Vintners were generous and the lunch was both generous and delicious. The guide was outstanding! Told us a lot about the area, history, activities and the local wine scene.

I recently spent the day on the Gourmet Food & Wine tour from Queenstown. Alan was an excellent guide and driver. It was a small group of 3 people plus Alan. We visited a good selection of 4 wineries and lunch was included. It was nice to chauffeured around giving us time to view the spectacular scenery as well as being picked up and dropped off back at our hotels. I would definitely recommend this tour if you are visiting Queenstown.

I have been to many wine tastings being from California and I felt the tour company ensured we had a unique experience at each location, thank you. I am also fussy about my food and was delighted by the lunch...wow! That day we had goat meatballs on polenta, venison with a wine sauce, skin on salamon, pork and all sorts of veggies along with a flight of wines matched to the food. Our host was gracious and gave us 15 minutes to scoot around Arrowtown very quickly. Overall, I was quite pleased with this experience and recommend it amongst the many choices.

Awesome tour! I went on the tour solo and had an amazing time. The wine was wonderful, food was delicious, and ride was great with the knowledgeable guide. He shared a lot of his knowledge on the area’s history and the wineries which kept the rides between wineries interesting. The tastings at each winery were also great with lovely staff. Highly recommend this wine tour! The food was a highlight as well, so good and awesome presentation.

I liked that each tasting was hosted a little differently but we didn't spend an inordinate amount of time driving around. The wines were quite good, well paced and the lunch was over the top good. Artistic presentation of the meal and incredibly good taste: venison, goat meatballs, crispy pork, salmon, vegetables, etc. more wine :) Our tour host was thoughtful and we enjoyed the small group. I'd recommend it
