Top Auckland Food Tours - page 3

Our guide, Jeannine, did a good job of keeping the tour on time and providing interesting commentary, and the lunch was amazing! Our driver also provided interesting information about the Maori culture, and communication with the tour provider through Viator was prompt and clear. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Michael met us right on time at the pickup point. He accompanied us all through the tour on the short ferry ride to Devonport and up to Mount Victoria. The food stops were excellent consisting of steamed mussels, local fish and chips, and finally gelato! Michael is a very pleasant young man and made the tour very enjoyable. Would highly recommend this tour to Devonport!

This was an Amazing experience. The guides were super knowledgeable about the location, and especially the sailing. The dinner was fantastic! Probably the best part for us was when my adult step-daughter got to steer the boat under sail; she was so excited, and now wants to learn how to sail,

This tour was a great experience. The ferry ride views were stunning - able to view Auckland's harbour in all directions not to mention being greeted with OJ & Sparkling Wine!. The visit to three wineries was a plus with our fave being Mudbrick - absolutely gorgeous grounds and views were amazing. Darwin gave a lovely wine presentation. Our driver was well versed in all things Waiheke. The meal at Batch Winery was superb - wasn't expecting a full course dinner but it was very nice. Lovely grounds and stunning views too! Highly recommend.!

John was absolutely amazing! He was an extremely knowledgeable guide!! He had extensive knowledge of all of the wineries in the area. Our conversations with him were so informative. Do not hesitate to book an excursion with John! We had a fantastic day. Thank you John!

4 wineries visited along with other noteworthy areas of interest outside of Auckland showing us the beauty of the coastline and local birds. Wineries well chosen. Meredith (our guide) very knowledgeable and able to answer all questions. She was always on time and went out of her way to make it a meaningful day. The day was so informative and fun. Skipping this would have been a mistake.

BOOK THIS TOUR or at least a tour with THIS tour guide/company!!! It was such a blast, the day really flew by. The wineries were stunning and tasteful wines - curated tasting to our palates and a little outside of our "taste bud box" as well. We visited Soljans first. Denise was delightful sharing her knowledge and family history. Hearing of 5 generations and the family ties was heartwarming and I think, came through in the beauty of their wines & port. Oh the port! Yummy! I took a whole bottle home 🤭. I like the little gift shop as well - very reasonable priced. We then visited a black sand beach and could take enough photos of the birds (gannet). Followed by visiting Westbrook winery - with stunning scenery /vineyard. It was rainning so we sat inside which was pretty and cozy as well. Not to mention the step by step tasting session. Another lovely set of 5 wines & fabulous food menu (charcuterie, pizzas, & more). They even allowed us to try some grapes off the vine on our way out. I've saved the best for last, if you've read this far.. rhe tour guide, John, has an astounding depth of wine knowledge! I can't even begin to tell his story - that is for him to tell, so I beg you to ask him because it is truly beyond fascinating! He could go deep into the science or worldly experiences or explain why certain notes appear in a wine due to the growing process. Not to mention he can explain things in simple terms too if needed 😊 I am beyond grateful to have taken this tour and highly recommend it, if you can! Cheers & enjoy!!!

From the lovely staff to the super clean boat, to the helpful friendly guides, a really good day out. The island is absolutely beautiful and the wildlife abundant. Neil, our guide was informative and friendly. My only suggestion would be to stay overnight if you can, because one day trip just isn’t long enough to see everything. A cracking spot and pretty good value for money. Oh and don’t forget your packed lunch :)
