Description

Good to Know

This is the only Wine & Dine experience that pairs a proper sit-down lunch at Batch Winery, one of Waiheke's top vineyards, with the freedom of a hop-on hop-off bus pass to explore afterwards. You get the best of both worlds, a relaxed, guided lunch experience with sweeping vineyard views, followed by semi-independent exploration at your own pace, all in a single day trip from Auckland with ferry travel included.

Hotel pickup and drop-off

Waiheke Island's ideal microclimate produces some of New Zealand's most celebrated artisan wines, and this Wine & Dine experience is the easiest way to taste it for yourself. Cross the Hauraki Gulf by ferry from Auckland, taking in idyllic views of seaside villages, lavender fields and forest along the way. On arrival, settle in at Batch Winery for a seasonal multi-course lunch paired with a glass of wine, all set against sweeping vineyard views. Afterwards, explore the rest of Waiheke at your own pace using your included Western Explorer Hop-On Hop-Off Bus pass, stopping wherever catches your eye before heading back to Matiatia for your return ferry to Auckland. Ferries run until late evening, so there's no need to rush your day

Fun and easy taste of Waiheke

This was an easy and fun day at the lovely Batch Winery. The hop on hop off bus was easy to use and the drivers very friendly and accommodating. Batch Winery is an extremely beautiful spot looking over the Island and back at the City. The platter was delicious and the service was great.

Beautiful island with great wine

We loved this day trip. Batch winery was amazing, big pours of great wine & the best charcuterie board we have ever had. Unfortunately we went during off season & the island tour busses weren’t running very often. We spent a lot of our day waiting for the bus. Would be nice for the tour operator to include more info with vouchers, such as ferry times, bus info etc.

Excellent day out. Lunch was so much better than anticipated. Batch Winery is just beautiful Only gripe is that prices were in $US not $NZ which wasn’t noticed until payment was made

Enjoy the beauty and serenity of Waiheke Island using the Hop On Hop Off bus on arrival, located right at the ferry. Waiheke is very hilly so the bus was really appreciated! We used it as a tour only getting off at Oneroa village to have a drink and look at the shops and then we hopped back on and got off at the Batch Winery for our delicious lunch. We ma...read more
