Experience Details

This Twilight Wine and Stars Tour is an evening celebrating Central Otago wine, seasonal cuisine and stunning starry night skies.


Start the evening at the luxurious Gibbston Valley Lodge and Spa where you’ll learn about wine region, taste a duo of wines and enjoy an à la carte main course.


Journey on to Waitiri Creek cellar door for more insights into the region’s winemaking heritage. Take part in a wine tasting complimented with a dessert platter.


As darkness falls, the experience heads to Gibbston Dark Sky Park, where telescopes and lasers reveal the stars of the southern sky with a professional photo under the stars.


Weather conditions can sometimes prevent the stargazing portion of the evening from proceeding. If this occurs, we’ll replace it with another memorable final destination. Instead, finish the evening at one of Arrowtown’s cocktail venues, where you can enjoy handcrafted cocktails & soak up the atmosphere.
