Queenstown Sightseeing Coach Tour | Queenstown Gourmet Scenic Wine Tour

Central Otago wine country spreads from the outskirts of Queenstown’s Wakatipu Basin through picturesque valleys and dramatic gorges to the rolling vine-clad foothills of Bannockburn and beyond. A relaxed day of fine cuisine, good company, sampling local cheeses and tasting premium cool-climate wines.

Your journey includes unforgettable views and fascinating pioneer history, along with the smooth sophistication of award-winning gourmet food and wines among the region’s soothing backdrop of tussock and thyme.

All daily tours run with a maximum of 11 people and allow you to see real drama in the scenery, hear the pristine silence of the high country, savour the scent of pure clean air and feel the pulse of the heart of Central Otago. Taste the wine, toast the region.

Food for lunch and the wine stops were great. The time allowed after each tasting was sufficient to shop around and get ready for the next stop.

Our guide Richard was resourceful and fluent with good information. Richard was a great glue that helped bond 7 (3 British couples and Swami) of us wine connoisseurs. The day long trip was conducted in an efficient manner. My family and I are enjoying the wines that I had purchased at Gibbston Valley. Hope I can enjoy more wine tours in NZ during my next trip to Kiwiland.
