Gavin, our guide, was great! Tour left promptly. We stopped at the chocolate factory first and avoided the crowds. The wineries were very good.

We loved this small group tour of 4 wineries in the Marlborough area. The wineries were all different and our guide James never made us feel rushed. We found it informative and we met a great group of people from our ship! Many new friends were made

Overall, a good experience, but a few things stopped it being 5/5. The group was difficult (a number of people didn't enjoy wine, on a wine tour??), and while this obviously isn't the fault of the guide, it seemed to sap their confidence a little bit, to the detriment of the rest of us who were really interested. The audio equipment in the van wasn't working properly, so the guided commentary was often inaudible. This wasn't the fault of the guide, but more of a company maintenance issue. The places we visited were generally pretty good, but at a couple of them the tastings were extremely brief, and we felt a bit like cattle. We enjoy wine tours because we get to learn about the region, the wines made, the vineyards themselves, and the history.
Awesome experience

We loved that this was a “small group” tour. We were a group of 10 people in a small van . We visited 4 wineries. Our tour guide Gavin did a great job ! I highly recommend this tour. The vineyards are all beautiful!
