Tenuta Jasper Ridge. Real recensione ha nominato il loro rosato 2024 il rosato numero 1 in Nuova Zelanda! Tra le loro splendide vigne, sarai sapientemente guidato attraverso la loro gamma di vini e stili di classe mondiale, e forse anche alcuni vini ospiti curati, se disponibili!
Un breve tragitto in auto ci porterà alla splendida spiaggia di Onetangi, la location del nostro pranzo ospitato - lo splendido ristorante Three Seven Two. Abbiamo pensato a lungo e duramente di condividere il nostro ‘locale’ con voi, ma hey, come potremmo non farlo?!! Cibo pluripremiato con una vista davvero gloriosa sulla spiaggia! Gusteremo pane e olio d'oliva in comune, quindi un piatto principale a scelta accompagnato da vino, birra, sidro o bibita analcolica gratuiti dal loro ampio menu. Oh e se disponibile il giorno, perché non aggiungere alcune famose ostriche Te Matuku?! Dopo pranzo possiamo goderci una passeggiata sulle sabbie dorate della spiaggia di Onetangi, catturando alcune foto e godendoci la meravigliosa aria marina del Pacifico meridionale!
Waiheke Distilling Co. che vanta alcune delle viste panoramiche più belle dell'isola. Nella cornice del loro bellissimo garden bar & woolshed assaggeremo gin boutique artigianale o vodka botanica servita in stile banco di degustazione con mixer premium, ghiaccio e guarnizioni. Pensiamo che una gita a Waiheke Distilling Co. sia un vero gioiello dell'isola!
Come coppia locale Waiheke che ha una passione per i prodotti e i locali sull'isola, abbiamo personalmente curato un tour di cinque fermate che mette in mostra la vasta gamma di offerte di livello mondiale che abbiamo proprio qui a portata di mano.

Had a fantastic time exploring the lesser explored east side of the island. Our host Joe was so knowledgeable and helpful, and was also so kind throughout the entire tour. All the places we visited had delicious drinks, great stories behind their wines and spirits, and we left each place with a purchase because we just could not help ourselves. Would highly recommend this experience, and we feel so lucky we picked this tour.
Hey guys! That was such a fun day & tour! Thank you so much for the kind words & thanks again for sharing part of your special trip to NZ with us! Travel safe, ngā mihi, Joe
Wonderful personalised day with Joe. We were the only two people on the tour. The island was unexpectedly quiet after Easter weekend. Joe picked us up from our accommodation. We saw a part of the island we would not have accessed without a car and visited a couple of small wineries. The olive oil place was fun and the gin tasting was in a spectacular setting. Lunch afterwards was excellent! Many thanks Joe.
Thank you so much for the kind words! And thanks so much for letting us share our favourite spots on the island with you. Travel safe, ngā mihi, Joe (WOW Tours)

Thank you so much for the kind words. This was a super memorable tour for us and so grateful to share in your special day on the island. Many thanks, Joe
Our group of 4 have been lucky to do food and wine tours around the world. This tour is as good as we’ve done anywhere! Our thoughtful and knowledgeable host, Joe, took care of every detail delivering us to places many tourists to Waiheke miss. Great food, great wine tastings and an amazing gin & vodka tasting experience.
Thank you so much for the incredibly kind words. We loved sharing the island with you & your group. Travel safe and have a great 2026. Ngā mihi, Many thanks, Joe
Joe was so down-to-earth and welcoming. I felt at ease straight away and pumped for the day. He knows the region inside out and took us to vineyards and hidden gems most tours miss. The stories, history, and laughs made it a personal, unforgettable day — he really shows the real ‘wow’ of the place.
Thank you so much for the kind words and for coming on our tour! Travel safe and hope to see you again on Waiheke Island! Ngā mihi, Joe
"The gin distillery stop was unreal — something most tours don’t even go to! The wineries were stunning and Joe’s stories about the people and the history made it even better. Everything felt totally special and off-the-beaten-track, a day we won’t forget."
So stoked that you had such a special day with us on Waiheke ! Thanks so much for the kind words. Travel safe! Ngā mihi, Joe
Waiheke is already gorgeous, but Joe showed us hidden spots we’d never have found ourselves. From quiet beaches to little vineyards, the stories and history made it so much more than a normal tour. Really gave us a proper taste of the region and the real ‘wow’ moments
Thank you so much for the kind words & we are so glad that we could whisk you away to some new spots for you on Waiheke Island! Thanks for coming on our tour! Travel safe, ngā mihi, Joe
This tour was the highlight of our trip to New Zealand. The wineries, olive oil farm, and the gin/vodka establishment were superb. The view from the gin/vodka tasting was amazing. A small (in our case 4 people) tour showed us off the beaten path to places that Joe particularly enjoyed. Joe was kind enough to limit the tour to 4 people, as our friends son expressed his love of New Zealand and wanted to move there, but unfortunately has passed away, Therefore, this trip to New Zealand was a tribute to their son.
Thank you so much for your kind words. That was a very special day on the island. It was an honour to share in it with you. Travel safe and have a wonderful 2026. Ngā mihi, Joe (WOW Tours)
This was a magical experience. Everything was 5 stars from our host, Joe, to the vineyards and transportation. The forecast predicted some wind and rain, so we dressed accordingly. Although not a typical summer day, it was still perfect. Joe was a fantastic historian and most gracious host. Was nice to start with bread and olive oil before moving on to gin, vodka & wine. I never knew I liked gin & tonic, until I had it at Waiheke Diistilling Co. The only thing better than the gin, vodka, and food there was the breathtaking view. Jasper Ridge was our third spot. Our host there was generous and pleasant. The wine was some of the best we’ve ever had and it was nice to try the same wine from different seasons (rainy vs. dry). At lunch they had a table facing the ocean for us. I had the best onion rings of my entire life. Skip the crowded mega bus tours and treat yourself to this more intimate experience. You will NOT regret it. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again next time we are in the area. Perfection!
Victoria, thank you so much for the incredibly kind words. We are so thrilled that you had such a great experience here on Waiheke Island. Hope the rest of your travels are amazing and that you have a safe 2026. Travel well. Thank you, Joe
If you want to get a taste of local Waiheke olive oil AND wine AND gin this is the tour you need to take! I found Joe to be an amazing guide - he's friendly and professional, and most importantly he has local knowledge of Waiheke Island as someone who lives there himself. The tour he provides gets you away from the crowds, and as well as the amazing variety of tastings he organises, you get to see some breathtaking views, and enjoy some great cuisine in a beautiful location. Thanks Joe for providing a great day out on Waiheke Island!
Paul, firstly it was so great to meet you & to have such a fun day on the island with you. Secondly, thanks so much for the kind words! It's so great to hear that everything you experienced on our tour, is everything we want our tour to be! Travel safe, have a great 2026!
