From start to finish this was an absolutely brilliant experience that we would highly recommend to anyone who is considering it. Not just a wine tour but a trip around the local area and waterfront. Our driver, Sonia was a wealth of knowledge about the area and the vineyards we visited. Very friendly, easy going and nothing was s problem. Small groups are always the best way to go.
Wholeheartedly recommend!

Thoughtful, ethical, knowledgeable, and enjoyable. This personalized tour experience was perhaps the most high quality we experienced in all of New Zealand. We did multiple wine tours with this company. We were lucky enough to have Zane as our guide. Zane is exceedingly knowledgeable about food and wine, making our wine tasting experience quite enjoyable and informative. Zane also has great stories to share as someone who is born and bred in New Zealand and someone who has traveled a great deal as well. We were incredibly impressed that Zane could name every tree and bird we asked about on the road. We learned a great deal about New Zealand's history, topography, climate, and culture. Zane made a point of taking us to several places that featured art by Maori artists. His understanding of Maori culture and language are impressive and a reflection of his dedication to honoring the land and the people who first inhabited it. We would recommend this company and any of their tours wholeheartedly.

We enjoyed a wonderful day with our guide Michelle exploring 4 wineries and the surrounding countryside. The wineries were fun and more boutique ( we especially enjoyed Flaxmore) than the well known names. We also appreciated Michelle ‘s expansive knowledge about the wineries and the history of the area. An excellent day.

A perfect introduction to the local wineries. Our guide Phillip provided a commentary about the localities history as well as the four wineries we visited. The small group allowed for easy entry to the tastings and we were able to ask questions and take our time in the vineyards.
A perfect day out sampling the best of Marlborough

We had an absolutely fabulous day out, perfect for couples and friends! We chose the Marlborough tour, and it exceeded our expectations. Our driver, Will, was outstanding—polite, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. He ensured we were comfortable and well looked after throughout the journey. The itinerary included a visit to the iconic Cloudy Bay and several charming smaller wineries, all set against the stunning backdrop of Marlborough’s picturesque landscapes. This 9-to-5 private tour, complete with a delicious lunch and wine tastings, is a must-do. It’s ideal for those short on time or anyone wanting to experience the very best of Marlborough’s renowned wine scene. Highly recommended!
