Great day in Marlborough! - Marlborough Wine Tours Review Our day with Marlborough Wine Tours was fantastic, made even better by our wonderful guide, Hamish, whose humor and deep wine knowledge enhanced the experience. The wineries we visited offered a great mix: Forrest Wines provided a fun and approachable introduction, Whitehaven showcased their exceptional Sauvignon Blancs, and St. Clair impressed with both its wines and an extensive lunch menu that catered to all tastes. Fromm’s boutique, organic approach was a highlight, and we wrapped up at Lawsons Dry Hills with their beautifully crafted aromatics. It’s worth noting that some wineries were more generous than others with their tastings and shared knowledge, but that’s to be expected on a tour like this. Overall, the balance of variety and quality made this a must-do for wine lovers visiting Marlborough!

Absolutely superb - We couldn't have hoped for anything more. Picked up by the lovely Lynley very promptly from our accommodation in Picton and after a couple more stops and a lovely commentary, we were enjoying our first tasting. 5 great wineries chosen (Forrest being a firm favourite!) and a beautiful lunch at Scott . We felt sad when the day came to an end. Thank you Lynley for making it such a smooth and relaxed experience (far superior to the wine tour we experienced near Queenstown). We would highly recommend.

Wine with Gavin 👍 - What a fantastic tour!! We were originally on a tour with 11 people and as we were a team of 4, Gavin our fabulous guide requested we come with his tour of 2 making it 6. This made our tour more personable. Gavin took us to 5 smaller wineries which were great. He sat with us and graced us with his stories and history. Great tastes were had at each winery and when we visited Huw at Forrest Winery the wine knowledge between Gavin and Huw exploded!!! Wow!! We had a lovely lunch Allan Scott winery too! Easily recommend this tour and hope if Gavin is ever in Perth we can treat him. 😃

Safety Satisfaction Winery Tour - Wonderful. Continuous New Discovery!! I've had lots of New Zealand wines but never heard of in Japan, and the history of each winery was interesting. It costs a lot of money, but I still drink it, so I'm glad I didn't have to worry about unnecessary things rather than renting a car or renting a bike. It was over budget to buy the bottle, well, it was adorable 😅 P.S. I felt Lynley was very considerate of me, even though I was not good at English.

Best day in Blenheim - Absolutely spectacular day of wine discovery. We were a small group of two couples with a wonderfully knowledgeable guide. The 5 wineries were all spectacular, lunch was exquisite at St Clair and it was a lot to take it. But am now enjoying one of the bottles I bought to celebrated the holidays. Oh and the chocolate place was out of this world. Totally recommend this full day tour

Lovely trip (hic!) - Keith, our guide and grower of grapes, was great and very knowledgeable. The vineyards chosen were lovely and the wines outstanding. The region is predominantly known for white wines, I’m more of a red drinker, but there were some white and rose favourites of the day. It was a small group which was perfect and everyone got on (I think the sharing of wine helped!). The day could have only been improved by a walk in the vineyard and shown how the vines are looked after and a look at the processing and methods of wine making. I’m not sure if any of the winery’s do this, Keith did a great job of explaining it.
