Queenstown Middagwijntour (alleen volwassenen) | Kiwi Host, Max 10
Beschrijving
Maak van een middag in Queenstown een van de hoogtepunten van uw reis — zonder iets te plannen. Van iconische wijnhuisarchitectuur tot award winnende kelderdeuren, deze volledig gehoste ervaring is naadloos, ontspannen en onvergetelijk. Deze kleine groep voor volwassenen (max. 10 gasten) wordt gehost door een deskundige Nieuw-Zeelandse local — wat zorgt voor een persoonlijke, goed bezette middag met echt inzicht en geweldige verhalen. Bezoek Peregrine, Kinross en Amisfield — drie opvallende wijnhuizen. Verken de opvallende architectuur en vatenhal van Peregrine, geniet van een award winnende proeverij bij Kinross (Qualmark Wine Tourism Award 2024) en sluit af bij Amisfield, een gecertificeerd biologisch wijnhuis dat bekend staat om zijn premium wijnen. Geniet van het iconische landschap van Queenstown — Lake Wakatipu, Lake Hayes, de Kawarau Gorge en Gibbston Valley. Drie wijnhuizen. Perfect tempo. Tegen de vroege avond terug in de stad. Met slechts 10 zitplaatsen per tour is de beschikbaarheid beperkt — als je date vrij is, is het de moeite waard om zeker te zijn. Opmerking : Privé Tour Upgrades beschikbaar

What a perfect mini afternoon parents escape! The guide, Emma, is thoroughly knowledgeable and friendly and made sure we were well looked after. A beautiful taste of some spectacular wineries in the outer Queenstown region and great service at each winery due to the tour experience. Very comfortable transport (which also meant we could drink and not worry!) and great amount of information about the region. Thoroughly recommend especially to those parents able to get away for a few hours break from the kids!
What a perfect mini afternoon escape from the children! A well put together afternoon of wineries with tastings. The guide, Emma, was very knowledgeable and friendly and each winery gave a very special guided tasting. Beautiful countryside, great comfortable transport, fantastic guide and great wine - what more could you ask for?
The small ceremony went well without cancellation and thank you for answering the questions kindly - I drank a variety of Pinonua wines and bought a bottle per winemaker!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! It was such a pleasure hosting you both during your honeymoon, and I’m so glad we could still go ahead with a smaller group so you could experience Central Otago’s incredible Pinot Noir region. I loved sharing the stories behind the wines and answering all of your questions along the way. And the fact you bought a bottle from each winery definitely means the tastings were a success 😄🍷 Thank you again for choosing Alpine Wine Tours as part of your Queenstown honeymoon. I hope you enjoy opening those bottles together in the future and remembering your time here in New Zealand. Safe travels and congratulations again! Cheers, Emma 🥂
Amazing Experience with Emma! You get to learn about the stories behind the New Zealand Pinot Noir vineyards and taste so many variations and local grown! Would recommend to anyone traveling Queenstown!
Thank you so much for your lovely review Jae! It was such a pleasure hosting you both during your honeymoon, and I’m so happy you enjoyed discovering the stories behind Central Otago’s Pinot Noir and tasting so many beautiful local wines along the way. Thank you as well for recommending us to future Queenstown visitors — it truly means so much to a small local business. I hope you both have an amazing honeymoon and get the chance to open another Central Otago Pinot Noir together on a future anniversary 🍷😊 Safe travels and hopefully we’ll see you back in Queenstown one day!
An absolutely outstanding experience. Emma and her adorable dog Bella made this the best wine tour I’ve ever been on. The smaller, more intimate group size really sets this tour apart and allows for a thoughtfully curated experience from start to finish. If you’re in Queenstown, this is an absolute must-do.
Hi Alex, “Best wine tour of my life” — wow, thank you! That truly means so much! I’m so glad you loved the smaller, more intimate group experience—that’s exactly what we aim for so you can relax and enjoy every moment from start to finish. And Bella will be very happy to hear she helped make it extra special 🐶🍷 Really appreciate you calling it a must-do—means a lot to a small, local business like ours. Hope to see you back in Queenstown again soon! Cheers, Emma & Bella 🐾🍷
We had a swell time on this tour with our wonderful driver guide Emma. She was very friendly, approachable and knowledge and helped us learn a lot about wines. There was also some flexibility in the types of wines we could choose to try from each winery, which we appreciated. All in all, a very lovely afternoon. Highly recommended.
