Fixed fare quoted upfront · Nothing added on the day
The Hunter is one of the longer journeys we do out of Sydney, and it is arranged rather than sold at a standing rate. Give us the date and the shape of the day and we will confirm a fixed fare in writing.
Wine-region days are the obvious reason to have a chauffeur rather than drive: the whole point of the trip is incompatible with being the designated driver. Where a group wants the car to stay with them across several stops, we arrange it that way rather than as separate trips.
One-way transfers are equally common — out for a weekend, back afterwards, or connecting either leg with Sydney Airport. Groups are frequent here, so the larger classes usually make more sense than a sedan.
The area
Pokolbin, Lovedale and the Cessnock vineyards.
The wine country sits around Cessnock, with most cellar doors in Pokolbin and the surrounding districts of Lovedale, Rothbury and Broke. They are spread out — a few minutes' drive between one and the next, and not walkable in any useful sense.
That spread is the practical case for a chauffeur here, quite apart from the tasting: a day in the Hunter is a day of short drives between stops.
Why this service
What every booking includes.
- Nobody in the group has to be the designated driver
- The car stays with you across stops where arranged
- A fixed fare rather than a meter on a long day
- Larger classes sized for a group and its day
How it works
Two hours north, and arranged in advance.
The Hunter is one of the longer journeys we do out of Sydney — roughly two hours each way up the M1 — so it is arranged rather than sold at a standing rate. Give us the date and the shape of the day and we confirm a fixed fare in writing.
Where a group wants the car to stay with them across the stops, that is arranged as part of the booking rather than charged as a series of separate trips.

Questions
Hunter Valley questions.
How far is the Hunter Valley from Sydney?
The vineyard area around Pokolbin and Cessnock is roughly 160 kilometres north of Sydney, generally about two hours by road.
Can you arrange a full day rather than a transfer?
Yes, by arrangement. A private day means the car stays with you, which for a wine region is the practical difference between a trip and a logistics exercise.
Do you collect from Sydney Airport?
Yes — a direct transfer from the airport to the Hunter avoids an overnight in Sydney if your schedule is tight.
Is one vehicle enough for a group?
A van seats up to twelve. For a wine weekend that is usually one vehicle rather than three, and it keeps the group together.
Can we stop on the way?
Yes. Tell us when you book — stops are part of the quoted journey rather than something negotiated on the day.
