Discover the flavours of Waiheke Island, a stunning Island of wine, on a vineyard tour with lunch included at an award-winning restaurant directly on the beach, you don't get to eat right across the beach every day! So Enjoy stunning views of the island's beaches, villages, and homes while learning about the local culture, people, history, geography, Maori Culture, and Waiheke produce. Try Waiheke wines from Rose, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, sparkling wine, and Syrah and Bordeaux blends. Catch a ferry from Auckland City Downtown to Matiatia Wharf on Waiheke Island. Your specialist Tour Guide will greet you at Matiatia Ferry Terminal at 1040, your Guide will be there with a welcome board with your name on it. You will visit 3 cellar doors on this tour and sample award-winning wines. Learn about the island’s unique conditions and the challenges winemakers must overcome. Finally, tuck into a gourmet lunch at an award-winning restaurant on the white-sand beach in Onetangi, on the north coast of Waiheke Island with incredible views out toward the Hauraki Gulf with a glass of wine to compliment your meal. This venue has incredible views of the beach, you can also go down and dip your toes in the ocean after lunch. You will see a lot of the island along the way and learn a lot about Waiheke, its people and our Culture. After lunch, we will continue to Onetangi Valley where we will stop and taste more award-winning wines. We will ensure that you make it back in time to catch the 4 pm ferry to Auckland City. However, if you wish to extend your stay on the Island (which is highly recommended as there is so much to see and do), we can drop you off at Oneroa Village where you can carry on, shopping, eating, drinking or even going to the beach so bring your togs. From there, it's just an 8-minute walk back to the ferry. The ferries run every half hour (in the summer) until midnight, so even having dinner on the island is a great idea. While we finish our services at 4 pm, we are happy to guide you and answer any questions you may have. These tours are shared tours with other guests, and a great way to meet new friends from all over the world.Includes
