Top destinations for tours from Newcastle, NSW
Newy Tour Co. is based in Newcastle, NSW, and our tours fan out across some of the most spectacular regions in Australia. From the world class wineries of the Hunter Valley to the dolphin rich waters of Port Stephens, the dramatic coastline of Newcastle, and the wide skies of Country NSW. Every destination on our menu is one we know personally and visit often. Here’s a quick guide to where we’ll take you and why each region is worth the day.
Newcastle, NSW
A coastal city with a creative streak. Surf beaches, ocean baths, working harbour, world class street art, convict history and one of the best coastal walks in the country. Our Discover Newcastle tour is a relaxed half day or full day exploring the highlights with a local who’ll tell you the stories behind what you’re seeing.
Hunter Valley
Australia’s oldest wine region, just 60 minutes inland from Newcastle. Boutique cellar doors, long lunches at vineyard restaurants, regional cheeses, hand distilled gin and a couple of chocolatiers thrown in. Our Hunter Valley wine tour keeps groups small so the day feels personal. Door to door from Newcastle, no driving, no logistics.
Port Stephens
Crystal clear bays, the largest sand dunes in the southern hemisphere, year round dolphin pods and seasonal humpback whale migrations. We run dolphin focused day tours in the warmer months and a winter whale watching adventure when the humpbacks are passing through.
Country NSW
Beyond the coast, the Hunter Region opens out into rolling farmland, historic towns and Australian bush. A side of NSW most visitors never see. Our Country Adventure tour takes small groups through the back roads for an authentic, unhurried day out.
Maitland and the wider Hunter Region
Historic streets, rolling hills, rivers and friendly farmers make Maitland and the surrounding Hunter Region a beautiful change of pace from coast and cellar door. Slow it down, stop for a country bakery, and listen to the people who know the land best.
