Full description
Your wine guide will collect you near your Queenstown accommodation around 10am in a premium Mercedes vehicle, before traveling 30 minutes out to the spectacular Gibbston wine region. Throughout the day your will visit four tasting locations, tasting over 18 local wines. Our first location includes a tour and tasting at New Zealand’s famous Gibbston Valley underground wine cave. Here you will visit the vines before exploring their incredible wine cave and tasting their world-famous wines. From here we move on to Kinross, a fantastic tasting location that showcases wines from five different wine-makers, their cellar-door hosts will entertain and educate you on the wide history of the region. It is at Kinross where we allow time for lunch, and you can order off their varied delicious menu (lunch is paid for separately on the day). After lunch, we visit the beautiful tasting room at Mt Rosa Wines. Mt Rosa is an owner-operator cellar door, with single-label wines which are unique and hard to source around NZ and the world. The fourth location is a guide surprise, where we choose a unique cellar door for you and your group to enjoy the final wine tasting to end your day. At the end of the tour you can be dropped back near your accommodation around 4pm, or choose to go into Queenstown to enjoy your afternoon/evening. Travel in style with transfers in a premium Mercedes van, enjoy learning how to taste wine through on-board videos, and make use of our complimentary WiFi and Spotify playlists.

Great tour! Ana was a great guide and was flexible with us, allowing us extra time as needed. We got more tastings than advertised, and I loved the variety of wineries ranging from a little bigger (though still quaint compared to Napa!), then totally private tastings, finally a beautiful rustic winery. Views at each were stunning and tasted several delicious wines and the build up of historical wine data was also a great addition to the experience.

Highly recommend this tour and wanted to share our thanks to the wonderful Alia from AustrALIA - she was amazing! Bubbly, knowledgeable, personable, professional and couldn't have delivered a better experience! We were lucky to be part of a very small group, which made for an intimate experience. The van was lovely, with leather seats and flat screen TV with some fun and educational tour advice from the operators during the commute. The vineyards that we visited were a great mix of styles, and we even had a special stop on the way back for coffee and cake (my partner had a craving for sugar).

They picked us right outside our hotel which was perfect and the host Megan was absolutely amazing. She was very accommodating and knowledgable. She was really friendly and made the day a whole lot more fun. We had to be back in town by a deadline and she made it possible and a super easy going day.
