Lance's Dream Winery Tour

We did a VIP tour of selected wineries we wanted to visit. They made it happened for a better price than others we contacted! Thanks making Lance's Dream Wine Tour a success!

Amazing Private Wine Tour

Published on May, 2024

We had two days of private wine touring in the Central Otago wine region. What an amazing experience! Our tour guides, Martin and Paul, were fantastic. So knowledgeable of the area and of the wines. Being Pinot Noir enthusiasts we were thrilled to taste so many wonderful Pinots and other great wines too. I will be recommending them to our friends who will be visiting the area later in the year. If your in the Queenstown area run and make your reservations for a private tour with Appellation Wine Tours.

A Great Day!!

Published on May, 2024

Great driver, very knowledgeable, good choice of vineyards and luckily a nice group. Phoebe the wine dog was a big hit at Brennan's.
