Off the Beaten Path with Wine!

Corrine_B, Mar 2023

We were fortunate to have Justine guide us up and thru lush foliage with mini-botany lessons along the way! She always checked to make sure the pace was appropriate. We chatted about Māori history and many other topics during a delish boxed lunch. It ended with 2 diff. winery stops with tastings-5 hours in glorious Island weather. Can’t recommend this tour AND Justine, specifically, enough!! So memorable!!!

Guide Lucy was so knowledgeable about the history of the island so I learned much more than I expected. She was gracious and friendly, and I would highly recommend.

Excellent Tour & Guide

Excellent tour. My guide was knowledgeable and friendly. She shared her personal experiences and I heard a lot about the Māori culture and New Zealand history. I was the only one on the tour, so I’m glad it didn’t get cancelled. We moved at a comfortable pace, so overall, it was a good experience. A nice little workout before we made it to the beautiful wineries. The views were also amazing!

Response from Host, Dec 2022
