    Had an excellent and entertaining day out with John our tour guide and driver for the day. There were 12 people in total on the tour - including our family of 4. A great way to see and experience the surrounding areas of Queenstown. Obviously helps if you love wine ;)

    We really enjoyed this wine tour. The small group made it a very convivial atmosphere. Our guide gave us plenty of background information about the wine area and the wineries. The wine was plentiful and pleasant. Some of it wouldn't be our first choice but it was nice to try some different wines. The cheese board was welcome and plenty to accompany the wine. The wine cave was interesting too. A great way to spend an afternoon with flexible pick ups too.

    It was such a great afternoon -just long enough. All the wines at the 3 wineries were very nice. Location and scenery just beautiful. Donna our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and the history of the wine industry. Loved the cave wine tour.

  • An excellent addition to our itinerary

    Very efficient, friendly and informative tour guide visiting 3 quite different wineries in the Gibbston wine valley. Recommend a high carb lunch beforehand as sampling opportunities plentiful!

  • Kiwi Wine tour

    Great intro to New Zealand wineries. Visited 3 locations with cheese board at the 3rd winery. Our favorite was the wine cave with the plus of excellent terms for shipping wine to the US at reasonable cost. Probably would have like the cheese board at the second winery. Also, ability to choose which wines you want to taste would be a plus. We had 11 folks total but 6-8 would be ideal and more intimate.

  • Amazing wine tour with stunning views

    An amazing tour from start to finish. The wineries, wine, cheese and cave tour were all excellent, but the scenery truly stole the show — nothing lives up to those views around Queenstown. Our guide was great and the whole day was relaxed and well organised. Highly recommend, it was an unforgettable experience.

    We had a fantastic time on the wine tour, made even better by our amazing guide, Paul. He was incredibly friendly, engaging, and truly knew his stuff—sharing great insights without ever making it feel overwhelming. Each of the three wineries was wonderful, with outstanding wines and their own unique character. The whole day was relaxed, fun, and perfectly paced. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Paul as your guide. 🍷
