My hotel recommended this tour as being one of the best, so I booked it despite it being $20 more expensive than a similar tour offered by Paradise Safaris. The weather on the day that I went on the tour was rather warm, and this could really be felt in the 4WD vehicle which was not air-conditioned. Further, with 3... more

We found this tour mis-leading and disappointing-although felt badly for feeling that way. The tour guide was really nice and very enthusiastic. We choose this tour because it was all day and we wanted to see as much as we possibly could. At a pricey $299/NZ/person it was a real splurge for us-but we thought we were in for an... more

Management response from
Hobbitguide, Guide on the tour

As the guide on this tour I wish to make clear that there is absolutely no arrangement with the vineyard mentioned. I also guide a wine tasting tour and this is my personal favourite. It is very close to a LOTR location. If the tour group size is small I sometimes include a 15 min visit to this vineyard as...
