5.00A wonderfully personal, irreverent and well-diversified day outing. We had excellent commentary on Waiheke’s history, a solid tour of the lovely island and stops at three vineyards with different strengths. Our guide, Glen, was engaged and fun, making sure we got a lunch table at the place we fancied amongst his recommendations. A winter visit yielded an extra-small group tour for us, which was a plus. Small groups are definitely the way to visit vineyards! Recommended.
Great day tour

5.00Brilliant tour. Lovely Glen picked us up at the ferry and took us on a mini tour of the island with commentary before taking us to three very different but excellent wineries.
