5.00Simon our driver met us at the ship and gave a well informed trip. Three wineries and a great time had with food (purchased separately) and wines. Taken back to the ship on plenty time so mo worries about being late.

5.00The Wellington half day wine tour was a very enjoyable and informational experience. This was due to our phenomenal tour guide Simon! His knowledge of the wines produced in this region of New Zealand and the history of the people who inhabit it were very educational. I recommend this tour to anyone who wants to do more than just sip wine! Thank you Simon for a most memorable time. CHEERS!!!

5.00We were only 6 and that was just perfect. Simon was the best guide and driver. 2 out of the 3 vineyards was great, the last one a bit to commercial since you can buy their vine at the local supermarket
The tour was well planned...

5.00The tour was well planned and Simon, our host, was very knowledgeable. It’s a great to meet people from different parts of the world who share the same, if not similar, interest in wine.

5.00We had an enjoyable day with 9 other passengers and our guide, Michael. The three wineries we visited were all quite different but our sommeliers were all very knowledgeable. Delicious lunch at Moy Hall.
