Experience Details

Join the Twilight Wine & Craft Beer Tour for an entertaining afternoon wine and beer tasting tour.


Meet your friendly local guide in the Queenstown town centre and then travel out and enjoy exploring the Gibbston wine region and Arthurs point before returning to central Queenstown. Visit award winning cellar doors offering unique collections of both local wines and craft beers.


Throughout the afternoon, enjoy three unique tasting experiences at a mix of both wineries and breweries, finishing off with shared platters. Prefer a Pale Ale over a Pinot Noir? At each location choose between either wine or beer tastings while hosted by exceptional cellar door staff and your tour guide.
