Tips for Attending Concerts in Pokolbin

Tips for Attending Concerts in Pokolbin

Accommodation: Hunter Valley Vineyard Concert Tips

Tips for Attending Concerts in Pokolbin: make sure you book your accommodation early because it goes very quickly. Particularly with big name concerts.  Get in quick to book accommodation. Particularly when a big artist comes to the vineyards. Sometimes accommodation gets booked before the tickets become available.  Shania Twain on 8th December 2018 was booked on 9th February 2018.

Check out our two accommodation options in Cessnock NSW:

Venues: Tips for Attending Concerts in Pokolbin

Tips for Attending Concerts in Pokolbin: There are 2 main venues where the majority of concerts are held.  Both these sites have details re: concerts, dates, information, restrictions on food and drink, transport and parking etc.  They are both very strict about not BYO food and alcohol.  You can order hampers and buy meals and drinks on the night.  Read carefully as you don’t want to have things confiscated on the night.  You are there to have a fun night and you don’t want to get off to a bad start.

Hope Estate:

You can go to the following link for a list of all the upcoming concerts.  Go to www.hopeestate.com.au/category/concerts/

Bimbadgen:

This is the place for ‘Day on the Green’ events: www.bimbadgen.com.au/whats-on/

Other Venues Occasionally Include:

Tempus Two, Hunter Valley Gardens and other locations occasionally have concerts.

Transport: Hunter Valley Vineyard Concert Tips

Click on Hope Estate and Bimbadgen sites for address and re: transport and parking.

If you have a designated driver the quickest way is via Allandale Road / Wine Country Drive through Cessnock / Nulkaba to Pokolbin turnoff.  On big event nights the traffic is chaotic.  Local knowledge there is a back way via Mount View Road zig zagging through the wineries.  Bit longer in distance but pretty drive without traffic through the Pokolbin wineries.

More expensive but you can go to www.winecountry.com.au/tours-and-transport-listings  and privately organise a bus shuttle service for you and your group.  Alternatively ring for taxi: Cessnock Radio Cabs on (02) 49901111. The have some maxi taxis for groups.  Get in early with these options.

Rover Motor Coaches:

Tips for Attending Concerts in Pokolbin: best option as they specialise in concert events. They transport you from accommodation to concert and return at the end of the night.  Great option if drinking alcohol and cheaper than taxi or private shuttle service.  Just go the following web site, click on event, scroll down and select option that is closest to your accommodation with best time and book online: https://www.rovercoaches.com.au/site/index.cfm?display=269976.  You can book concert ticket and transport ticket combo online as well.  Transport for night is from $20 per person upwards.  Hampers can be added to checkout for $119 for two persons.

Aussies Overseas Travel Tips

Aussies Overseas Travel Tips

Smart Traveller

This would be the most important Aussies Overseas Travel Tips i.e. Smart Traveller.

https://smartraveller.gov.au.  Make sure you register with the Australian Government web site for overseas travel. You may not think that the Australian Government cares. They will help with unforeseen circumstances, lost passports, terrorist acts and natural disasters etc. Plus lots of helpful tips re: safety, culture, travel alerts and laws of the country etc. Find the nearest Australian embassy and contact details within the country you are travelling.

Money: Tips for Aussies Overseas

Most countries have ATMs except in 3rd world countries in remote areas.  Be aware there maybe charges taking money from ATMS so it pays to get large amount and not small amounts.  Using VISA and MasterCard overseas attracts foreign transactions fees.  Handy to have currency exchange app to get an idea of exchange rate.  There are a large range of Traveller Cards on the market. I highly recommend getting a VISA DEBIT card from ING.com.au. (don’t receive any kickbacks). There are conditions of a minimum of $1,000 per month going into account and minimum of 5 transactions. If you can do this ING will waive all foreign transaction fees and Overseas and Australian ATM Fees.

