Overview

  • Taste Waiheke Island, not just its wine. This small-group food and wine tour with a maximum of 15-guests from Auckland visits four tasting stops, includes lunch with a glass of wine and every tasting fee included.

    Start at Kennedy Point Vineyard with certified organic wines, two Te Matuku Bay oysters each and local Waiheke honey. Taste extra virgin olive oil at Allpress Estate. At Casita Miro, pair wine with food, then enjoy a family-style Mediterranean tapas lunch with a glass of wine. Finish at The Heke with local beer, gin, whisky and a liqueur.

    Your guide drives the scenic northern route, with views across the Hauraki Gulf. To start the tour you’ll need to catch the 9am Fullers or 9.15am Island Direct ferry from City centre Auckland. The tour starts at 9.50am at Matiatia Wharf and finishes around 3.40pm at Matiatia Wharf or Oneroa Village. Ferry tickets are not included.

    Ananda Tours is family-run on Waiheke since 1999.
