Living the pinot dream - I had a great experience on the Central Otago wine tour with Living the Dream Tour. The tour guide, Michelle, was flexible and accommodating to my wine tastes and interests. For instance, she secured a spot for me for the tour and wine tasting at Felton Road Wines due to a last-minute cancellation. Michelle has extensive knowledge of wine and Wanaka. If you are staying in Wanaka, I highly recommend you book this wine tour.

Great wine tour. - What a fantastic day. Michelle was a wonderful host. We had no other people on our tour so got a personalised experience. We visited 5 wineries, had a lovely anti pasta platter for lunch and got to taste some great Otago region wines. Glad we didn’t have to drive home!!! Great way to spend a day whilst in Wanaka. Highly recommended.

Great tour - great host. - We had a fantastic day with Michelle. We visited fantastic places and met some lovely people. Michelle was a superb guide, with amazing knowledge of the area. She even reorganised the original plan she had for us based on our feedback to her during the tour. Great day out.

AMAZING wine tour in Wanaka - We had the BEST day on the wine tour in Wanaka with Michelle!! Michelle is so friendly, kind and fun to be around plus she knows so much about the area and lots of experience with wine tours in Napa and tours around NZ. We learned a ton about the area and also loved getting to hear about Michelle's background too. We really enjoyed all 4 wineries and had a perfect amount of time at each one. She also took us to a beautiful overlook spot and took some great photos for us too. I would HIGHLY recommend booking a tour with Michelle!!

We had a wonderful day... - We had a wonderful day tasting wines with Michelle! We visited wineries and tried unique wines that we likely wouldn’t have if we went to Wanaka wineries on our own. Would recommend this experience!!

Michelle is a Wine Rockstar! - Michelle was such a great wine tour guide (and hilarious too)! She knows what she is doing and went the extra mile to make our tour amazing (thanks for the awesome photos). Such a fun experience and my husband and I felt it was great value as well. We wish her the best as she grows her business :)

It was Amazing. And very well organised - This tour we had was very personalised for only the two of us and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Michelle our tour guide was full of information about different wineries in Wānaka and also about different parts of New Zealand. We were given ample time to enjoy the wines as well as the surrounding and the tour lasted 6 hours.

Customized Private Wine Day!!! - Private wine tour with Michelle was wonderful! My friend and I were visiting from CA and wanted a top notch wine experience and Michelle delivered. She was super fun and a delightful informative tour guide. She arranges everything - we just showed up. Relaxed and never rushed tour with beautiful wineries! Just do it!

Amazing tour with a fun and knowledgeable guide - Michelle is an excellent tour guide, knows heaps about wine and the regions, and generally fun to be around. We had a memorable day with her in Central Otago. We’d love to spend another day with her exploring more of the region in our future trips.

Fabulous local tour of Otago wine region 🍇🇳🇿 - We had such a wonderful day with Michelle exploring the Otago region of the South Island as part of our honeymoon! The 7 hour tour brought us to 5 local stops and also included a delicious charcuterie lunch spread. Michelle knows so much about the area and we loved the variety of wines we tasted and vineyards and tasting rooms we visited. Don’t miss your chance to book with her!
