  • Three Matakana Coast vineyards have been carefully selected so that guests discover a range of vineyards from the highly polished to the unconventional.

  • Matakana Coast is known for not one notable wine, but for many boutique, award-winning wines – from Chardonnay to Docletto. You may discover a new variety or rediscover an old variety being made a new way.

  • Our knowledgable local guide introduces you to the wine maker themselves – enjoy discussing the craft with these passionate wine experts.

  • Meet local kiwis along the way. Enjoy stories of how their ventures were established and then flourished.

  • We offer theming and/or a flexible itinerary for private groups. Options include craft beer breweries, earlier departures, local activity add-ons like a scenic boat tour of the Hauraki Islands. Great for Corporate Xmas parties with goody bag gifts themed to the occasion.
