure of joining oenologist Richard Everett who was taking a party of Americans to visit the wineries of the Hunter Valley NSW.

I am new to Sydney and was told to visit Hunter Valley. I did a google search for winery tours and came across Richard's page.

Although they have some difficulties understanding english, both my parents can't stop singing praises... More

I recently went on a tour of the Hunter Valley with Richard. After doing some research on the Internet, his background oenology was a real draw. Richard picked me up at my hotel and after a few other quick stops for others on the tour we were headed up toward the Hunter Valley. The tour started with a quick bit... More

I am a lover of fine wines so during our trip to Australia was keen to enhance my knowledge of as many of the wine regions as I could. A trip to the Hunter Valley was therefore an essential part of our time in Sydney. We selected Wine Country Tours from a tourist information booklet. I was attracted by the... More

We were picked up at 7am by Richard in his Wine Country tour mini bus. It was a very comfortable trip, (about 2 hours) and we arrived at Peppers Guest House for morning tea. What a lovely place, we sat out on the porch with lovely linen table cloths and serviettes. The service was excellent and the coffee and dates... More
