Overview

It's always 5 o'clock at Altitude Tours. Join the Twilight Wine & Craft Beer Tour for an entertaining late afternoon wine and beer tasting tour.

Meet your friendly local guide in the Queenstown town centre and then travel out and enjoy exploring the Gibbston wine region and Queenstown, visiting cellar doors offering unique collections of both local wines and craft beers.

Throughout the afternoon, enjoy three unique tasting experiences at a mix of both wineries and breweries, finishing off with platters. Prefer a Pale Ale over a Pinot Noir? As we move around you are welcome to choose between either wine or beer tastings, switching it up between locations.

Departing in the afternoon, this tour allows you to make the most of your time in Queenstown. Whether you've just arrived that day or spent the morning exploring, this tour easily fits into your afternoon while still getting you back to Queenstown early enough to enjoy your evening.

Ana was so pleasant, professional and a great guide. The wines were all good, some better than others. A fun outing, especially as Ana bought the various groups together.

We really enjoyed ourselves. Beth our guide was very informative and jolly, the wineries we visited made us feel very welcome. We started off as a group of strangers but by the end of the tour we were all like best buddies!

I couldn’t do the tour because the minimum number of participants was not met. There are cases where people want to participate in the tour but are not able to do so.

I missed some of the tour and was able to attend the third spot. The wine was not good, gave me a huge headache. Others also complained. And the quantity of food (anti pasta) was too little. If you want to cancel needs to be within 48 hours which is annoying, should be 24 hours Not really worth the price, my friends suggest other places
