What to expect

Connect with the profoundly beautiful nature of Waiheke Island through local eyes. Meet real people and ponder stunning wine in naturally pretty settings and we have some wonderful lunch options for you. Grant will be your personal guide for the day. He will greet you as you step onto the beautiful Waiheke Island. Once your small group of like minded wine lovers are all together your adventure begins with a drive up to Oneroa Village where we will stop briefly to get you into a Waiheke frame of mind and you can grab a locally roasted coffee. We then drive along the most beautiful forested back roads looking down to the sparkling blue water as we head towards your first Waiheke winery. We avoid the heavily used commercial tour routes and focus on the real old school wineries where the people are interesting and the wine is gorgeous being made from hand picked grapes from the sustainable vineyard surrounding you. Every wine maker has a unique approach and our guests often comment on the relaxed flow of the tour and nice contrasting boutique wineries and the sweet vibe of this ancient Jurassic island. . Cheers!