Google Search and Maps

Google is your best friend when overseas.  If there is somewhere you want to go you get information. You can then either click on web site or DIRECTIONS. Directions will take you to Google Maps taking you from current location to destination.  It has walking, car, train and bus.  Even has timetable and estimated cost. Fantastic. Aussies Overseas Travel Tips: use Google search and maps.

Google Translate and Gestures

Google Translate from English to other language and back again.  You have the option to either type or use microphone. It got me out of trouble lots of times when someone could not speak English and I could not speak their language. Just keep in mind it is not perfect. Few funny situations when speaking to someone in Taiwan it came out ‘congenital’ in English. They got embarrassed but it is funny and you have to laugh. Play charades and point when all else fails. Make mooing sounds and gestures milking cow if you want milk. Have to laugh.

Chillout and Ask A Local: Aussies Overseas Travel Tips

Us Aussie blokes tend to be proud and not ask for help and can waste hours or days when we could have asked a local: directions to somewhere or finding a location or something  etc. Aussies Overseas Travel Tips: don’t be proud chillout and ask a local.

7 Eleven and FamilyMart

These stores can be a Godsend when overseas. Definite Tips for Aussies Overseas. We have always found someone that could speak English or point us in right direction. They have ATMS and other travel options within store plus convenience store for food particularly if you don’t want to try food from local shops and markets.

Respect Culture: Aussies Overseas Travel Tips

Locals expect that tourists won’t fully know or understand their cultures. If you go to the effort of knowing the culture the locals will appreciate and respect you more. For example in Taiwan we took off shoes and left outside and only wore indoor shoes. I got myself into trouble throwing in rubbish stinky tofu and chicken legs. When I realised I apologised. Aussies Overseas Travel Tips: respect culture.

Tips to Save Money on Accommodation

Tips to Save Money on Accommodation

Tips to Save Money on Accommodation (summary):

  1. #BookDirect and Save
  2. Use Trivago as tool to find suitable accommodation at best price
  3. Type in Google Search Engine: <Accommodation Name> official website
  4. Check out Google My Business
  5. Compare prices to Trivago
  6. Type in Google Search Engine: <Accommodation Name> official website
  7. Phone or email accommodation directly and ask for price
  8. #BookDirect and Save

#BookDirect & Save

Forty plus years ago there was no internet. There were several ways to book accommodation.

1. You would drive until you got to a place where you wanted to stop and go to reception. Vacancy and No Vacancy signs.

2. Go to Road Side Assistance business like NRMA or RACQ and get caravan or accommodation books with phone numbers

3. Local White and Yellow Pages

4. Go to Post Office to get White and Yellow Pages out of the area and ring Real Estates to post out holiday accommodation booklets with tariffs

How things have changed? But have they changed for the better? What is the best way to save on accommodation in today’s modern online world?

3 Main Players in Accommodation Booking

1. Airbnb

2. Priceline – they own Booking.com

3. Expedia Group – own lots of online booking sites. They bought out Aussie sites including Stayz and Wotif

 

Trivago: How to Save Money on Accommodation

Great as a tool but would not book accommodation through Trivago. I will tell you the reason why? Guess who owns Trivago? Expedia Group. Most of advertised accommodation on Trivago is owned by Expedia Group except Booking dot com. So one way or the other Expedia Group make money through many of their own companies or other companies advertising. At one point they advertised they would find best deal. But this is false advertising and recently litigation was taken against Trivago.

Once you have found suitable accommodation on Trivago.  Then proceed to Google Search Engine.

 

Google Search Engine: Tips to Save Money on Accommodation

Firstly type in Google Search Engine: <Accommodation Name> official website. Just like in Trivago go to Book Now (or similar). Type in dates and no. guests etc. Compare with Trivago and see if cheaper. Don’t worry you won’t be charged until you provide card details. You are just looking. More often than not it is cheaper because there are no booking fees as online accommodation services charge owner and guest fees.

