5.00The wine tour was incredible. Our tour guide Caleb was very knowledgable about the area and each vineyard, and was perfect for getting us from place to place. The full tour was well timed and we managed to fit everything in we needed to, and it never felt like we rushed. And we were back down to make the 4pm ferry to Auckland. The staff at all 3 vineyards were also very pleasant and knowledgeable, and the wine was amazing. Highly recommend this tour.
I highly recommend this...
