Take home a complimentary bottle of fine Hawke’s Bay wine I would highly recommend using Marlborough Wine Tours to see and taste the local wines. Trina our driver was fantastic. She was knowledgable about the area and the wines. She was a load of fun that made the day even more enjoyable. We stopped at 6 wineries all of which where welcoming and interesting to listen to about their wines.... So pleased to hear you had a fanstaic day out and you enjoyed the wines and that Trinia helped to make your day too. Thank you to much for your recommendation we very much appreciate it. Went with 2 friends on the full day tour. We were collected from and dropped back to our hotel. Our guide, Catriona, was very knowledgeable and great fun. We were lucky enough to have the tour to ourselves so she created a tailor made tour to suit our tastes. We visited 6 wineries, including an organic vineyard and champagne winery,... So pleased to hear you had a lovely tour and enjoyed the cellar doors as well as the chocloate factory.
Thank you so much for the TripAdvisor write up and recommendation Please do enjoy the rest of your time over here in New Zealand Thanks to Andrew and Matty for a wonderful day, touring some of the regions wineries and then an awesome cruise where we indulged in the freshest mussels sipping on a sauvignon blanc. They were very informative and welcoming, couldn't have had a better day. Overall, this tour was amazing. We found our local driver very easily once we got off the port shuttles and because it was a smaller group (7 of us), but missing one couple made it that much easier to move from each winery. My wife and I both really wanted to do this tour b/c of our interest in wines... We are so pleased to hear you had an amazing tour and you enjoyed some of those wines you got to try. By the way the Boutique Chocolate place name is Makana. We are glad Kevin looked after you well and gave you time everywhere We hope you enjoy the rest of your cruise and the weather stays good to...
Not knowing much about wine, except that I like to drink it, I didn't know what to expect. Kevin and Tricia were the nicest people, and they had many good stories and incredible knowledge to go with the wines! I had a wonderful day and cannot recommend this tour enough. Thank you very much for your recommendation. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your tour and you enjoyed the wines that you had too. We hope you are enjoying the rest of your time here in New Zealand Same day booking - no problem! Katrina picked us up from our accommodation and with only 5 of us on tour we had a delightful day. We visited 5 wineries - all very different and interesting. Katrina was a great host sharing her knowledge and sense of humour in equally generous quantities. The wineries were incredibly generous with the tastings... We had previously been with Marlborough Wine Tours a couple of years ago.We had an amazing day with Kevin then and we had a Delightful Day with Tricia this Time too.
Everthing was catered for to a tee.We where picked up on time and Transported to This Amazing Region.Tasting some beautiful Sav .Pinot Gris.Pinot Noir and other varieties.Lunch was delicious at... Today's full day tour was even better than I could have imagined. Kevin picked me up bright and early to drop me to the boat trip.

It was great to meet you and to hear that you had a fantastic time with our Kevin. I will certainly let him know . Thankyou and enjoy the rest of your trip in New Zealand. And Give my Regards to Dorset. We were cruising around New Zealand on the Holland America ship Noordam. Previously we had always booked excursions through the ship and this was to be our first try at going it alone. We were a little apprehensive but we certainly didn't need to be.
