Itinéraire
Lake Hayes est un magnifique lac situé à seulement 15 minutes en voiture du centre-ville de Queenstown en direction d'Arrowtown. Le lac réfléchissant offre une vue panoramique et pittoresque sur les montagnes environnantes toute la promenade.
Berceau du saut à la bonde commercial, l'AJ Hackett Bungy Kawarau Bungy Centre est une destination légendaire pour les amateurs d'aventure visitant Queenstown.
En tant que pionniers de la région viticole de Central Otago, Gibbston Valley Winery fabrique à la main des vins haut de gamme depuis plus de trois décennies
Bannockburn est une petite ville minière d'or historique située à l'extérieur de Cromwell dans le centre d'Otago. La région a d'abord été connue comme un riche champ d'or alluvionnaire et a été largement exploitée dans les années 1860.
Cromwell se trouve à la jonction des rivières Kawarau et Clutha, au cœur de Central Otago, une destination où l'histoire de la ruée vers l'or rencontre des lacs chatoyants, des vignobles de classe mondiale et des paysages montagneux largement ouverts.
Située sur les rives du lac Dunstan, cette attraction patrimoniale unique est un mélange de bâtiments originaux et reconstruits de l'ancienne rue principale de la ville aurifère de Cromwell, dans les années 1860.
Gibbston, la vallée des vignes, abrite certains des plus vieux vignobles de la région nichés entre des montagnes de schiste d'une beauté accidentée.
Niché dans une vallée fluviale entourée de montagnes, Arrowtown (Kā-Muriwai), une charmante ville d'orpaillage créée en 1862, riche en beauté naturelle, histoire et culture.

This was lots of fun, mostly good wine and great food. Met some friendly and funny people on the trip too.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, it really means a lot to us! We are very pleased you enjoyed wine touring with Appellation!
This is the second time I have done a wine tour with Appellation Wine Tours, the last time being in 2022 and I had the best time on both occasions. Last time I was on my own and they ensured I was included and felt comfortable, and I enjoyed it so much I had to come again and bring my fiance this time. It’s great that they also mix up the wineries so I tried some different venues this time around. Couldn’t be happier with the value of the day & the terrific customer service overall. I bought a beanie a couple of days before & unfortunately dropped it after our lunch sitting - Martin not only called the venue to ask them to keep it safe for us, the drivers dropped it back to our hotel a day later. It’s this level of attention & care that ensures people will continue to enjoy your tours for a long time to come. Martin was a wonderful guide with a depth of a local knowledge which kept the whole group entertained & interested throughout the day. He’s a a credit to your organisation. Thanks again mate.
Hello Kristy, We were thrilled to read your lovely review. It is so lovely to hear that you had a great time touring with us in 2022 solo, and again in 2026 with your fiance. It is our pleasure to help return the beanie hat to you - we work with wonderful venues who all pitch in to make every part of the experience as smooth as it can be. We strive to provide personalised customer care so its really great to know you valued this. We look forward to welcoming you back again for a third Appellation tour in the future. Many thanks, Jade

A great adventure with like minded people who love food & wine. All wineries were excellent, some with great nibbles. Heaps of wine to drink! Excellent food for lunch. I highly recommend this adventure. I will be doing it again.

We really enjoyed our food and wine tour. The pick up and drop off are super convenient. We had a great group of 7 other tourists on our tour and the lunch was so delicious. Our guide, Graeme, shared great information and history about all of the wineries and the region.
Thank you for your great review! We are so glad you enjoyed your tour with Craig, and that you had a good group to share the experience with. We hope to welcome you back to Queenstown again in the future!

I was extremely lucky to share this tour with just another couple from Singapore last Wednesday, 7 May, and the tour ran almost like a private tour with four winery tastings- Gibbston Valley, Akroa, Stoker Room and Mt Rosa! Diana was our guide and driver for the tour. She made arrangements with the wineries based on our tasting palettes. Two of us loved sweet but not dry wines. At Gibbston wineries, we got to taste an additional Late Harvest Riesling (2021), filled with notes of apricot and honey which we liked so much that we each bought a bottle! The very first highlight of the tour was a rich, delectable lunch of barrel oak smoked venison, duck, salmon, and chicken (I got my dietary preferences sorted, whereas the other couple tasted pork and beef), paired with wine tastings. As we concluded our lunch at the Stoker Room, Diana walked us over next door to Misha's vineyard, where the owners hosted us for a quick sample of their Limelight Riesling (2023), and The Cadenza Late Harvest Gewúrztstramer (2025). Both wines were lovely. Needless to say I favoured the latter for its sweetness and hints of cantaloupe. I ordered a bottle online a day after touching down back in Singapore. Diana also made sufficient time provisions for us to visit Arrowtown. The colours of Arrowtown were simply stunning. Walking down the streets of Arrowtown felt like a page out of a romance movie. Needless to say, having a sweet tooth, the Remarkables Sweet Shop filled my cravings of fudge and chocolates. Definitely don't miss this tour when you are in Queenstown.
Thank you so much for your incredible and detailed review! We’re delighted you had such a special experience and that the small group atmosphere made the day feel almost private. Diana will be thrilled to hear your kind words, she truly loves tailoring the experience to each guest’s tastes and making the day personal and memorable. It’s wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed the wine selections, especially the Late Harvest Riesling and Misha’s sweeter styles. The lunch at The Stoaker Room and your visit to Arrowtown sound like perfect highlights to round out the day. Thank you again for the amazing recommendation and for joining us in Queenstown. We hope to welcome you back again someday for another adventure 🍷
