Efficient way to get around

Published on Feb, 2025

Super efficient way to get around the wineries. Time can creep up on you so suggest planning out if you do not want to miss anything. My longest stop was at spy valley as the place has the most serence atmosphere and keep this place for a nice platter to go with your wine.

Big fun!

Published on Feb, 2025

Marlbough hop on bus

Great

Published on Feb, 2025

Did the tour today. The office and surrounding buildings were a bit busy probably because of cruise ship came into the region. I think the staff were doing a great job managing the crowd of people. Management were fast replacing our old maps to the up to date ones. Buses came every 30minutes so it was easy to navigate the tour. Scenery was fantastic. Overall, I had a great day.