Hi Jade, Thank you so much for your lovely review — it truly means a lot. I’m so glad you enjoyed the afternoon and appreciated the flexibility with the tastings. That’s something I really try to make special, so you can discover wines you genuinely love rather than feeling like you’re on a fixed, one-size-fits-all experience. It was such a pleasure hosting you, and I’m really happy you came away having learned a little more about the wines and the region along the way. Enjoy the rest of your holiday in NZ and the Central Otago wines 🍷 Cheers, Emma Alpine Wine Tours
Wine choices were great and selected based on group preferences, Emma was an amazing and knowledgeable guide, and Bella the wine dog was an amazing tour companion
Thank you for your beautiful review Graye — it truly means a lot. I’m so pleased you enjoyed the wine selection. We take great care in curating the wineries, so it feels personal, seamless, and a little bit special from start to finish. It was a pleasure hosting you, and of course Bella will be delighted to know she added to the experience 🐾🍷 We’re so glad to have been part of your Queenstown experience — one to remember long after the last glass 🍷 Cheers, Emma
Great afternoon wine tour visiting some premium wineries and tasting some of their best wines. And someone else was driving!
Hi Andrew, Thank you so much for joining us and for taking the time to leave a review! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the Queenstown Afternoon Wine Tour — the premium tastings and stunning wineries are even better when you can just relax and let someone else do the driving! We really appreciate you choosing to spend your afternoon with us and hope to welcome you back next time you’re in Queenstown. Warm regards, Emma Alpine Wine Tours 🍷
Our tour guide was friendly, engaging and very knowledgeable Plus wine tour dogs are a bonus we sisnt expect but greatly appreciated
Hi Matthew, Thank you so much for your lovely review! It was such a pleasure guiding you, and I’m really glad you enjoyed the afternoon. I love sharing the stories behind our wineries, so it means a lot to hear that it came through. And yes — Bella the wine dog was absolutely thrilled to be part of the tour that day! She takes her “guest happiness” role very seriously and will be chuffed to know she was appreciated. 🐾🍷 Hope to see you again next time you’re in Queenstown! Warmest regards, Emma & Bella Alpine Wine Tours
Although our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, we really didnt visit vineyards, just the tasting rooms. Two of the spokespersons for the wineries were very knowledgeable and friendly whereas at one, he barely showed up to pour us some wine. We had nice places to sit and were very comfortable but no actual vineyards were seen. I would have loved to visit the actual vineyards and sit outside to hear their stories. There was really no food served but after asking, we were allowed to buy some appetizers at second vineyard. Should be advertised to eat lunch first. Tour was from 3-6:30. We did get to taste many different wines which was nice, but I guess the ambiance of the vineyards was missing for us. It was such a lovely day to be herded inside but there was no place to sit outside.
Hi Don, Thank you for your feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed the wines and found me friendly and knowledgeable, but I’m sorry to hear that parts of the experience didn’t meet your expectations. We carefully select wineries that have vineyards on-site, and during your tour, you did have the opportunity to see them. At Kinross, Diego took you outside to see the vines after your guided tasting. At Gibbston Valley Wines, I personally walked you and the group to the Home Block vineyard, where you saw the 1983 Pinot Noir sign, learned about its significance plus the opportunity for photos and to see the Pinot Noir grapes up close. At Amisfield, there is a view looking out towards the vineyard from the Cellar Door tables we were seated at. While we understand some guests may prefer outdoor tastings, wineries typically host them indoors to ensure the best experience—keeping wines at the right temperature, avoiding weather disruptions, and allowing for a structured and engaging presentation plus guests don’t have to worry about having to bring all their attire if it’s too hot, cold, windy or worry about getting sunburnt. Our tour begins at 3pm so this assumes guests have had lunch beforehand, but we do include a stop where bar snacks can be purchased for those wanting a small bite. The tour also returns to town by 6:30pm, giving plenty of time for dinner afterwards. We always aim to create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere for all guests, and I do my best to ensure everyone feels comfortable and included. While I appreciate that everyone has different personalities and preferences, I also strive to balance the experience so that all guests have the opportunity to engage and enjoy the tour in a way that feels welcoming. While no tour is perfect for everyone, we take great care in curating a high-quality wine experience, and I hope that despite these concerns, you were able to enjoy Central Otago’s incredible wines. Perhaps next time, a private wine tour experience would suit you better. Best regards, Emma
