5.00Fantastic tour & tastings. Our guide Oliver was THE BEST….if you are in Auckland and want a great experience book this tour (it’s a small group 11 max) and the scenery and wines are amazing. Short ferry ride from the pier in Auckland and Oliver meets you at the destination it’s a stress free day and a wonderful experience it may be one of the few hidden paradise’s in this world! Go check it out.
