Our Favourites
Our most popular tour, you will visit three vineyards each offering a range of gourmet tastes to accompany their wines. Treats may include oysters straight from Te Matuku Bay, Waiheke olive oil and Waiheke honey.
Afterward, enjoy a delicious lunch, served family-style at the third vineyard overlooking the vines (dietaries catered for). From here you will have time to explore Oneroa Village where you can walk along Oneroa Beach,visit some of the local shops including Island Gelato, Island Grocer.
Due to seasonal availability, Te Matuku oysters may not be available but they will be substituted with another gourmet treat.
We recommend catching the 9am Fullers ferry or 9.15am Island Direct Ferry from Downtown Aucklandat the latest to make the tour start time.
The ferry to Waiheke can be very busy in summer. We recommend purchasing your ferry tickets online prior to travel and arriving at the ferry terminal in Auckland nice and early - especially in the busy summer months. The ferry is loaded on a first come first serve basis.
