Experience Details

Drive Auckland's wine country yourself, with a GPS audio guide that plays automatically as you go. Your booking unlocks the whole region in the free Wine Trails app: pick your date and starting point — Auckland CBD, Kumeu — choose the cellar doors you want, and the app builds your personal route with turn-by-turn narration. 35 stories cover 10 cellar doors and the people behind them: as you pass Henderson Valley you'll hear how the Dalmatian families behind names like Babich, Soljans and Nobilo dug kauri gum out of Northland swamps to pay for the land where New Zealand's wine industry began. No group, no schedule, no guide — spend an hour at one cellar door and five minutes at another, replay anything, and the audio keeps working when the signal drops. You'll need a car and a designated driver; tastings are booked and paid directly with the wineries.
