4.00Efficient, well organised and friendly guide. Good variety of stops. Comfortable bus, delicious lunch
Read meeting point info carefully

4.00Beautiful island, scenic views, great lunch. Rating wine is hard because everyone's palate is different. A note to the tour operator and viator. I suggest stating very clearly in the meeting point section that the QR code on the viator ticket includes the ferry ride to the island. And that tour guests will meet the guide on the island and not at the Quay Terminal. The information is available, yet you have to drill down to retrieve it.
Good vibes on the island

3.00Big bus with 29 people. I have been on other smaller group tours that I preferred. Driver was excellent but just average tour. I was here 8 yrs ago with small group. You get to see more with small group. Two of the wineries were just average. No stop for Manuka honey. Mubrick winery was the best

5.00Nicola was fabulous! This was such a fun excursion absolutely worth every penny. I had no idea about this island - the trip alone to visit is worth it. And then trying delicious wine, olive oil, and have a delicious lunch was icing on the cake. This is a great excursion (even with some rain) to spend a day
Fun tour but horrible listing.

- Review from Viator
3.00Guide and tour were great but coordination and communications for the tour were horrible. The listing doesn't say that the ferry fare is included or where to meet the guide. The fare IS included, and you don't meet the guide until you get off the ferry in Waiheke. Several people on the tour either paid separately for the ferry, took the wrong one or missed it entirely looking for the guide in Auckland.
