                Sightseeing & Wine Tasting Tour

Sightseeing: to me this means just that...Seeing the sights!     I travel to a lot of isolated bays and inlets so you experience parts of Waiheke not offered by any other operator.  Personalizing your tour so you can have a day to remember.

Winetasting: Let me take you to my favorite vineyards.  They are the smaller, boutique and organic vineyards where the owners are usually the ones giving the tasting.  Madly passionate about what they grow, the experience is something special.

You catch the ferry departing downtown Auckland at 10am and I meet you here on Waiheke Island at 10.35am.  From there we begin our day.....I tailor your day to suit your interests.  Really! No hidden time agendas, flexibility in where we go and how long we stay remains in your hands.

My points of difference are:

* Tailor your tour to suit your interests.

* No big coaches with 20 or so other people.

* Completely flexible in where we go and how long we stay.

* I visit isolated bays and inlets.

* I can cater for families and children.
