5.00A great way to experience the wines of the Wanaka region. We were collected from our holiday accommodation and transported by the very friendly Jesse to numerous wineries to taste our selection of various wines. It was fun, quite educational and lunch was a delicious feast. I'd highly recommend it.
Excellent afternoon!

5.00What a great experience! Jess is not only incredibly knowledgable, but her enthusiasm is contagious. She lives and breaths wine and the enjoyment others get from their experiences with wine. We visited 3 wineries and had an unbelievable lunch at the Stoker room. More than enough food was available. The wineries were Nanny Goat, Misha's, Carrick. Each with its own story and history, and providing different expressions of the local vineyards. It was a great way to spend the afternoon. Thank you Jess.
Really great half day wine tour
