The Regional Differences
We realise that all the options, regions, strange names etc can get a bit confusing when you’re not familiar with this area, so to help you select your tour, here is a brief explanation of the differences between the two main regions we visit, Auckland’s West Coast area (Kumeu, Huapai & Waimauku) and the East Coast’s Matakana. If you are comparing our tours to ones with similar sounding descriptions I think you’ll find our tours usually include more and offer better value for money!
We are Auckland’s original specialist wine tasting tour operator. All of our tours are personally guided by Auckland’s experienced wine tour guides. We offer you a range of small group, usually from 2 to 8 people, personalised Day & Half Day scenic wine tours. We also offer the widest selection of wineries across our tours to match your tastes and interests.
Our tours visit some of the region’s finest wineries & vineyards in the West Coast (Kumeu, Huapai & Waimauku) wine area, as well as the East Coast, Matakana region and take in some spectacular rural countryside & coastal scenery on the way.
As Auckland’s original specialist wine tour operator, we are happy to extend our services and experience to ‘Large Groups’… by that we mean a group of more than 11 people.
Getting out of the city and relaxing on a wine tasting tour is a great idea for an out-of-the-office ‘Team Building’ activity, social club outing, family celebration, anniversary, corporate function & conference activity.
West Coast Half Day Tours
Half Day tours can be run in the morning, mid-day or afternoon, lasting about 3 to 4 hours and visiting up to 3 vineyard wineries, accompanied by lunch.
If your company is looking for a corporate outing for your team or perhaps a tour or event to entertain clients, then contact us to see what small and large group options are available. Auckland’s Wine Trail Tours have been organising corporate wine tours & events for the last 15 years.
