The Waiheke Island Trophy Wine Trail is an opportunity to meander through several vineyards, do some wine tasting and then have lunch at beautiful Casita Miro.  

There are three vineyards that are creating this vineyard walk.  Taste some wine at Obsidian vineyard, wander off through the vines along a defined trail to The Hay Paddock.  Taste some more wine.  Stagger - oops I mean meander off through the vines to Casita Miro for a delicious tapas lunch.   

You are picked up off the ferry and then we travel the stunning coastal areas of the Island.  I leave you at Obsidian vineyard for your first wine tasting and then pick you up after lunch at Casita Miro.  We continue on our way with more sightseeing, perhaps a visit to the local Olive Estate before you catch the ferry back to Auckland.

Cost: $89 p.p. for the day tour.  This is the open tour price so there may be a few others with us.

$150 p.p. for a private tour.

Both of these includes the cost of wine tasting at Obsidian and a standard tasting at the Hay Paddock.  Does not include the ferry or lunch costs.   Summer time only!

                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.
