Our expertly guided day tour takes you from the vibrant city of Newcastle to charming heritage towns, breathtaking natural wonders, and local experiences that truly showcase the beauty of rural Australia. This tour is designed to be both relaxing and educational, with our knowledgeable guides providing fascinating insights into the land, history, and culture along the way.

What to expect:

As you wander through their picturesque streets, your expert guide will reveal fascinating stories that bring the past to life, showcasing how these towns played a pivotal role in shaping Australia’s early history. In Morpeth, indulge in local delights like honey and fudge, and learn about its connection to the iconic Arnotts Biscuits brand. Then, in Dungog, a town with a close-knit community of just 2,169 residents, we’ll treat you to a refreshing craft beer along the lively main street, offering a true taste of local flavor and hospitality. Each stop promises a rich, immersive experience that connects you with the heart of Australia’s past.

  • Farm Tour with Educational Insights: Experience life on a third-generation family cattle farm and learn about sustainable farming practices. The farm owner, Tom, will take you through the daily workings of the farm, giving you a behind-the-scenes look at local agriculture.

  • Farm-Fresh BBQ Lunch: Savor a delicious, freshly-prepared Aussie BBQ, featuring locally-sourced ingredients. Our team will prepare a tasty sausage sizzle while you enjoy the open countryside. Let us know about any dietary restrictions, and we’ll ensure that everyone can enjoy this flavorful, farm-to-table meal.

  • Comfortable Round-Trip Transport: Sit back, relax, and let us take care of the journey.
