    Driven around by very knowledgeable guide Sam with six others and visited four wineries in a half day tour.

    Also taken to a chocolate factory as an added bonus. Lots of tastings so great option if you do not want to drive yourself or cycle.

    Only a short time at the wineries, it felt a bit rushed.

    A brilliant day was spent in the Marlborough wine region.

    I knew it would be difficult to impress a group of 'wine-o's' from South Australia but you did it. We were fortunate enough to have the wonderful Dean as our tour guide and he was excellent; full of mischief but very informative about the local area and especially the wine industry. There was even an opportunity for some shopping! A great day out, thank you.

    We did a wine tour in a small group.

    It was very relaxed and flexible. The small group made it feel like we had individualised service and it didn't feel like we were being shoehorned around in a big tourist group.
