5.00We had a wonderful day. Craig our driver was very prompt in picking us up from our hotel. He made us feel very welcome as assisted me when entering and departing the bus. His knowledge of the area was very interesting and entertaining. We enjoyed the three wineries we visited and lunch was delicious.
Best wine tour and lunch

5.00Great tour! we went to 4 wineries. The guide Lindsey was super friendly and a true wine expert. I really liked the 5 lunch small dishes (venison, lamb, duck, pork, salmon) paired with wine. So far, the best food I had during my trip in New Zealand.
