This highly popular Waiheke Island "taste tour" will put your tastebuds to work as you visit Waiheke from Auckland for a day of wine and olive tasting at three vineyards as well as an olive grove then follow it up with the opportunity to taste some of the high quality, locally-produced foods the region is famous for. With such bounty on offer as mouthwatering preserves and world-class olive oils, food aficionados will be in their element. The tour package also includes a light lunch to be enjoyed at the acclaimed Stonyridge Vineyard, followed by a stop where you may partake in both beer and wine tasting.

The tour was organised very well and allowed us enough individual flexibility as well
The tour was organised very well and allowed us enough individual flexibility as well. First of all, we arrived at the pier in Auckland very early, and they offered for us to jump on the earlier ferry getting there! Perfect start! Our guide was there to greet us upon arrival. He himself was a reason just to go on the tour. Amazing personality, knowledgeable and entertaining as can be. The 3 wineries we visited, as well as the olive oil maker, were all very different from each other and all had their own charm. We decided to stick around for dinner on the island and took the ferry back later kn the evening. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who even remotely appreciates wine. I loved it and would definitely do it again!

Waiheke experience should certainly not be missed
Waiheke experience should certainly not be missed. Start the day with a short ferry ride, cup of coffee and enjoy Auckland from the top deck. Bus grabs you on arrival and the day begins. A very informed bus driver guides you around the island stopping at 4 different locations - wineries and olive grove. Enjoy the beautiful tastes of many different wines and olive oils followed by a relaxing lunch and friendly chat. Have a lot of free time at the end to enjoy a sneaky bottle or two by the waterside and take the ferry back when you choose. If you like wine/beer/food and various tasty olive oils this is for you.
