A full day to explore the wineries, art and gourmet delights that is the Hunter Valley. We suggest planning ahead which wineries you may like to visit – you will see they are in close proximity. Discover local artisans and beautiful gardens. Tonight dine in one of the many gourmet restaurants in the area.
DAY 04: Hunter Valley to Port Stephens (100 km)
Leave the Hunter Valley and travel south to Port Stephens. Known as the
Blue Water Wonderland, Port Stephens is a natural bay 2 1/2 times the size of Sydney Harbour and almost enclosed by two dormant volcanic headlands. There is fabulous seafood and over 26 golden sandy beaches to explore. Take an afternoon cruise with the dolphins (at own expense) or book ahead for a cruise tomorrow morning.
DAY 05: Port Stephens to Sydney (220 km)
Depart Port Stephens and head south, but before reaching the Pacific Highway detour to Newcastle and past Lake Macquarie. Continue along the coast through The Entrance and Gosford, before joining the Pacific Highway as you travel into the city and over the majestic Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Your car is booked until tomorrow and should be dropped off at the city or airport, by the same time as it was picked up on Day 1, to avoid any additional charges.
