5.00We had a wonderful time on the wine tour! Our guide was informative, helpful, and even captured some great group photos. We enjoyed a fantastic sampling of wines from Central Otago and even discovered a new favorite—Blanc de Noir! Lunch at the Stoaker Room was both delicious and unique, featuring regional dishes cooked in wine barrels and paired with five wines. The true highlight of the tour was our stop at Te Kano vineyard, with its breathtaking views and exceptional wine. Highly recommend this tour—well worth the money!
One of the all time great wine tours

5.00Had a blast, not sure any other wine tour could top it. The food was scrumptious and the wine selection vast and delicious. Really, so many wines to taste. Lindsey was kind and informative (and funny), and the entire group ended having a truly great time. My favorite wine tour in the world so far!
