The amazing region of Wairarapa. We head out of Wellington for the short journey over the Rimutaka Hill to explore Martinborough. Renowned not only for its micro climate but also for the many vineyards producing world class wines. Most notably, the Pinot Noir. We visit some of the best vineyards in Martinborough to experience their incredible hospitality and of course, we'll enjoy some delicious food as part of our time here too. You'll be driven safely to & from the region with a knowledgeable local host. We can't wait to have you!

Our group of girlfriends had the most amazing Vineyard tour to Martinborough. We were picked up on time in a modern, immaculate, and comfortable van. We visited several superb locations which had been hand-picked by our Guide where we enjoyed beautiful food and delicious wines. Our driver/guide was professional, warm and friendly and he made everything so easy for us. We are booking again for a trip in the winter with Ka Rawe!

Operator response
