Our Hop and Grape Tour was a great success.
We visited several of the smaller producers as well as some of those that we've known (and enjoyed) for years. We enjoyed a good lunch in the private room at Allan Scott. Cameron led the the tour and ably dealt with all of our questions. Several of the tastings provided a new insight on Marlborough wines. Worth travelling half way round the world for this! Highly recommended to anyone with an interest in wine and wine making. Thanks Cam!
Thanks Mike! Really appreciate the great review. I'm so pleased we could make it a memorable day. Hopefully you can find your way back to Marlborough one day and we can visit some new vineyards and wineries. Warm regards, Cam

We have done several winery tours over the past few years in both New Zealand and Australia, but our experience with Hop n Grape Tours was truly memorable.
Our tour guide, Darlene, was an absolute wealth of knowledge who not only provided insight about winemaking and wine tasting, she was also able to answer the many questions we asked her. We had a really personal experience and enjoyed lots of conversation with her. She always offered to take photos of us and ensured that we had everything we needed to enjoy our day. Thank you Darlene!
Hi Laura, thank you so much for taking your time to write such a wonderful review. Darlene is a brilliant tour guide. As she has a background working in the winery she has great knowledge and is great at entertaining on the tour. She also knows all the best wineries in Marlborough. Thanks again. We hope to see you again sometime. Warm regards, Cameron. Hop n Grape

BEST TOUR EVER!!!
WOW A friend told me about this tour and said it was amazing...but it still Exceeded all our Expectations! We have done loads of wine tours in NZ and around the world but this was without question the BEST Wine tour we have ever done. The tour guide Cam is a winemaker and has the keys to a winery, where you get a private behind the scenes tasting to start your day. I though I knew a bit about wine, but now have a much clearer understanding thanks to Cam. Went to about 5 wineries, which were all sensational selections (choose to suit our preferences) the little lunch spot was the best food we have had in NZ. We even stopped at the Chocolate factory for a Chocolate tasting on the way home. Definitely Choose this tour! Its the Best!
Thanks Ben, Cheers for taking the time to write a review. We are a new business that prides ourselves on being better, offering more and general being awesome, so we are pleased you enjoyed. It was a pleasure to meet you and I hope to see you again some day. Cheers Cam
