Gourmet en Scenic Delight Tour over de hele dag van Marlborough vanuit Blenheim

My Mum and me choose this tour with Pamela as we wanted to have a scenic tour, enjoy a few wine tastings and sample some of the local produce of the region in just one day. This tour didnt disappoint. Pamela went out of her way to ensure all our expectations were met in comfortable and relaxed tour. A truly beautiful experience and memorable one for my Mum (85) and me. Would definitely recommend this tour to everyone who wants to get a taste of everything all in a day. Thank you Pamela.

Pamela is a local great guide with more than 13 years experience. She took us various kind of wineries and I enjoyed the depth of this area.I definitely recommend her tour.

Excellent tour and wine tasting. Specially we enjoyed our chauffeur who gave us lots of information and insights into NZ wines.

Thank you, Pamela for a personalised tour. You gave us interesting cellars to visit, explained history about the region, found a lovely restaurant for lunch and even a local chocolatier to taste the wares. We loved that you tailored the tour to our interests as well. Excellent

We had the most amazing day out with a really great trip planned by Pamela. We booked somewhat last minute and Pamela organised a really great schedule of wineries for us to go to with some extra stops for views and photos etc. We had a fab day and learned a lot about the region both from Pamela and the lovely wineries we went to. It was a great day and we would absolutely recommend booking with Pamela!

Pamela showed us around some great local vineyards which we had never been to before, as well as an amazing viewpoint other the whole region and a lovely local chocolate factory to finish the day. It was brilliant that we could all enjoy the wine tour without needing to worry about having a designated driver.

We feel completely ripped off. While our tour guide was lovely and the 20-year-old van was very comfortable, sadly the tour simply didn't provide what was advertised. The guide blamed Covid and then blamed us, there was no apology or offer of compensation for the false advertising. We looked at lots of tours and this one - the most expensive - stood out with this advertising: "Stop for seasonal produce (December through February) of juicy strawberries, cherries, apricots and nectarines, along with local cheeses, oils, liqueurs, Manuka honey, peanut butter and black garlic. Make a special stop at the Makana Confections Boutique Chocolate Factory for some divine chocolate treats!" There was nothing of the sort provided. When I raised it and showed the guide their own website she looked troubled and tried to compensate by buying a block of cheese! At the end of the tour she did offer to take us to a chocolate place, but by then we were so disillusioned we asked to go back to our hotel. None of the other items were offered, which is really sad as the region seems to be rich in those areas. Basically the $295 per head tour gave us the same value as the $115 per head one we originally considered. I have complained to the booking company - getyourguide.com - and they are based in Germany and just keep passing it off with excuses. They say that the guide told them she offered us some of the additional items we expected, but I bluntly don't believe them that she said that - after all - we would have jumped at them, not turned them down! It looks like our only option will be to take the local operator to the Small Claims Tribunal and seek a refund of the difference between what we paid and the value we'd have received from the $115 tour. Sadly we didn't even get an apology, just insistence that it was our fault for expecting too much!! Beware the booking agent - getyourguide.com - they are simply awful to deal with. I think the local operator just needs to update their website and not set these expectations. Then they can compete on a level playing field with the other operators once they remove their false, or out of date, claims.

We had a super day with Ian as our chauffeur. Along the way we saw many names that we know from buying some at home. We visited six wineries and had very informative chats with the staff at each one. Lunch at the Fancy Cow was good, and we met up with Pamela and another group. A really great day, informative and fun. Thank you Ian and Pamela.

We really enjoyed our private tour with Pamela! We were surprised that we were the only participants. Pamela had made an alternative program because one of the wineries and the lunch location were not open just after the wine festival. Chapeau Pamela! We thought it was fantastic. Nice wineries, locations and delicious wines. Lunch at Allen Scott was a pleasant surprise. So good! A special thank you to Wijnhuis Bladen. They give a very special explanation about the origins of their winery and take you into the vineyard for an explanation and their way of growing. Top! And they also have fantastic wines. After wine tasting, we also drove past a Chocolaterie and picked a nice spot to see the vineyards from above. We had a great day!

This tour was fantastic! Our guide was so informative, guide was approachable and taught us lots about wine! She has a fantastic connection with the wineries and with this we received special treatment and we went to the best locations. Such an enjoyable day and have great memories!
