5.00Great day with or guide/driver Oliver. Great communication with the company from start to finish. Oliver was at the dock to pick us up just as described. As a resident of Waiheke Island he was knowledgeable of the area and gave us insight into the community. We went to three wineries and had great tastings at each. We had time for lunch and some walking around in town before heading back to catch the ferry to Auckland. Would recommend this tour for anyone wanting to visit some wineries on Waiheke. Ask for Oliver!
Fun and Educational Wine Tour of Waiheke Island

5.00Wonderful experience in which I learned quite a bit about Waiheke Island and about wine. The start was a bit confusing regarding the ferry from Auckland to Waiheke Island but I think it best to take the 9am Fullers 360. Once we met up we received a quick tour of the island followed by three stops which were excellent. We concluded with lunch on our own in town before heading back to catch the 4pm Fullers 360 ferry bound for Auckland.
Had a great time

5.00Absolutely must do. Glenn is a great tour guide who will give you a history of the island as well as the wineries. Each winery having its own unique feel, and the wines reflect that. The bus is comfortable even if you are on the taller side. Dad jokes and cheeky humor to be expected 😜
