Perfect first evening! - It was the perfect adventure for the day we landed in Auckland. Susan was wonderful, took us to great wineries and then to a fabulous restaurant for dinner. We were all tired from a long travel day and this was just the perfect excursion.

Waiheke Island tour was super fun! - Our tour was fantastic! Our guide, Susan, took us by beaches and showed us local flora and fauna, including identifying bird calls. We tasted wine at 2 places with private guides. Then climbed up high on a hill to see the best view. Dinner was on our own at another winery and then she took us back to the ferry. This was our first night in NZ and even the ferry was easy to negotiate. People are very helpful and we found our way! What a great way to start our vacation in New Zealand.

Unforgettable Sunset Tour on Waiheke Island - From the moment we embarked on Waiheke Island, it was clear we were in for a treat. The tour guide from Kiwi Connect, Susan, a perfect blend of knowledge and charm, welcomed us warmly. She was considerably adjusting for our request! The tour itself was a delightful journey through the picturesque landscapes of Waiheke. Our guide was not only well-informed but also had a keen sense of humor, making the historical and cultural insights all the more engaging. The highlight, undoubtedly, was the breathtaking sunset view. The guide knew the perfect spot, away from the crowds, offering a serene and almost magical vista of the sun dipping below the horizon, painting the sky in vibrant hues. What made this tour stand out was the attention to detail. Susan ensured everyone was comfortable, frequently checking in and answering questions with enthusiasm. The pace was relaxed, allowing us to truly soak in the beauty of the island and the moment. As the tour concluded, we left with not just spectacular photos, but also with a deeper appreciation of Waiheke Island's charm. This tour is a must-do in NZ!

Great Tour - I would highly recommend this tour. We had 2 great wineries, and then a gorgeous dinner at an amazing restaurant. I liked how we had an itinerary but were still able to move it around slightly. Very flexible.

A Must-Do Day Trip When in Aukland - This was an outstanding tour. Graham is fantastic. Very knowledgeable, super nice and just a delightful person. Knows the area like the back of his hand and took us to outstanding places all over the island. Highly recommended for everyone.

One tasting out of three was very good. - Our tour guide was enjoyable and friendly, the first winery we went to was amazing, and we had a great tasting. The second winery was not worth stopping at, and the third winery we did not have a tasting, but only a glass of wine that was included with our dinner that we paid for. We would have preferred a tasting at the final place as their wine did seem to be good.