Secondly type in Google Search Engine: <Accommodation Name> phone number. Phone up accommodation or email them directly. You are armed with the information from Trivago and their official website. Provide them with same dates and no. guests and see what their tariff is? More than likely it will be cheaper than any offer from Trivago and maybe even their web site. If there is a better deal elsewhere tell them. Say to them we can both save on fees. Ask for better deal.

 

Google My Business: Tips to Save Money on Accommodation

When using Google Search Engine to look for accommodation as above. The really good accommodation services would have registered their accommodation on Google My Business and this will appear to right of the Google Searches. It should have their website address and contact phone number along with Google Maps location. Maybe an email address. This is a great tip to save money on accommodation.

 

How to save money on accommodation

#BookDirect & Save: Tips to Save Money on Accommodation

You can go with the crowd and go to your usual favourite accommodation online booking site as it is quick and easy. But you won’t save money for 2 reasons. You as guest could be charged a fee and owner is charged a fee so they pass that onto you as booker to cover their fees by increasing their tariff. Owners have to pay from 3% to 15% commissions or more plus GST. Plus if you have seen the Dick Smith video the commissions go overseas and out of Australia!

For example: In 2019 I stayed at a hotel in the Hunter Valley NSW for 4 nights. If I had booked online it would have cost me to $260.00 through Booking dot com. By going directly to the hotel and not even asking for discount it cost me $200.00. SAVED $60.00. Saved 30%. That easy!

If you have previously stayed at accommodation and you want to stay there again go back to previous email to contact them directly. This is a great tip to save money on accommodation.

Book Direct through Website, In Person, Mobile or Email

How to Save Money on Accommodation? By booking direct on website, rocking up in person at accommodation, phoning or emailing accommodation. You will save in most cases (no guarantees)! You can try and haggle. Maybe even get a free breakfast thrown in. Deal direct with the accommodation after having done your research with TrivagoGoogle Search Engine and Google My Business. You will save more often than not.

This applies for booking either in Australia or overseas. If going overseas maybe book 1-2 days online then deal directly with accommodation once there in that country. The cost of making an overseas phone call will be worth it with the savings you make by #BookDirect.

Aussie Chillout Accommodation Gift Vouchers

Aussie Chillout Accommodation Gift Vouchers

I am not ashamed to admit that I am a baby boomer (aged 60) and how times have changed with the giving of gifts at Christmas. Aussie Accommodation Gift Vouchers make an ideal gift. You are giving the gift of an experience. Ideal gift for family and friends. Special occasions, such as birthdays, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and Christmas. Any other occasion that you can think of.

Purchase Aussie Chillout Accommodation Gift Vouchers:

Socks, Jocks and Hankies:

Unquestionably when I was a kid the go to present was socks, jocks (underwear) and hankies (handkerchiefs).  Obviously when you received them you politely smiled and said thank you. Without doubt inside you were thinking boring.

What gift to buy?

If you are like me, you hate shopping and making decisions as to what to buy for each person. Never knowing whether the person receiving the gift will like the gift, use the gift, re-gift the gift, throw the gift away or take the gift back to the store of purchase for cash.

Gift Cards:

Then gift cards came around. Easy peasy. No thought involved hence impersonal. If the gift card went missing it was your loss or if you placed in your wallet / purse for over a year they expired. Loser. That is where an Aussie Accommodation Gift Vouchers are a great gift.

Experience:

The GOTO present for Christmas now is to buy an EXPERIENCE! Recently my son and partner gifted us with an experience: Gold Coast Buffet Lunch Sightseeing Cruise – Surfers Paradise for myself and wife. We had a great time with food, sightseeing and meeting other folk relaxing and enjoying themselves just like us. Will I remember the gift? YES. Will I remember who gave the gift? YES.

So why not buy an experience for the ones you love: Aussie Accommodation Gift Vouchers? But in reality you are buying for yourself and giving your partner a hint that you want a holiday.
