5.0This wine tour is a must! Nick was a great tour guide and wine connoisseur. We went to 3 boutique wineries and had a wonderful lunch. Small group was also a plus!!

5.0This was a relaxed tour visiting three of Waiheke Island’s wineries with some very nice (predominantly red and rose) wines and a delicious lunch. Our driver and guide, Michael was friendly and informative and we really appreciated his laidback Kiwi style. We are Aucklanders while the rest of the group were from overseas and they all really enjoyed the tour. I highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Auckland.
Do not miss this tour!

5.0Outstanding. Do not go to Auckland and NOT do this tour. Auckland is just another big city but Waiheke Island is very special and this tour gives a perfect overview in a day.

5.0First time traveling to New Zealand and looking for some fun excursions - this tour did not disappoint! Definitely a highlight of our trip. We loved getting to see various wineries, all with their own unique style. Craig our tour guide was so great - very knowledgeable, charismatic, and made the tour that much more enjoyable!
