Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This tour was a lovely experience. We ended up being the only people on the tour, which meant Pamela could tailor it to our requests. Every stop was a treat with interesting wines and appropriate accompaniments, including a cheese and venison sausage tray and a chance to order from the menu for lunch. The final stop for ice cream with caramel whiskey pour over was really special.

Terrible! Paid in excess of $300 for a five hr tour. Value for money is a zero. Tour was a visit to three wineries. One of which was interested. No food offered. Had to buy own lunch at the end of tour. Area covered in the cramped mini bus was not far at all. Bus doesn’t run on rocket fuel. Terribly uncomfortable for elderly people with mobility issues.

Very disappointed for the $. One out of three wineries worth the visit. One not even expecting us (Spyglass). Crammed into a very small bus. No food til 2.00pm (at our own expense).
Very embarrassing for me having booked this tour for our group on the rave reviews. Could have had a much better (and cheaper) experience on the Hoo on Hop Off bus.

We took this tour with Pamela as our guide yesterday and we enjoyed every bit of it. They brought us to beautiful and different wineries and to an excellent restaurant for lunch that was also affordable. The group was only eight people which was a perfect number. Pamela was very friendly, caring and she was keeping us entertained along the way. We’d highly recommend to anyone in the area.

Pamela was wonderful and very accommodating. We visited three wineries including lunch and a tasting at Scott's. Pamela was very knowledgeable and able to work around all the closures on a Monday.

We thoroughly enjoyed our wine tour led by Pamela. Before leaving Picton, we did a photo stop at picturesque Karaka Point. Then we shopped for souvenirs at a very nice gift shop in Blenheim while Pamela purchased yummy snacks next door for us to nibble on. We next enjoyed wine tastings at Framingham Winery, Cloudy Bay, and Allan Scott, where we also had a very nice lunch at our own expense. On the return trip to Picton, we had the opportunity to sample and purchase delicious handmade treats at Makana Confections and then stopped briefly at Pollard Park and the Centennial Rose Gardens to admire the beautiful flowers. Pamela was a lovely guide, providing information about Picton and the Marlborough region and answering our many questions along the way. All in all, this was a very nice tour that we highly recommend.

We had a lovely day with Pamela, visiting four wineries and enjoying a super lunch. Pamela is a local and was very knowledgeable about her home town. She was happy to be flexible with our tour and the door to door service was much appreciated as we didn’t have a car. We thoroughly recommend this tour if you are looking for an informative and relaxing day out with a friendly local.

We had a wonderful time. Our guide Pamela was accommodating and very knowledgeable. She came up with a great itinerary, but allowed us to add in a few things. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

No, we were on a cruise. I have toured the South Island, and at least a week is needed to do so properly.
