    This was an amazing tour! If we could have given 10 stars we would! We would 100% recommend this tour if you want to sample some amazing wineries, with not only spectacular views but further exploring the Māori culture. Joe made this tour for us, he is so friendly, knowledgeable and his passion for sharing the Māori culture was amazing! We loved the e-bikes too, what a great way to explore and see more of Wanaka! We just wanted to say a huge thank you to Joe and Aku mihi nui ki a koe mā te wā.

    Wanaka is a stunning town and nothing could be more fun than riding ebikes and drinking wine with Joe. Joe was a great guide -- kind, encouraging and knowledgeable. He shares about history and culture, but doesn't overwhelm you. My husband had never ridden and ebike, and I'm slow. Joe was patient. It was one of our nicest afternoons in New Zealand.

    We had a great day with our guide Joe. Joe was great and took us to 3 different wineries. My wife loved the E-Bike which made it very easy for her to bike in the countryside between the wineries. Joe was very sure to make it a safe trip and he took us on a route that minimized any traffic. We were in the countryside and on the lakeshore. What makes this tour unique is that it is also a cultural tour. Joe taught us a lot about the Māori culture throughout the day. I will do this again the next time I am in Wanaka. Make sure you bring a backpack if you buy any wine, although Joe did say he could carry some for me.
