New Zealand · WINE TOURS IN CHRISTCHURCH
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 4 wine tours in Christchurch worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Taste 15 Waipara wines, enjoy a platter lunch, and visit three North Canterbury wineries from Christchurch without driving.
“It was a lovely day at beautiful vineyards with a great lunch. Our guide, Stephanie, particularly made the day special, answering all of our questions and providing helpful extra information on the wine tasting experience.”
Explore Waipara’s wineries from Christchurch with guide Giles, generous tastings, a winery lunch, garden views, and pickup in a six-person group.
“Blessed with the weather, stunning scenery and only an hour or so out of Christchurch. The wineries visited were diverse in size, produced a variety of wines and made us feel very welcome. The tastings were generous and information on each was extensive. An individual platter was served to each guest for lunch and the food was superb. We would have liked more time at each venue but guess we will just have to rebook and do another tour with Giles.”
Spend a day from Christchurch on a working sheep farm with lambs, a grazing lunch, wine tasting, and scenic Waipara Valley views.
“Rare opportunity to do a trip not many travellers or locals take. Simon, our driver, was so informative. North of Amberley the coach turns onto a little used road. The family owned and run farm is in wonderful hilly coastal location. Great talk abRead more”
Float above Canterbury’s patchwork plains with Southern Alps views, hands-on balloon prep, expert pilots, and a sparkling wine toast.
“Graham's knowledge and skills flying the balloon. We really enjoyed the shared experience of setting up the balloon for launch, and packing it back up.”
Pick an island, a lake or a cave.
