Thanks so much to Joe for...

Published on Jan, 2025

Thanks so much to Joe for this super fun and educational experience. My family loved spending the day learning from him about Māori history and culture while moving among four wine experiences at Rippon, Maude, Cork and Cap, and Misha's. Our favorite wines were from Maude, while the charcuterie boards for lunch at Cork and Cap were among the best we've ever had with delicious and diverse offerings not usually seen on them, and we loved hearing both Joe's personal story with his Māori heritage along with the earlier history of the Māori on what's now New Zealand. This way of experiencing New Zealand is really meaningful, thank you!

Incredible Experience

Amazing day for culture and wine

Can't recommend this enough. Joe is a great guide and we learnt so much about Maori culture. And the wines! You cannot go wrong doing this tour

Amazing afternoon immersed in culture and wine!

Published on Nov, 2024

This wine tour was a highlight to our NZ vacation! Joe was amazing, engaging, and very informative. He helped us have a deeper appreciation for and understanding of the Māori culture. All the wineries were outstanding, especially the hosts at each location. We loved how each one was intimate and personal, helping us learn about wine making in the region. Definitely book this tour!

Maori experience with fine wines and wonderful guide

Published on May, 2024

This was the most amazing experience. We learned about Maori culture from the moment we were greeted at our hotel. We were told about the wooden spear and all it's designs and how it was used. Along the way we were told how the area around Wanaka was settled. The three wineries were beautiful with very tasty wines of many types. The tastings were informative and intimate. On the last stop, we were treated with a spread of crackers, savory jam, pate, and artisanal cheeses. I can highly recommend this tour to a everyone.
