Far End of Waiheke Wine Tour in Electric Vans: Man O' War, Gin and Private Guide
Ratings collected by Viator and Tripadvisor
Waiheke IslandThe Far End tour is the operator's exclusive route to a remote part of Waiheke that most people miss. It has more variety in venues and places to explore than the usual circuit. A private guide leads the day and knows the local history, the hidden corners and the wine. Up to 12 wine tastings at 3 top vineyards are included. The day lasts 4 hours of the 5, with a level of privacy and attention that traditional group tours do not give.
What's included
- Private transportation
- 12 wine tastings at top-3 vineyards of Waiheke Island (Minimum drinking age is 18)
- Guided Tour with Passionate Commentary along the way
