5.00I wasn’t sure we’d like this tour but our tour guide ( Sherri) was so good. She took us to some beautiful places showing the shoreline and the country side. We had a great linch( not included but so good) and a wine tasting and chocolate try tour. It was one of our favorite tours in New Zealand.
A delightful tour, with a genuinely lovely person

5.00I can’t recommend this independent run tour of New Zealand highly enough. From start to finish, the communication was outstanding — clear, friendly, and reassuring at every step, which made the whole experience completely stress-free. Our guide was an absolute delight: warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about showcasing New Zealand’s incredible scenery and produce. She made everyone feel welcome and supported, regardless of pace and created such a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere. The tour did run a little over time which was not a bother to the guide — it never felt rushed, and the extra time only added to the experience. It was clear that the focus was on enjoyment, connection, and making sure everyone had a memorable run rather than sticking rigidly to the clock. If you’re looking for a well-organised, personal, and truly special way to explore Picton & Blenheim, this tour is a must. An unforgettable experience led by a genuinely lovely person. Thank you Sherri

5.00Sherri was a great guide and very knowledgeable about Picton and surrounding areas. She shared with us beautiful coastal areas, caves, a delicious chocolate factory Makana and Jackson winery where we had a great tasting. We when had lunch at a lovely cafe which had a lovely pond in the back and a short walk to amazing views of the Blenheim vineyards . We ended our trip with a ride through havelock to a lovely rose garden with a flowing stream . I would definitely recommend kiwi holiday tour with Sherri. She’s great and goes above and beyond.

5.00Sherri provided an excellent tour of the Picton and Blenheim area. The Makana Chocolate factory and Wither Hills winery were interesting and very enjoyable. Lunch at the Vines Village with Sherri was nice and relaxing, and the stop at Rarangi Beach made for some great photos. Take this tour - you'll love it.
