Waiheke Flavours Tour Lunch Wine Oil Beer Spirits Max 11 Clients

This is a fabulous tour. Our guide, Melita, was so friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Every stop on the island was an amazing experience - great gourmet and artisan offerings. Strongly recommend.

Wonderful tour, loved the variety of wine olives lunch and spirits. Great tour guide in Meleti she was fun and very informative

We did the tastes of Waiheke which was great bc we could go to wineries, as well as olive place and spirits. This gave good variety particularly if you are not so much of a vino person. As a girls weekend group this tour company may not be the right fit. We wanted to learn somethings about Waiheke, as some of our friends hadn't been before, but were quickly made to feel like it was no talking and just listening to the commentary or no commentary. I think a little more flexibility here and having the ability to have conversations while also learning some things. It would be more fitting for an older age group or couples. Our group was there to enjoy the drinks and check out what the island had to offer. We did appreciate our guide, Glen, giving us extra time at the final vineyard and taking the later ferry back at 5pm.

Glen give us a nice tour of Waheke, nice wine, and food. We had a very good time.

Glenn was a fantastic guide and we enjoyed the conversation and all the sights. Definitely plan on taking home olive oils and whiskey! You can ship the wine 😀

A very enjoyable and entertaining tour with Oliver as our guide. The highlight for us was the Casita Miro tasting which was both delicious and very informative. Also enjoyed our tastings and experience at The Heke and Allpress. Great to have so much variety. The only small letdown was lunch at The Batch - this was our second time at the Batch and it was equally disappointing on both occasions. Perhaps consider an alternative lunch venue going forward.

Malita, our guide, was THE BEST!! She explained well the history of Waiheke, pointed out many points unique to the island, made the tour very pleasant and full of interesting facts. We tried wines, olive oils, had a great lunch and finished with beers or whiskey and gin. A very complete trip with outstanding venues, I recommend it highly.

Ollie was amazing! Gave great yarns, beautiful day and outstanding locations.

We had the most incredible experience on the Flavours of Waiheke tour with Melita! It ended up being just my partner and I, so we were treated to a truly VIP experience from start to finish. Every stop was thoughtfully curated, and everything we tasted was absolutely top-notc, from the wines and craft beers to the spirits, delicious food, and incredible olive oils. The included lunch was a real highlight and perfectly complemented the day. What made this tour so special was the variety, it really is the perfect way to experience a bit of everything Waiheke has to offer without feeling rushed. Melita was fantastic; warm, knowledgeable, and made the whole day feel relaxed and personal. If you're looking for a well-rounded, indulgent, and memorable experience, I can’t recommend this tour highly enough. A perfect day we’ll be talking about for a long time!

Amazing experience! Melita was funny, knowledgeable and just a joy! The places we visited were very impressive!! Highly recommend! Renee

Maletia was so helpful as my wife injured here knee joint on way to the ferry and we needed a brace, cane and drugs for pain. She came early and stopped at the pharmacy so we could get what we needed. You need to give her a raise she is awesome and we highly recommend the tour you have put together. I have zero complaints. From Canada and our 5 th time here first time to the island for the wine oil and whiskey tour.lunch was outstanding.

Malita safely and expeditiously took us around the island for a taste extravaganza- wine, honey, olive oil, beer and spirits- And we ate the best lunch at the most glorious overlook. She is a skilled driver and a great communicator of island history. Book your tour NOW!

One of the best days. Covered all. Delicious wine and food pairing, lunch. beer and spirits. Glenn's commentary was informative, full of history and funny. Highly recommend.

The tour was very varied in what we tasted (wine, beer, spirits) plus a wonderful lunch. Glenn took us all around the island and was very knowledgeable about all aspects of the vineyards and overall island life

Glenn was just awesome. He was very friendly, funny and informative. The tour had a great variety of experiences, just loved it !! Thank you 😀

just the right balance of information sharing, scenic meandering and wine/oil!

This tour was great. Melita was very knowledgeable and had great connections all over the island. We very much enjoyed getting a sample of all Waiheke had to offer. There were 6 in our group which was perfect.

This was a fantastic tour! I loved the variety of flavors. Melita the tour guide was very knowledgeable and personable. Great day out!

As a local foodie from Auckland, I indulge in these types of experiences on Waiheke Island from time to time. This is the third time I have done a Waiheke wine tour but this was the first time with this particular operator. The itinerary is well-thought out and is clearly designed to make for a sensible, pleasant, and enjoyable half-day spent on the island, with a delightful mix of a gourmand's dream: wine from Casita Miro, olive oils at Allpress, lunch at The Batch Winery, and a tasting flight of either beers or spirits from The Heke, each of which offered a boutique experience that highlights both the exquisite quality of their artisanal products and the beautiful venues where they serve these tasting experiences. There were only 7 of us total in this group. Setting the maximum client number to 11 is a plus as it makes the experience more intimate and special. This review would not be complete if I did not mention how absolutely impressed and delighted we all were by the tour guide, Melita, who is a local island resident. Her passion, knowledge, and love of the island and what it has to offer was quite energising and educational. Brava, Melita! Mille grazie!!

Melita was an excellent tour guide. The tour was enjoyable, informative, and value for money. I highly recommend it to both locals and tourists.

This trip was extraordinary. It started with a warm welcome by the amazing tour guide Melita. It was a perfect mix of everything educatinal, well organised, and we got the benefit of the best tour guide. Making this experience more adventurous, we all felt included and safe. We wouldn't ask to change anything about this, it really was fun, exciting and got to see and do everything. Meanwhile we were also able to enjoy it and kind of relax. Definitely recommend this trip for anyone trying to explore the real beauty of waiheke island. And most importantly to look for Melita the tour guide.

Fantastic experience on Waiheke Island. The Flavours of Waiheke really include everything this place can offer. Melita was a great guide

Fantastic wine tasting experience! The tour was perfectly organized, with comfortable transportation and well-managed times. We visited beautiful wineries, immersed in wonderful landscapes, and tasted excellent wines. Melita, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and passionate, able to explain every detail in a clear and engaging way, without ever being boring. Relaxed atmosphere, pleasant group and great value for money. An absolutely recommended experience, both for wine lovers and for those who want to discover the most authentic side of the island.
