Great news Tasha. Going again! See you in Marlborough or Queenstown. Thanks for the review.
Great fun and awesome driver
Thanks Hayley.
Great drivers , we did everything we wanted. Lore and Larry were superstars.. offered advice and music ‘ to get the party started’
Thanks very much for the review Jason. Our drivers are a big part of the experience and we're so pleased you got that.
The Half Day tour was just perfect! We managed to plan it well so we were able to get to 4 wineries (Akarua, Amisfield, Wet Jacket & Gibbston Valley). The buses we’re pretty much bang on time each stop which was fantastic as the weather wasn’t the best. We had amazing drivers who had all the right information to help us plan the day accordingly. We would 100% do this tour again and visit several other wineries and probably some of the same again too. Absolutely recommend this to all!!
Hello Chelsea, Thank you very much for your fantastic review we look forward to seeing you again. Thanks Hop on hop off Wine tours
