We had a lovely day out with John today visiting some very nice wineries he picked out. Great communication on emails as were on a cruise ship at the time to arrange things and welcomed at the pier from the ferry from Auckland and into a nice comfortable van/ people mover. Thanks John, we all had a great time!

11/10 experience with Waiheke Wine Trips. If you want to truly experience the magic of Waiheke, this private tour is the way to do it. Completely tailored to your preferences, you’re driven around this magnificent island taking in stunning beach coves, beautiful architecture, and discovering off-the-beaten-track wineries, olive oil tastings and decadent food along the way. A huge thank you to John — the consummate professional. Knowledgeable, warm and endlessly accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. An unforgettable day and a must-do for anyone visiting Waiheke.

John was an excellent, cheerful, and patient driver for us (important with a group of people drinking wine all day), and he took us all over the island to some of our favorite old spots and some new favorites as well: Mudbrick, Tantalus/Alibi, Waiheke Distilling Co (not to be missed!), Man O’ War, and Bistro Allpress. Will absolutely call John and Waiheke Wine Trips again next time we are on the island!

My husband and I had a great afternoon wine tasting with John as our guide. John was very friendly and informative about the island and took us to great vineyards and to Mudbrick for dinner. Definitely recommend this wine tour.
