Auckland’s Flavours of our City Food Walk, a 3-hour small-group tasting stroll with artisan bites, ice cream, and a wine or beer finish.
“Lot of uphill walking so if you have mobility issues make sure you’re capable of doing uphill waking.”
5.5-hour Waiheke food and wine tour with boutique tastings, olive oil, seasonal oysters, family-style lunch, and a whisky or wine stop.
“My wife and I were very pleased with this tour. Our guide/driver was very knowledgeable, the tour group size was perfect, the wineries were the right size to allow discussion and the lunch was enjoyed by all.”
Waiheke Island gourmet wine tour with Te Matuku oysters, olive oil tastings, three vineyards, and a family-style platter lunch.
“Really well organised and Pau made it so enjoyable. Loved the little anecdotes about living in Waiheke and recommendations of places to eat and stay with future visits etc”
Half-day Waiheke wine tour with tastings at Cable Bay, Stonyridge, and more, plus a gourmet lunch at Onetangi Beach.
“We had a awesome bus driver who engaged really well with us and everyone on the bus told us interesting information about the island and wineries and also dropped us to a restaurant he recommended after the tour that was amazing”
A 3-hour Auckland CBD walking food tour with local cheeses, Kiwi classics, chocolate, and history, guided by top local food storytellers.
“We have been on several food tours around the world and given this one 5 stars! Great guide and great selection of foods/drinks to try!”
Taste of Waiheke Island from Auckland, with ferry, private coach, olive oil and vineyard tastings, plus a two-course lunch.
“There were crowds at the Auckland pier, as 2 cruise liners were docked. However, having booked the tour, you go on a different smaller ferry which was much better. Kai met us and she was superb, having lived on Waiheke for 40 years. She knew how it used to be, who owned what, and was entertaining. All of our stops were great, the views helped. Really enjoyed the tour and would recommend it. Husband is coeliac, and I only booked the day before, but his diet was easily catered for. Thank you.”
Tastebud Tour Auckland: small-group minivan food and wine tastings, morning tea, lunch, fish market, and Mt Eden views.
“Not a typical food tour where you walk around the city and sample different foods at the markets or restaurants. I felt like we spend most of our time driving around rather than eating. We also skipped one food stop because some of the people wanted a ride to another drop-off location.”
A small-group 3-hour Auckland CBD food walk with seafood, meat and cheese bites, Hokey Pokey ice cream, plus local history.
“My wife and I had a great time learning about the Auckland food scene with Liz. She took us to some off-the-beaten path places that were excellent. She also threw in detour stops to make sure we checked off some New Zealand favorites. It was a great way to spend the day and learn about other things to do in Auckland as well.”
Taste Segway in Devonport, Auckland. Get one-on-one training, ride the waterfront to Cheltenham Beach, and explore Victorian streets.
“First time on a Segway but surprisingly easy to ride! Beautiful day and a beautiful town. Our guide was phenomenal, one of our best travel experiences ever!”
Small-group Waiheke tasting tour with lunch: 5 wines at Casita Miro, Allpress olive oil, and beer or spirits at The Heke.
“Tour was fun and got to see a good amount of the island and learn lots. Oliver was great, knowledgeable and funny and really took care of everyone during the tour. Highly recommend if you’re looking for some wine and good time while on Waiheke!”
