Beautiful views and great winery - We loved this tour. What's not to like about a beautiful setting and wine tasting. Nikki was amazing and very knowledgeable about the island and the vineyards. It was great to meet the other couple and have the small group. We feel very fortunate to have taken this tour because we booked 2 days before. So the stars were with us even though the weather was not. It was a cool, windy and overcast day. Thankfully it did not rain until we were back in our hotel room. Definitely worth the money and the time.

Amazing personalized Tour - We booked a last minute tour but everything was so organised and amazing! It was a great experience without having to worry about driving after wine tasting. Nicky was lovely and personalized the trip for us by picking & dropping us from our AirBnB and stopping at woolsworth for us to get some stuff. I don't think there could have been any better tour than this!

A must do on Waiheke - We had a great time! We got to visit multiple beaches, got to have great views out over the island towards Auckland and all of that was in addition to the wine tasting at 3 different vineyards.

Sunshine, beaches and delicious wines - We had a wonderful time exploring the beautiful Waiheke with Vicky, who was very lovely and knowledgeable.
We started the tour at the harbour, and it was nice as it was just us and one other couple.
We were brought to three stunning beaches, before we visited the three wineries.
We tasted delicious wine, had a lovely lunch at a place with the most stunning vista and just had a brilliant day.
10/10 would recommend.

Small tour - big experience! - We particularly enjoyed the first tasting, at Stonyridge Vineyard - Gary gave us lots of interesting information about both the wine we were drinking and the history of the vineyard. And the view from Mudbrick Vineyard was amazing! We appreciated the stops at the beach for photos and to run our toes in the Pacific. Also loved Nicky’s personal style as a tour guide - so fun to see it all through a local’s eyes. Aimee and Bernie Doyle

Scenic and Fun - My daughter and I got to see some beautiful parts of the island and visited 3 fantastic wineries. Our tour guide, Nicky, and the wine stewards gave us some wine tasting lessons. It was a sunny day and the views were just fantastic.

The best way to experience Waiheke - Stop looking for the best Waiheke Wine Tasting tour and book this one now. Nicky is the best guide. She lives on Waiheke and her husband is on the wine making business. She knows the staff at the wineries she visits and her guests are immediately tended to and well taken care of. Her knowledge of the island, its history and the wine making business is encyclopedic. She is extremely flexible and just a lot of fun to be with. Look no further!!

Okay experience - This was an okay experience. The drive was very long over bumpy roads so please be aware of that. Our driver was great although he stopped several times on the way to be sick. The Cherry Tree Hill was anticlimactic and not worth the extra drive time. The lunch and Bathsheba was beautiful. Snorkeling was fun. Scheduled pick up time was before the stated pick up window and 2 hrs, 15 min before the stated excursion start time without any explanation and minimal notice (informed about 18 hours before pick up) Would have preferred more notice of these changes with an explanation. Also Viator listing stated 10 person tour max, we were a group of 10, and then they added more to our group.
