Come with us and enjoy a wine tour with top service and flexibility. Tour Highlights Take this afternoon tour and experience the true flavour of our local pinot noir and other wine varietals at three premium vineyards. Enjoy a guided tour through the vines and into New Zealand’s largest underground wine cave. This relaxing tour travels just a short distance from Queenstown where you will be given in-depth wine tastings and presentations at each vineyard. There is a lunch stop included, so you have plenty of time to unwind and get yourself a winery lunch or sample a selection of local cheeses, craft beer, coffee - all available. Occasionally, a listed winery may be unavailable on the day — but don’t worry, we’ll visit another boutique winery that’s just as charming and memorable.
Time allowed for a winery lunch. Choose from a la carte menu (own expense)

Amazing wine tour, amazing host Maria

Maria was an amazing tour guide! As a first time in queenstown she was amazing at giving us fun facts and was a delight to have for the day! The winery’s we went to were amazing and had really nice staff and more importantly wine! Was a lovely experience and definitely a lot was due to the amazing Maria xo

A great tour of Queenstown's winemaking history

The tour Andrew and the team were great hosts - special shoutout for going out of the way to pick us up when we arrived at the wrong venue!

Response from ViatorSeptember 01, 2026

Thank you so much Emmanuel! ✨ We really appreciate your lovely review, and we're so glad we got it all worked out for you in the end, via a little additional pickup adventure! 😊 Some Queenstown hotels have very similar names, Copthorne Lakeview versus Copthorne Lakefront, or Ramada Central versus Ramada Remarkables Park, for example, but are in completely different locations, which can make things confusing for guests. For anyone joining one of our Queenstown wine tours, please enter the name of the actual hotel you’re staying at, rather than the pickup point you think may be closest. If you’re staying at an Airbnb, or you’re simply not sure which pickup point is best, please get in touch with us directly. We’re always very happy to help you get it sorted, before your actual wine tour day. We’re so pleased Andrew managed to get you safely on board and that you had a great day discovering Queenstown and Central Otago’s winemaking history with us. Thank you for choosing Queenstown Wine Trail! Ngā mihi nui, Kiki & Andrew 💛
