Great experience - Linda was great! Couple intimate vineyards that felt like you were getting a great heartbeat of the island and what it stood for. Would definitely recommend and do it again!

A genuine local experience - The Wine Tasting Company truly stands out! From the very first WhatsApp message — clear, prompt, and professional — you know you’re in great hands. They pick you up right at the ferry, on time, with a genuine smile, an immaculate van, and an energy that sets the tone for the entire day. What makes it exceptional isn’t just the organization, but the authenticity. This is a truly local experience: the team lives on the island, is deeply passionate about wine, and has connections with the best sommeliers and wineries. Everything feels personal, curated, and thoughtfully designed around you. Five stars only because that’s the maximum allowed — but it’s a 10/10 experience.

Fantastic Small Group Wine Tour - Dantastic day spent with our guide and chauffeur, Sam. He grew up and lives on Waiheke. (Also a wine aficionado.) Three great wineries visited and a 100+ minute lunch (not included in the fee). I most strongly recommend this tour.

Absolutely fantastic day on Waiheke - What a great day! Cami was awesome from start to finish. She told us about the Island and took us to some really excellent wineries starting with Postage Stamp and ending with a fun time with Jake at Mudbrick. We got to try some really excellent wines along the way and stopped for lunch at Stoney ridge winery. Also excellent. Even the weather was perfect after a slightly damp start in Auckland.

Margot was Amazing! - We had the pleasure of being guided by Margot who was a wonderful tour guide. She was kind, knowledgeable and made the entire tour a fun experience for us. We were able to stop in the village briefly to explore before our first tasting and Margot provided fun and interesting facts about New Zealand, Auckland and Waiheke. She shared great information about the history and culture of the country throughout the tour and kept us engaged throughout. We had an amazing time and would love to return for another tour some day!

Must Do Winery Tour on Waiheke - Margot was amazing from start to finish, amazing winery’s, gorgeous food - even if the view wasn’t the best due to the huge amount of rain on the day. Overall day was amazing and a great way to spend a mother and daughter day out sipping fine wine and eating gorgeous food. Thank you team.

Visiting 3 Waiheke wineries( two good, one bad). - Our tour guide Dean was great, very attentive and knowledgeable. He was waiting for us as we came out of the ferry and was with us the whole day. The two first wineries we visited were great ( Postal Stamp and Awaroa). They were small boutique wineries, that was what we were expecting, their wines were good and the hostesses very kind. Lunch was also great and in a most beautiful setting. The third and last winery we visited ( Cableway) left a lot to be desired. The location of the winery is great with the most beautiful view, but the service was horrible. They squeezed the 11 of us in a small corner and the hostess was in such a hurry that we didn’t have time even to see what wine she was pouring. I don’t recommend the visit to this winery in particular. Everything else was great.
