First Class Wine Tours,
Marlborough

A personalised tour includes a selection of wineries, with some variety and unique qualities, a good picnic spot or restaurant, and some regional and winery history, including a bit of friendly gossip.

We feel that it is by listening to our clients that we can best provide the type of tours that Marlborough are so capable of. And of course, we also are happy to guide you in finding the best souvenir of all, a bottle, or a case or two of wine, along with help getting it home safely for you to enjoy along with the memories.

We also own a vineyard and cellar door and can explain the process from vine growing to harvesting to wine making. You can have an unrestricted stroll through our vineyard Gibson Bridge Vineyard

Wine Tours are our specialty. Not only because we live in the middle of the vineyards, in the Marlborough region ranked number one for it white wines, but also because we have many wine makers as friends.
