Fun mix of activity and tasting - We had a great time on the Bush Walk & Wine Tour on Waiheke Island! Our guide, Robyn, was outstanding — knowledgeable, adaptable, and fun. Even though it rained, we made the most of it and had an enjoyable experience. The tour offered a nice mix of activity and wine tasting. Thanks, Robyn!

Best way to explore Waiheke - Had the absolute best time with Justine and Robyn on this fantastic tour of Waiheke Island. Walking through the bush was a great way to explore this gorgeous island and its vineyards. We visited a couple of beautiful and renowned vineyards and even made an extra stop at a lovely olive grove tasting room. All accompanied by super interesting guide commentary - thanks for the lovely afternoon out! One of the highlights of my North Island stay for sure.

Great hiking tour - customizable for all abilities. - Our guide and experience was phenomenal. Justine customized our tour based on our time constraint and she took us on an amazing hike and we did wine and olive oil tasting. Highly recommend this tour. 5 Star.

Guide Made Me Want to Move to Waiheke Island! - With only two people on the tour (it was low season), traveling around the island with our guide Justine felt like we were just hanging out with a friend. The other guest and I were both traveling solo, and with Justine, we got to see everything that made visiting (and living on) the island so wonderful. We began with an easy 1.8 miles walk straight from the ferry terminal, admiring views of the water, outdoor art displays, and some native birds and plants. We even stopped for a few minutes to talk with some locals who are friends of Justine - so again, it felt like we got a really personal tour of the island. We also visited two fabulous vineyards for tastings, picked up a picnic lunch from a cafe that easily accommodated my dietary requirements, enjoyed lunch next to the water, and overall learned a lot about life on the island. Waiheke Island is a beautiful and laid-back place that I would consider staying rather than in Auckland so I could more easily and thoroughly enjoy all the trails and vineyards.

Amazing walking tour with wine tasting - We had an amazing Bush Walk and couple of wine tasting visits with Cindy on a sunny Waiheke island in May. Cindy was a brilliant tour guide with a lot of knowledge on local nature and history. We had fantastic conversation all the way while walking and looking at splendid sceneries, eating tasty packed lunch and visiting the vineyards. Thank you Cindy, Waiheke island is definitely a place I would love to visit again.

Wonderful Experience—will do it again! - This was an amazing experience and great introduction to Waiheke and New Zealand. As our amazing tour guide, Justine made the tour an absolute success! She is a lovely person with keen inside knowledge and charm. She gave a wonderful history of New Zealand and Waiheke, to include the people, culture and wildlife and fauna. I’m already planning my next trip to New Zealand and will include over night stays at Waiheke Island.

Fascinating, beautiful walk, lots of variety and a very enthusiastic guide - A day out with guide Maria is highly recommended; beautiful walk, interesting stops, delicious lunch. And with Maria who told us a lot about New Zealand in general and Waiheke Island in particular, it was the perfect end to our trip through New Zealand.

A very nice walk with excellent stops along the way - We were met at the ferry by Maria, our guide for the day. We were so lucky with this enthusiastic guide who had a lot of information about the island, but also about nature and history. We had 2 wine tastings and we were surprised with an olive oil tasting. And we were lucky that we could experience the sculpture walk. Fascinating tour thanks to our wonderful guide Maria. The lunch she brought for us was more than excellent

Waiheke Island Experts - Del was an excellent guide. She knows Waiheke Island in depth and was very flexible in customizing our experience. Unfortunately one of the wine tastings we scheduled was unavailable at the last minute but Del rearranged things to accommodate that issue.
