I really enjoyed this Hop-On Hop-Off Tour. This is a great way to visit Arrowtown and amazing vineyards and gin distilleries in the area. You can also do or watch bungy jumps. The tour guides were friendly and had interesting facts about the local area. I recommend this tour. (NB - If anyone is travelling solo, there is one vineyard that I would AVOID - The Church Cellar Door. They would not allow me to do wine tasting because I was by myself. The staff were so rude that I ended up walking to another vineyard! I had wonderful service at Kinross - so recommend checking out that vineyard.)
Hello Rowena, We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring Arrowtown, the vineyards, and gin distilleries. It's great to know that our tour guides provided you with interesting facts and friendly service. We hope to welcome you back on another adventure soon! Warm Regards Hop on Hop off Team
Great day out. The guides were super friendly and knowledgeable. The bus was comfortable. We loved the 4 venues we stopped at. Arrowtown is a must. .the buses were on time and easy to find locations. Absolutely worth the money. I would recommend doing 2 days if you want to really see and taste more.
Hi Paula, Thank you for your amazing review! We are glad you had a comfortable journey during your tour and enjoyed your time. The HoHo Team
Really enjoyed the day out on the hop on, hop off bus tour. The two drivers that were on were very knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely recommend this tour.
Thank you for your kind words and great review! The HoHo Team
Went on this tour late in my trip, but still had a blast. Our tour host was absolutely amazing. made many jokes and explained everything, from the different wineries to the locations we passed. My mother and I had a slight issue with an owner of one of the wineries and when we mentioned this to our tour guide, while we were at our second stop, he reached out to his manager (i believe it was his manager, it was definitely someone higher up). She then reached out to us to explain and apologise on behalf of the winery. She did not have to do this by the way. we were very thankful for her reaching out and talking to us. When we got back on the bus, the tour guide also made sure that his manager had spoken with us and apologised for the inconvenience. They were all absolutely wonderful and made us feel extremely welcome, I would 100% go on this tour again and 100% recommend this tour for EVERYONE.
Thank you very much for this detailed review. We aim to try and go above and beyond for our customers and I am glad we were able to overcome these issues faced during your tour and apologies on behalf for any trouble. We hope to see you again soon! Many thanks, The HoHo Team
