Very experienced guide...

Published on Feb, 2025

Very experienced guide with extensive knowledge of the area and wine industry. Good value for a short time commitment.

Must do experience

Published on Feb, 2025

Great way to spend the afternoon. Spectacular views and great choice of wineries. John our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to accommodate my request in search for the ultimate fruit ice-cream. Well planned tour.

Great day

Published on Oct, 2024

Great day even though it was raining. Picked up right outside the Sky Tower Casino which was a short walk from our hotel. John gave commentary about the area as he drove us to the first stop at Kumeu River Winery. We had a few tastings of each white and red. John then showed us around the winery. We saw the laboratory where they create new flavors, the barrels in the seller, and the bottling area. We then drove to view the black sand beach for a photo. We then arrived at Westbrook. This winery is in a beautiful country setting. We enjoyed the tastings, but would have liked to walked the grounds but unfortunately it was still raining. We learned a lot about different wines and the wine making process.

Greatest tour!

Published on Aug, 2024

Everything about this tour was perfect! The tour guide, John, was very friendly, knowledgable, and hospitable. He knows everything there is to know about wine and wine-making. He communicated timely for a seamless pickup and drop off— even getting us closer to the hotel than the default area point. The tour itself takes you through the rolling hills of Aucklands beautiful suburbs/country. There are lots of sheep, cattle, and greenery. The vineyards were lovely— they will give you sample tasting to the kinds of wines you like or are more inclined too. Everything was 10/10! Highly recommend.

Amazing tour and wine!

We had a wonderful afternoon enjoying lovely NZ wines and learning a great deal from our guide. I highly recommend!
