The booked winetour took me to 4 different wineries, one not open to public . Our tour- guide Darlene presented the NZ wines and the winemaking in a very informative way, and I learned a lot. It was an outstanding experience. Thanks again for all your efforts- Darlene.

It was a very lovely tour, with a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. I had an excellent day and would recommend this tour to everyone.

Mike was a great tour guide and we had an awesome group that we met on the tour. Highly recommend. He listened to our likes and took us to other vineyards to accommodate our tastes.

Our tour guide Sue, was amazing. She had a wealth of knowledge about the history of the wineries and laughed along with our warped sense of humour. Sue also went the extra mile for us and dropped us off in the city centre.

Best part of the this trip was the fact that we had Paula as our guide. Really awesome and friendly lady that made sure we were enjoying ourselves! Tasted a wide variety of wine, roughly 20-ish from 4 different winery

Our experience with Marlborough Wine Tours was exceptional. During the 6-hour tour we visited 4 wineries, one which included a delicious lunch. The day was extremely well organized and our tour guide (Paula) was very knowledgeable of the wineries in the area and local sites. Paula also managed to squeeze in a quick visit to the chocolate factory, which was an added bonus. Having a small group of 10 meant we got to know other passengers, with whom we had loads of laughs and fun. This is our third tour with Marlborough Wine Tours, and we happily recommend them for a great experience at a very reasonable price to taste some great wines in the region.

We had a great day with Pamela on our Piston wine tasting excursion. Everything was as advertised and Pamela was a knowledgeable guide. Definitely recommend!

Pamela was wonderful and very accommodating. We visited three wineries including lunch and a tasting at Scott's. Pamela was very knowledgeable and able to work around all the closures on a Monday.

Staying at Blenheim we decided to go on this tour as it had great reviews.We were not disappointed.The staff from Mark the coach drive, Nick the boat captain plus all the other people involved were so hospitable and welcoming.Being NY day, our travel group was only 13 but expanded to 21 when we got up the boat sector of the day.Picked up at our Blenheim address on time, Mark gave us commentary as we headed off to our first two vineyard stops.Wine tasting at 1030am was a bit early for me personally, but we had top experiences at both Cloudy Bay and St Clair vineyards.After the wine tasting we headed off to Picton to meet the boat, spend approximately 45min exploring Picton and enjoying our on board BBQ lunch.After lunch we headed off into the calm waters of Queen Charlotte sound for 3+ hours of exploring including venturing into some of the 1100 bays in these soundsWhile in one of the bays we got served up freshly cooked mussels and local salmon. Plus a glass of wine. The food was unbelievably good, especially the mussels, which seemed to be in endless supply. But the guest eventually won that battle.Great commentary and an enjoyable afternoon on the water. After which we all got transferred back to our accommodation.Highly recommended.

What an amazing weekend of tours and wining and dining with Marlborough Tours our group of 25 enjoyed this weekend - our bus driver Chris was great at sharing his knowledge of local places of interest, Cougar boat tours took us to Punga Lodge where we enjoyed a fabulous lunch and then on to Omaka for tour and a wonderful catered three course dinner - supurb. Day two he collected us and back to Omaka for a private tour of the aeroplane exhibits from WW1 and WW2 - what a fabulous display. Then off to Wither Hills Yineyard for a sumptuous 3 course wines match lunch - just a perfect finish to our reunion weekend - thanks to you all - amazing staff and service L and P Parsons Christchurch

This tour was fantastic! Our guide was so informative, guide was approachable and taught us lots about wine! She has a fantastic connection with the wineries and with this we received special treatment and we went to the best locations. Such an enjoyable day and have great memories!

We were collected from our accommodation near Blenheim by Cliff. He was on time and greeted us cheerfully and with a smile. There were only the two of us and so having our own personal chauffeur and guide made the trip extra special. Cliff was very chatty and as he lived locally was able to pass on his knowledge of the area and its landmarks. At each cellar door we felt relaxed and unhurried, the staff presenting, were knowledgeable and able to answer any questions we had about each wine. There was no pressure to buy. We ate lunch at a winery where we weren’t tasting the wine, it consisted of a delicious meat and cheese platter and was once again relaxed and most enjoyable. Finally Cliff took us to a boutique chocolate maker, we were able to see the chocolates being made and purchase some if we wanted to. Cliff drooped us back at our accommodation at around 4pm, tired but feeling that we had had a busy but very interesting day. If you have the opportunity spend some time on one of these tours, you will learn a lot about wine and the beautiful area around Blenheim.
