Afternoon wine tour in Wanaka and Central Otago with four vineyard tastings, a gourmet platter, and chances to meet vineyard owners and winemakers.

Tour Overview

Spend an afternoon exploring the vineyards and landscapes of Wanaka and Central Otago with Wanaka Wine Tours, Wanaka’s original wine tour company, operating since 2001.

This tour focuses on smaller vineyards that are building a strong reputation for award winning wines. Across four vineyard tastings, you’ll sample a range of local wines while hearing directly from the people behind them. A key part of the experience is the chance to meet vineyard owners and winemakers, and to chat with them about their work in a relaxed, personal setting.

The journey also takes in the scenery of Wanaka and Central Otago, pairing wine tasting with a broader sense of the region. A knowledgeable, friendly guide leads the day, helping shape an experience that suits both first-time wine tasters and those with a deeper interest in wine.

Included in the tour is a gourmet mid-afternoon platter, giving you time to pause between tastings and settle into the pace of the day. With four vineyard visits, local wine, and direct access to the people producing it, this is a straightforward and well-rounded introduction to the wine culture of Wanaka and Central Otago.
