About iHop Hunter Valley and What We Do | Hop-On Hop-Off | Guided Tours | On Demand
iHop Hunter Valley was founded in 2015 by Husband and Wife Team (Tim & Kristy). Being lovers of great quality wine and produce they fell in love with the region and became frequent visitors over the next 10 years. Over this time they found there were limited transport options with getting around that was both affordable and flexible. It was from there that Australia’s first wine region Hop-On Hop-Off Bus Service was introduced to the Hunter Valley, shortly followed with a range of fully guided day and night tours that focus on food and drink experiences designed to showcase the best the Hunter Valley Region has to offer.

The iHop is a great way to get around the Hunter Valley without having to drive. It allows you to explore different places at your own pace. The pick up and drop off from your accommodation is very convenient, and an added bonus is that all your purchases throughout the day is kept onboard the bus, no need to cart everything around with you. There’s even an esky for any cheese / chocolates. Very friendly service with great recommendations! We had a very enjoyable day and would certainly recommend this!

We had an awesome day on the ‘central Pokolbin’ route with Tim as our driver and guide. What a fantastic service!! We got to enjoy a bunch of wineries and the timetable of the ihop service works so well. Tim was also really knowledgeable and helpful to suggest some great options. He also took care of our purchases on each stop and had a cold esky on board for the choccies!! Tim – thanks for the best day. We wouldn’t tour the Hunter any other way from now on! ‘Team Bec’
