5 hours, 4 wineries, and a pace that actually lets you enjoy it. This is our biggest seller — and once you're on it, you'll see why. You'll visit 4 wineries across the island, with proper sit-down tastings at three of them. Your guide's a local. They live here. They know the winemakers, they know which table to grab, and they know the little stories behind the island and the people who live here.
The lunch stop is Batch Winery — the highest point on the island — with the most stunning views and wines, of course. Sit down with something delicious, a glass of whatever caught your eye earlier, and just take in the views stretching out over the water.
From there it's on to Stonyridge for another tasting, then the grand finale — Mudbrick Vineyard. The most iconic vineyard on Waiheke. A final glass with the Hauraki Gulf sparkling below you.
After that, it's back to the ferry — or we'll drop you somewhere on the island to keep enjoying your day.
