Great way to tour the island! - We really enjoyed our tour. We were able to do a short nature hike, then check out art on the island. We had a picnic lunch in the most beautiful garden filled with sculptures. We’re the only people here with our guide. Our guide Del was wonderful and informative. She later took us to a beautiful winery for a tasting. Definitely recommend doing a private tour with them.

A great experice ! - I have done two tours with Gabrielle. She is fantastic and passionate about her job and the Waiheke community. I did the art tour and a bush walk, and it was so gratifying to speak with the artist and hear the bird of Waiheke on the bush walk.

An excellent art tour. - My wife and I had an excellent art tour with Dale of Terra & Tide. Picked up at the ferry , we visited a variety of galleries, and an art garden, as well as seeing some of the island's natural beauty. We ended up purchasing two small pieces during the visits and are quite happy with them now we are back in Boulder, CO.

Beautiful Island Tour - What a fun tour! The group size was small, so Nicky was able to customize the tour a bit. 🩵 Lunch on the bluff was delicious and I learned about local artists in addition to the natural surroundings. The cost of the tour was slightly high, but I think it was worth it and would recommend the tour to others.

An Absolute Must - Our time on Waiheke Island was amazing. Nicky, our tour guide, took us around the galleries on the main road of the island and if felt like walking through a large, live outdoor art museum. We also visited a sanctuary garden and looked over scenic country and beach views of Waiheke. We learned so much about its rich history, as well as the current lifestyle of the locals. By far, this was the best part of our Australia/New Zealand trip.

Great visit - We spent a very pleasant day with Nicky who walked us through the streets of this magnificent island, combining the most spectacular views with visits to artist galleries. All accompanied by multitudes of comments. I recommend for art lovers.

Seeing art works on Waiheke Island - It was an extraordinary tour. Gabrielle made me feel like she was showing me her own island and the artworks and artists on it. I have traveled to many countries, and this was one of the most memorable tours I’ve ever had. Thank you Gabrielle for giving me such a special day.

Gardens and artists - The tour was very interesting and we did things that would not have been possible on our own. Lunch with the artist at an artist’s studio and home was very special. The Sacred Blessing Sanctuary gardens were spectacular and one of the highlights of our three week expedition to both islands. A wonderful day trip from Auckland with delightful people.

Waiheke Art Tour - Our guide Tracey was fabulous! Not only did she take us to see some amazing artists and their work, but she added in an extra Artist as we'd expressed an interest in their work.
