3.00The guide was tremendously disorganized. We spent 45 minutes trying to find his other passengers. The first winery we went to was closed. The second winery was run by a vintner who was dismissive of our questions. The island is quite beautiful but the guide didn’t stop for photo ops. I think a wine tour of this island is certainly worth it but not with this operator.
Wonderful Small Group Experience that's More than Just Wine

5.00Grant led a personalized and incredibly fun wine tasting experience. Within five minutes of arriving Waiheke Island and talking to Grant, we understood why there is so much pride for the island. Grant shared his favorite spots and took us on a tour that was more than just wine. Even though it wasn't on the itinerary, he added an unexpected stop due to our interest in olive oil. We appreciated how easygoing and relaxing the tour ended up being, with three excellent choices in wineries that were each unique and beautiful in their own way. We truly got a taste of the island, even if it was only for one day.
