Scenic Taste and Graze Tour with Platters

This delightful journey begins at Mudbrick, one of Waiheke Island's most iconic spots, where panoramic views of the Hauraki Gulf await us. At their rustic cellar door, you will indulge in a wine tasting that introduces you to the varietals grown on Waiheke Island. Afterwards, you'll make your way to Onetangi, where you'll step into The Heke, a charming Waiheke craft distillery and brewery. The Heke is nestled within four acres of beautiful gardens, providing a serene and tranquil setting to enjoy the island's finest craft beers. A stone's throw from Onetangi is the beautiful Stonyridge Vineyard. They are known for their award-winning Bordeaux-style wines, with their signature Larose worth thousands of dollars per bottle. At the Veranda Café, you can relax under the shade of the vines and enjoy a delicious platter lunch while sipping on a glass of Stonyridge wine.

The journey then takes you from Stonyridge to Oneroa, where you will visit the renowned All Press Olive Groves. Waiheke Island is known for its unique microclimate that produces high-quality extra virgin olive oil. During the visit, you will get to taste a variety of locally handcrafted extra virgin olive oils, each with its unique flavour and aroma; you will also learn about the process of growing, harvesting, and milling olives.

After, your Waiheke Wine Tours guide will take you to the Matiatia ferry terminal, where you can catch the 3 pm ferry back to Auckland. Alternatively, you can choose to hop off at Oneroa village and spend some more time on the island, enjoying an early dinner or having some drinks before catching a later ferry.
