5.00Amanda was an excellent tour guide for my husband and myself. We had scheduled 4 wineries, and after two, decided that too much wine in the morning wasn't our vibe and we'd rather see other sights, so Amanda took us to see the bees and honey store, the fig store, and a beautiful view of Napier. She was very knowledgeable of the area and interesting, and made our day much more memorable.
Great experience

5.00Amanda was knowledgeable and attentive to details. She made sure to know the type of wines we prefer and adjusted accordingly. It was well worth the time and money to have a local take you to the various location. Give it a go you won’t be disappointed.
A Good Day for Chardonnay!

5.00Amanda was a very delightful, fun tour guide! Great selection of vineyards,, including larger historical wineries to small quaint ones. A beautiful cheese board was included at one of our stops. Only negative would be that time flew by too quickly. Very informative tour learned so much about Hawke's Bay growing conditions and got a new perspective of Chardonnay and ended up loving it.
Fun, informative and great wine tasting

5.00A wonderful afternoon with a lot of laughs. Can highly recommend this tour. We visited four vineyards and considering our poor host had to put up with traffic delays and road works it was a lot of fun.
Relaxed and pleasant
