We really enjoyed the variety of the three very different vineyards and their wines that we sampled. The tour guide was knowledgeable and ensured we were at our venues on time.
A Great Experience

We had a lovely day visiting 4 wineries with Kirsty and some lovely fellow travelers. Kirsty was one of the most informative and positive guides we’ve ever had on a wine tour. She was very friendly, knowledgeable, and talkative throughout our tour. The great thing about this tour is that you’re not in the van for too long between wineries (15 minutes tops), and Kirsty is dropping knowledge the whole time. 4 wineries is a lot in 5 hours, so I think it would make sense to scale back to 3 and give more time for each, but all were interesting in their own way. The included pizza at Shed 530 was amazing and Kirsty did a great job ordering the best pies for us.
A great wine tour

This was a second wine tour on our holiday and was different to our Wiaheke wine tour but was still excellent. Firstly, it was good to chat and meet other people, there were 14 people on our tour and three wineries in we became very chatty and it was great fun. We did three wineries and one brewery and had a fabulous lunch at the brewery. All wineries were great but Mission was my favourite and we ended up buying three wines there! Our guide was excellent and overall it was a great experience and value for money… PS. We tasted some great wines!
Outstanding Tour

Very friendly guide who knew the area, Hawkes Bay wine and New Zealand's place in the world of wine exceptionally well. We visited three excellent vineyards, the wine experts at each were friendly and had in depth knowledge of their respective winery.

This was a great experience at some of the local wineries. Our driver was kind, knowledgeable, and kept us on pace to be sure we had adequate time at each stop. Even though we were unable to go to one of the wineries, they told us ahead of time and let us know the alternative stop would be a brewery instead. It actually was a nice break from the wine, and the food and service was fantastic!

The tour guide, Kirsty, was lovely and very informative about the history of the region. The winery representativea were very knowledgeable about the wine making. It was an excellent selection of wine and a great way to spend a day in Napier. Unfortunately the day we went a lot of wineries that offer food were closed and so the tour company took us to a craft brewery in substitution of one winery, but the beer was very good. Would recommend.
Fantastic wine tour operator, highly recommend.
