5.00Suzanne met us at the ferry. She was knowledge about the island and knew the winery staff…. It was a seamless experience and great wine. Even though our suitcases were full (and I had bought an extra) we still bought some wine. Very small group and very personalized.

5.00Graeme and the team from Kiwi Connect provided an absolutely wonderful experience, touring Waiheke Island and visiting some of the wonderful wineries located on the island. From helping with the process and timing of ferries from Auckland, to scheduling the winery visits, to even providing a lunch reservation at one of our stops, all was managed perfectly. The tour and Graeme’s knowledge of the island and history was excellent, and the three wineries were each unique. The setting was marvelous for each, and the lunch was brilliant. We could not have asked for a more enjoyable day on Waiheke, one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Australia and New Zealand!!

5.00The tour of the islands and visit to three vineyards with Suzanne was delightful! What a spectacular place Waiheke Island is! And our guide was so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. First, we toured around the entire island and learned about the community, history, and beauty of the island. Then we visited three vineyards for wine tastings and lunch. Highly recommend this tour.
Service above and beyond!

Personal wine tasting on Waiheke

5.00This was one of the best experiences we have booked for, sometimes these things can feel very functional and impersonal. This experience was very personal, hugely engaging and was a day to remember. Sue was brilliant, kind, interested and genuine and so proud of Waiheke, we loved it and each winery is fabulous but all in different ways. The views are something else and I cannot highly recommend them enough. I would do again in a heartbeat, thank you Sue. From Chris and Rach (the Wirral)

4.00We had the pleasure of having Susan take us around to our 3 different wineries on Waiheke Island. We thoroughly enjoyed our day. Susan was full of knowledge and very patience with us as we also had our 10 month old son with us. Nothing was ever an issue. Susan gave us great tips at each winery . Every winery suggested on the tour was worth the stop. Would definitely recommend booking this tour.
