5-hour guided tour over the Remutaka Ranges to Martinborough, with visits to three wineries, cellar door tastings, and driver commentary.

Tour Overview

Travel over the Remutaka Ranges on this 5 hour guided tour to Martinborough, one of New Zealand’s premier wine regions. Along the way, your driver guide shares local knowledge and commentary, adding context to the journey as the landscape changes on the way to wine country.

In Martinborough, you will visit three of the region’s wineries and experience their Cellar Doors firsthand. The tour includes a wine tasting led by the winemaker in their own quaint Cellar Door, offering a more personal look at the wines being poured. You will also enjoy wine tasting led by local cellar door staff at two further stops, giving you a broader sense of the region’s wine offering and hospitality style.

With any remaining time, the tour may stop in the Martinborough Town Square, where you can explore the town centre at your own pace. Food options are available at local cafes and hotels, as well as places such as the local brewery, the Wine Bank, or the Martinborough Sweet Shop. This part of the itinerary is time permitting and is not always possible.

This tour is a straightforward way to experience Martinborough’s cellar door culture with guided transport and commentary throughout.
