We had a wonderful day in Hawke‘s Bay! A tour with a very personal touch. Great conversations with the wine makers and tour guide. Beautiful countryside and very good wines. We were surprised by the variety of wines grown in the region. It was one of the best wine tours we have ever been on - and we live in California!

Hamish was an excellent host. We went to 3 wineries and the Te Mata lookout. A fabulous day in a small group of 8 people.

Ian was a delightful guide and incredibly informative. The pace was excellent and the wines delicious. We really enjoyed the small size of the group and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Napier.
Nicole_S, Mar 2024
Truly wonderful experience with a knowledgeable and friendly guide and a great group of people. We were a small group of 6 which made the experience intimate and enjoyable. Though I am not a wine drinker, I tried every one and even found a wine I enjoyed. My traveling companion on the other hand loves wine and he had a wonderful experience the different wineries.
Hilary_C, Mar 2024
Visiting 4 very different wineries and tasting such different wines in each was great. Chauffeur driven by the wine excellent Grant who was so knowledgeable about each winery, wine and the area. A lot was packed in. Great value.

Carolyn_W, Feb 2024
This was a good day out. Our small group really clicked and our guide was the most lovely person (Sally). Good local knowledge, great light lunch, did not feel rushed or pressured. A lot of wine was offered to taste, chose, and buy. Some wineries had more time to share than others...but all were welcoming. I was surprised to be charged in US$, so check that to avoid bank statement shock. (Minus 1* for the US$ - the tour itself was a 5.)
Lynn_T, Feb 2024
