What to Expect on the Sip Happens Waiheke Experience
This tour includes visits to three local venues, typically wineries, with the option to replace one wine tasting with a beer flight at a brewery. Guests can expect around 10 to 15 individual wine tastings across the day, depending on the venues visited. Locations vary based on availability and may include Mudbrick, Te Motu, Tantalus Estate, Stonyridge, Casita Miro, Awaroa, Wild on Waiheke and others.
Lunch time is built into the itinerary, with reservations organised at a vineyard or beachside restaurant. While lunch is not included in the tour price, guides ensure the timing and location fit smoothly into the day. Transport between venues is provided, allowing guests to enjoy tastings without worrying about logistics.
