Great time - It was a quiet tour with just the two of us, and our driver Tony. He was great, super friendly and knowledgeable about the local area. We had a great time and would recommend to anyone looking to try out some stellar Marlborough wines!

Marlborough wine - We were taken to three very different wineries. A great variety and all had superb wines. Our tour guide was awesome. We were a group of six. Highly recommend. The price was right, too.

Great Marlborough wine experience - Pick up at the Blenheim I-Site was prompt, the bus was comfortable, and the whole afternoon was lovely. There were only 5 of us and we visited three vineyards plus the legendary Makana chocolate factory: Wither Hills, Framingham and Whitehaven. I believe the wineries chosen change depending on the group and what is open each day, so you might get something different. Great value and a very convenient way to visit a few cellar doors while in Blenheim.

Would recommend! - Are group only had 8 guests which was amazing since we were able to get to know everyone. All 4 couples (including us) came from a different country which was fun and we were all in the same age group (20-30). We were taken to 3 different vineyards. Since it was march, it was a little chilly but the last vineyard gave us blankets which was really nice. Loved the experience, would do it again. Thank you to our amazing chauffeur Finn.

Marlborough Wineries Simply Supreme - We enjoyed our tour with Fenn. He was very informative of the region and history. We went to three wineries. One of them was very boutique and personal. Wineries were welcoming and the tastings generous. Highly recommend this 1/2 day visit to the wine country.

Excellent Afternoon Wine Tasting - Great trip, visited 3 wineries with several tastings in each. Excellent, knowledgeable tour guide Lisa who also squeezed in a visit to a chocolate maker. Staff at wineries very informative. Tip: no time to eat anything so eat before the tour

Brilliant half day wine tour - Excellent guided tour with Lise, so friendly and informative. Went to 3 vineyards and tasted several wines at each. Also as a bonus we had a quick visit to an artisan chocolate shop. Highly recommended trip

Some good, some not so - We booked a half-day wine tour online with the only pickup in Blenheim (cruise ship docked at Picton ). We discovered there was only one bus and one train each day to Blenheim and only one taxi in Picton! We were lucky enough to get the taxi - at a cost of NZ$145 - to Blenheim only to find that the tour bus had then picked up in Picton after all because other cruise passengers phoned to say they couldn't get to Blenheim! Onward to Marlborough wineries with Pete the driver we visited 3 wineries and a chocolate factory. Spy Valley was a really good winery but not so Framlingham where there was no booking for the group and no shade outside (the only space available). Saint Clair winery saved the day with an excellent presentation by French sommelier Vadim and excellent tastings. Overall though f day winery toura more costly experience for us than we expected!
