Marlborough's Famous Wine Tour - 7 hours

Visit the world famous Marlborough region to experience stunning wines in equally stunning surroundings. VERY HIGHLY RATED.

Visit the world famous Marlborough region to experience stunning wines in equally stunning surroundings. VERY HIGHLY RATED.

Discover the heart of New Zealand’s wine revolution on our Marlborough Wine Tour! In the 1970s, Marlborough transformed winemaking with innovative techniques borrowed from the dairy industry, creating world-renowned Sauvignon Blanc and other delicious varieties.

Today, Marlborough boasts 80% of New Zealand’s vineyard area. Its unique climate, with hot sunny days and cool nights, extends the ripening period, making it a premier wine-producing region.

The tour begins with a pick-up from your Nelson accommodation. Enjoy a scenic drive east to Marlborough, taking in the sights along the way.

Once in Marlborough, we’ll visit four carefully selected vineyard cellar doors, each offering a unique style and atmosphere. Your guide will ensure you experience some of the best wines Marlborough has to offer.

Lunch will be at a delightful spot that can accommodate any dietary needs. Afterwards, you have the option to visit the Makana Boutique Chocolate Factory for a sweet treat and a behind-the-scenes look at chocolate making.

We'll return to Nelson, concluding a fantastic day exploring the Wairau Plains and Southern Valleys.

Join us for an unforgettable journey through Marlborough’s wine country!
