Itinerary

  • Makana Confections

    Decadent taste and variety of choices. Pinot Noir truffles and Slated caramel are some of the favourites but wait till you taste the Macadamia Butter Cruch. You will not leave without it.

    15 minutes

  • Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre

    Peter Jackson is famous all around the world for his film making. Especially the Lord of the Rings. We are proud to hold his classic air displays from WW1 and WW2 here in Marlborough. The aircraft are restored and some still working mode and the displays he has created are so life like its amazing. A cafe of memorabilia is available here for light refreshment.

    1 hour

  • Saint Clair Family Estate Vineyard Kitchen

    Award winning wines especially the Bubbles and the Reserve Sauvignon Blanc. Restaurant for lunch is always an option with local produce platters and inspirations from the garden.

    30 minutes

  • The Vines Village

    Plenty to do and see here. Ice-creams so creamy the very best. Gourmet oils and pates to try. Manuka Honey and more. Local crafts and a Quilters Barn for creators. The cafe overlooks a lake and the rolling hills and the vineyards. If you love Gin or Beer this is also the place to come to taste or by the glass or pint.

Friendly and professional

Published on Oct, 2023

Great wine and a very interesting tour of the museum. Very well planned and laid out exhibits. Pamela was informative and friendly.

Execellent tour, professionally delivered under trying circumstanaces!!

Published on Mar, 2020

My wife and I had booked this tour months in advance of the COIVD-19 troubles. Locked into our return flights we decided to continue with our trip.......We are extremely glad we persevered. Our guide for the day(Paul) was fantastic. Paul changed the itinerary to accomodate winery closures while providing an entertaining and informative dialogue on the flora, fauna and customs of New Zealand. I'm sure it must have been difficult. A must see is the Omaka Avaition Heritage Center. I have been to aviation museums in Palm Springs, CA, Grapevine, TX and the Smithsonian....well the Smithsonian is something else, however I would go back again to Omaka.... awesome collection of displays for WWI & WWII. Execellent tour, professionally delivered under trying circumstanaces.

Excellent dioramas

Published on Apr, 2019

Wish we could have seen the second section as well as the airshow which was cancelled due to weather. The planes were displayed in very realistic settings, detail is amazing.
