This tour is FANTASTIC!!! Helen is a superb guide and her local knowledge of wines is second to none. Having never been on a wine tour before, and having no clue what on a earth we were doing, Helen spoke to us about the wines at a level we understood and also tailored the tour completely to our tastes and...

Helen was the perfect guide for our day in the vineyards. Helen asked what wines we liked and then tailored our day to visit the wineries with the wine we preferred. Helen also planned the day around the smaller wineries where we tasted and bought some great wines. We had a great lunch at Alan Scott Winery including wine tasting.... More

Helen brought a wealth of experience and knowledge to this well organized wine tour. Whilst watching she worked out what wines we liked and organized the tour to suit our tastes. The food at Allan Scott was exquisite. Thank you Helen for the personal tour it was great. Steve and Helen

Our hotel in Blenheim recommended this winery tour and it was amazing. The driver tailored our wineries to the tastes/preferences of the guests; she was extremely knowledgeable of region and all the wineries within. We learned a lot about wine production in the Marlborough area and visited a good variety of the wineries that lie within. I would rate this... More

Helen was great! She knew a lot about the Marborough region, about the wines and how they are produced. But most important... She has a good sense of humor, which made our trip! Thanks!

Wendy and Helen run this trip together. They are an excellent team that has a wealth of knowledge. They selected the best wineries based on the group preference. The tour is great for tasting and learning. We had a problem with our campervan and they helped ferry us back and forth and stayed with us until it was resolved. This... More

We booked this tour with Na Clachan from a recommendation in the NZ Lonely Planet. There are several operators that run these tours at $55pp. We are glad we booked it with Helen, she couldn't have been more friendly and her knowledge of wine and the region was very impressive. She has owned a winery herself for many years. The... More

Superb wine tour with Helen. We were lucky enough to squeeze in 4 wine tours when in NZ and Oz and this was definitely the favourite. Helen has a comfortable van, a great sense of humour and lovely manner with her guests and loads of wine knowledge. There were 8 folk on our tour, and the starting point was Helen... More
