The Best Way to See Waiheke - Everyone in our group loved this private guided tour! Our guides went out of their way to accommodate everyone in our group. They were knowledgable, outgoing and friendly. The views from the peaks of our hike were amazing! The two wine tastings and our picnic lunch at the beach were the perfect cap to our morning hike. It seemed to us that many visitors to Waiheke opt for larger group tours or bike rides. For us having our own guide and being able to go at our own pace made the experience thoroughly enjoyable. Plus we got to know our guides a bit, and that was a pleasure all unto itself.

Great guide makes a great tour - We were unable to catch the 9am ferry so Justine adjusted the tour time and waited for us. She was thoughtful and we learned a lot from her about Waiheke, NZ, and some Maori culture. We also love the food and we had a nice spot for the picnic lunch overlooking the beach. It was my birthday that day, she was very sweet and went beyond our expectations to make sure we are comfortable and enjoyed the tour.

The best tour I have ever been on! - This tour was more than I could imagine. Gabrielle was so knowledgeable about the island and is a legendary local. She showed us a phenomenal time and made us feel like locals too. I highly recommend Gabrielle, you can't get better than her!

Great walk - We took the vineyards and bush walk around Waiheke. I don't really like bus tours and this was a nice option. A little longer walk than advertised but very slow easy
pace. Great views and 2 winery stops. Good guide.
