As a first-time visitor to the stunning landscapes of New Zealand, I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction than the hop on hop off wine tour! From start to finish, it was an extraordinary experience, breathtaking vineyards, historical museums and cheerful staff who truly elevated the day.
Despite the tour being an extremely busy day with a good number of guests, the staff managed to keep everything running as smoothly as possible. I really enjoyed visiting the Marlborough Wine Museum, which gave me a good introduction to New Zealand's wine industry. The Omaka Classic Car and Aviation Center is a definitive must-go to for people like me. If you like chocolate, Manaka confections is a good place to check out as well.
What really stood out was the staff's unwavering cheerfulness and enthusiasm. They were knowledgeable about the area’s history and culture. It felt like we were on a fun adventure with friends rather than just a tour group.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting New Zealand who appreciates good wine and friendly faces. The combination of spectacular scenery, quality wines, and the genuine warmth of the staff made this a trip I will cherish for years to come. I can’t wait to come back and do it all over again! Cheers to the wonderful people who made this experience truly memorable!
Who knew I would fall in love with a Pinot Noir I had never tried before?!
