Very knowledgable guide. Went to some lovely venues. Beautiful food. Great beverages. Would definitely recommend
Melita is a fabulous guide. We enjoyed every aspect of the trip. She made accommodations for gluten free an non drinkers.
We had the most wonderful day. Melita was such fun and a great host. She was engaging and entertaining, and also very knowledgeable about the island. She felt like a good friend by the time the day was over! We enjoyed the wines, as well as the olive oils, and the lunch was absolutely delicious. The distillery/brewery was a good way to end the day. Thank you Melita!!
We had a great day with tastings at a vineyard, olive grove, brewery/distillery and lunch at another vineyard. Melita was a fantastic host very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the area looking after our small group of 6. Great company highly recommend the trip.
We had a wonderful and tasteful day on Waiheke Island. Our Guide Melitta was super and gave us many informations about the island, the vineyards and the environment. It was great fun with her and the Australian couple. We highly recommend this experience esp. due to the mix of tastings from wine to oil and spirits (or beer). Thank you for making our last day in New Zealand a special one 😇
We couldn’t have been happier with this tour. Melita was such a great guide., we learned so much about the island, and she is highly entertaining. The locations were beautiful, and we really enjoyed the variety on this tour - wine, olive oil, beer, and spirits.. the lunch was really good, and the location on the top of the mountain was spectacular. The small group size meant we could get to know the other participants. Loved it all!
This was a great experience trip with variety that we really enjoyed: winery, Olive Oil Mill, brewery and distillery! Melita was very knowledgeable and provided additional history, local information about the island and additional places to go and see if we had more time in the area. She also had fun energy and our group had an excellent day!
We had the pleasure of spending the day with Melita touring the island and enjoying her knowledge and wittiness while tasting amazing wines at Casita Miro, tasting local olive oil, enjoying a great lunch at Batch winery and to top it off a beer (or spirits) tasting at The Heke. With a small group of lovely people, this was a perfect day even with the rainy weather. Thanks Melita! :)
Took us to amazing locations, and throughout the trip, the guide was very enthusiastic in sharing interesting stories and engaged very well with us with a good sense of humour
We booked a private wine tour last minute to Waiheke Island. Glenn was very knowledgeable and friendly and took us to two great wineries, an olive oil tasting, and a great place for lunch at the beach. Highly recommend!
Tour was fun and got to see a good amount of the island and learn lots. Oliver was great, knowledgeable and funny and really took care of everyone during the tour. Highly recommend if you’re looking for some wine and good time while on Waiheke!
Glenn was so knowledgeable, experienced and very funny. He greeted us by name at the ferry terminal with great enthusiasm. The van was spacious and comfortable. The tour was just the right length. Not too slow and not too rushed. We were blessed with blue skies and wonderful weather for a July winter. The choice of vineyards was excellent and worth the time and money for this premium tour of the island. I would definitely recommend you take this. See you again someday Glenn.
Glenn was our tour guide and it was fantastic. He gave us a bunch of history on the island, talked about wine, and even gave us great places to go for lunch! Wonderful tour guide and wonderful wine tastings!
We appreciated! It was a great experience. We loved the tour, the guide was instructive and We loved the wines!
Great tour. Very good wineries and amazing scenery. Our guide was very informative and helpful. Great day in Waiheke Island
Fantastic tour filled with an awesome and intimate selection of winery’s. Oliver was a delight with a very clear appreciation for the island that was felt throughout our group. Great cheeky chats as well! Thank you for accommodating us during our holiday!
Small enough group to get to know one another over wine tasting. Three nice wineries with different types at each. Driver/tour guide Luca was very helpful and accommodating. Nice tour of the island too.
Ruthie was a great guide. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Made the day relaxing and fun. The wineries were also fantastic
