Wonderful half day scenic & wine tour on the beautiful Waiheke Island. Steve was a great guide and very knowledgeable of the wineries, the Island and NZ. The platter Lunch with a glass of wine at Stonyridge winery was great. Definitely recommend this tour.

Fiona was thr BEST guide. We started promotly on time and quickly made our way to the first location. Fiona was very knowledgeable and proud of the island so we learned alot along the way. The second stop has wonderful food and scenery. The final stop had great views and Bob who had all the jokes and background about winemaking on the island. Although the second stop is a nice long period of time, the first and third stops were quick stops. Would have been nice to spending alittle more time and possibly a glass of your favorite from the tasting. But this is a very small piece of scheduling feedback. Overall we loved the tour!

Simon was awesome! The wine tasting was very good. Yet, it could have been much better if the Batch Winery provided better customer service and a more comfortable/suitable tasting environment.
