From start to finish our full day tour was first class. John, our guide was really informed on all of the wineries and in particular the wines of the region. We visited 4 wineries all within a short drive to each other and stopped for lunch at one where we received a VIP tour from the owners. We tasted and purchased lots of wine and had an absolute ball throughout the day. I can’t recommend these guys highly enough for a great fun day out.

John was a terrific guide. He was on time and accomidating to our group. Two people dropped at the airport, and two returning to Auckland. He was so informative about wine and what makes NZ wines so special. This is a great way to spend a few hours before a flight. Highly recommend.

Our guide was very informative and knowledgeable in wine and great food in Auckland in general. He gave excellent restaurant recommendations and took time out of his day on the way back to Auckland to show us where the restaurants were. Was definitely one of the better wine tours and Villa Maria wines were very accommodating by personalising the wine tasting to suit our tastes.

This was our very first tour for our trip and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. John arrived to our hotel on time and was warm and welcoming from the very start. He guided us through Cornwall Park and to the top of One Tree Hill, which was breathtakingly beautiful. John is very knowledgable and provided insight into the background of Auckland. Once arriving to Villa Maria, John contributed to the tour which complimented to the experience. We had a beautiful tour of the winery and tasted a variety of fantastic wines. A must do tour when visiting Auckland.
