Owner/operator Pippa Travers is fully licensed, accredited and insured, as well as a proud local who enjoys nothing more than to show off the Hunter Valley and it's wines! After 20 years teaching 60 children under five, she decided on a career change - winemaker! After completing a Wine Production course on make wine, Pippa soon discovered that as her age and to make the wine she wanted to make, she needed more money and muscles. Saying all that, she has worked in many cellar doors, knows and loves her wine, and therefore, knows where to find them! Let our tours introduce the Hunter Valley Wine Country's best wine tasting experiences, with pick ups at various Hunter Valley Locations. Each group on board is given time at each cellar door to gain a complete experience and flavour of the cellar door/vineyard/winery. Pippa's able to regale history, quirky stories and give informative commentary and knowledge about wines, vines and the Valley... All delivered with an innate sense of humour! Specialise in the smaller more BOUTIQUE wineries. Come on board and let me show you the secrets of the Hunter.
