Get to know Napier with Viator

Napier is known for two things: fine wine and art deco architecture. After an earthquake destroyed most of the city in 1931, new construction embraced the art deco style popular at the time. Today, vintage streetscapes combine with a warm climate to give the coastal city a decadent feel, while the prime grape-growing conditions in surrounding Hawke’s Bay make it the largest wine-producing region in the North Island.
