Overview

Afternoon wine tour with a lunch stop. A great option for people who desire the expert knowledge and connections that a winemaker tour guide can offer. A compact tour with time for lunch at a winery (at own cost).

On our half day tour you get up close and personal with the Marlborough wine region. You visit 3-4 wineries which can include a visit to Makana Chocolate Shop. Lunch at a vineyard restaurant is always a highlight for our half-day customers.

The half day small group winery tour has an itinerary but the tour guide will invite participants to make winery requests and vineyard suggestions.

If you have a favorite wine that you would like to taste and visit then we will do our best to take you there on this Half day Winery tour. This tour does not include a visit to Cloudy Bay, Fromm and Hans Herzog.

Contact us to upgrade to a "Full-day Winemaker's Tour" which includes an informative vineyard stop, followed by a behind-the-scenes look at a modern working winery! 0800 478 868

We were guided to 4 different venues including lunch at Saint Clair family estate winery. Our tour guide Darlene was knowledgeable as well as an excellent driver as she took us to sample local white and red varietals of Marlborough products. The lunch was excellent matched by the wine pairings. Altogether a very pleasant experience to spend an afternoon.

Brilliant experience, we had a great group and Cam as a local winemaking expert shared local knowledge and took us to all the hot spots which you might not find yourself. Because of this tour I think we were well looked after too rather than if we were just exploring ourselves. Highly recommend.

Of course wine tours are always fun, but this one was really nice. Our fellow travelers were a pleasure. Our tour guide, Darlene, was great. She was knowledgeable, personable and very accommodating. We went to 4 cellar doors, one of which was remarkable - Gibson Bridge. I’ll be ordering a case when I get home to the US. Lunch at Allan Scott winery bistro was excellent.

We had a fantastic afternoon with Cam, our very informative guide. We had a mixed group of people on the tour, none of whom we had met beforehand, but Cam made everyone feel comfortable and included. We enjoyed the trip enormously and I’d certainly recommend it.

A wonderful selection of wine tastings and beautiful lunch at St Clair winery. We would highly recommend this company for exploring the Marlborough winery region. Winemaker Cam, our driver and local guide, was great.
