About this activity

This is the only Wine & Dine experience that pairs a proper sit-down lunch at Batch Winery, one of Waiheke's top vineyards, with the freedom of a hop-on hop-off bus pass to explore afterwards.

You get the best of both worlds, a relaxed, guided lunch experience with sweeping vineyard views, followed by semi-independent exploration at your own pace, all in a single day trip from Auckland with ferry travel included.

Itinerary

Waiheke Island's ideal microclimate produces some of New Zealand's most celebrated artisan wines, and this Wine & Dine experience is the easiest way to taste it for yourself. Cross the Hauraki Gulf by ferry from Auckland, taking in idyllic views of seaside villages, lavender fields and forest along the way. On arrival, settle in at Batch Winery for a seasonal multi-course lunch paired with a glass of wine, all set against sweeping vineyard views. Afterwards, explore the rest of Waiheke at your own pace using your included Western Explorer Hop-On Hop-Off Bus pass, stopping wherever catches your eye before heading back to Matiatia for your return ferry to Auckland. Ferries run until late evening, so there's no need to rush your day
