Had the absolute best time with Justine and Robyn on this fantastic tour of Waiheke Island. Walking through the bush was a great way to explore this gorgeous island and its vineyards. We visited a couple of beautiful and renowned vineyards and even made an extra stop at a lovely olive grove tasting room. All accompanied by super interesting guide commentary - thanks for the lovely afternoon out! One of the highlights of my North Island stay for sure.
Wonderful Experience—will do it again!

This was an amazing experience and great introduction to Waiheke and New Zealand. As our amazing tour guide, Justine made the tour an absolute success! She is a lovely person with keen inside knowledge and charm. She gave a wonderful history of New Zealand and Waiheke, to include the people, culture and wildlife and fauna. I’m already planning my next trip to New Zealand and will include over night stays at Waiheke Island.

This was a lovely hike that was expertly curated by our two expert guides! The views were amazing, and the hike, while moderately challenging, was very doable - and very much worth the effort! We learned about the Island's history and its heritage. The beach side picnic lunch was delicious and timed perfectly in between our two wine tastings. We enjoyed each of the wine tastings very much. It seemed that many day travelers to Waiheke Island opt for bus tours or bike tours. I am so happy that we chose this private, guided walk versus the other options! Thanks go out to our guides who went above and beyond, and really brought the Island to life for our group!

We were fortunate to have Justine guide us up and thru lush foliage with mini-botany lessons along the way! She always checked to make sure the pace was appropriate. We chatted about Māori history and many other topics during a delish boxed lunch. It ended with 2 diff. winery stops with tastings-5 hours in glorious Island weather. Can’t recommend this tour AND Justine, specifically, enough!! So memorable!!!
Wonderful Guide, Beautiful Views

Guide Lucy was so knowledgeable about the history of the island so I learned much more than I expected. She was gracious and friendly, and I would highly recommend.
