It was like doing wine tastings with a stand up comic who just happened to very knowledgeable about wine. It was a memorable afternoon spent with a fantastic group of people. Our guide Julz deserves a massive raise! 😉

Wine, cheese and good company. Perfect Hunter Valley experience.
Noreen_G, Dec 2024
Easy pick-up from our resort in a comfortable air-con vehicle. Each of the 3 vineyards had their own atmosphere and particular style of delivering their wines and story. We enjoyed the half day tour and then continued onto 2 more vineyards of our own choosing. Geoff our driver was very friendly, making the tour most enjoyable.
So good, so funny!

My partner and I booked a wine tour with Two Fat Blokes on recommendation from some friends and had the best afternoon with Glen and our group! We're not cheese/ wine connoisseurs but have to say the cheese and wine pairing was a highlight. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about how different cheeses change the flavour of wine. Would highly recommend Two Fat Blokes to anyone visiting the Hunter
Enjoyable day

Two fat blokes winery the best, would have been nice to have one of the two fat blokes during tasting. Very friendly & informative driver Julie. I would give the second winery a total miss. Very little contact with staff, not welcoming/sterile environment, did not enjoy any of the wines.
Perfect day out and great value.

Greg was a great guide and the tour itself was well organised. We had a full bus load which made it fun and getting to meet people from other parts of the world always interesting. The best part was Two Fat Blokes with the matching cheese and wine tasting. We went back the next day to buy a bag load for home.

Two fat blokes need to improve their communication avenues including this platform information.
We also sat in a bus with no seat belts
The best wine tour!

This was such an awesome little wine tour, our group of 6 thoroughly enjoyed it! Our tour host Julie was an absolute gem who made the tour as fun and enjoyable as it was. She kindly picked us up from our airbnb and took photos for us whenever we asked. Two fat blokes was definitely the highlight, yummy cheese and and wine 😊
Absolutely fantastic 😊

He truly went above and beyond and gave us the absolute best experience so are very grateful. The wines and vineyards were fabulous and the guides at each venue were amazing, very passionate and knowledgeable. 10/10 experience and would recommend to anyone.

Our tour guide was amazing. We had the best days crack. Laughed from start to finish. Would definitely recommend.
A great experience for those new to wine
Robin_F, Mar 2024
A good experience for those new to wine, but if you are already knowledgeable you will not learn much. The driver/guide, while charming, was not a wine guy. He did not introduce himself, or the group to each other, and didn’t really speak to us until the second stop. Of the three stops, one was at the Two Blokes winery, which was actually the best one!
10/10

Great experience - 10/10, if it’s your first time in the Hunter (or anytime) please do this tour. Julz was unreal. Both my partner and I had a fantastic time.
Fun experience
Rachel_R, Feb 2024
Best part of the tour was at two fat blokes. Julz our tour guide was amazing.
The last winery on the tour wasn’t good at all. Wouldn’t go back to first creek winery.
Great tour
