Thank you, Ross!
My husband and I booked the tour expecting a group but ended up as our own private tour!! The balance of the group for this particular tour, cancelled. For all those wondering and questioning if Napier, Hawkes Bay and the wine tourism is up and running, it definitely is and your support is needed and greatly appreciated! You won’t be disappointed and for now the lack of crowds is an extra special experience for you.
Ross made our afternoon informative and a truly exceptional experience. We really enjoyed the wine tours at Mission Estates, the Urban Winery, and Askerne along with the delicious charcuterie.
The gin distillery at the beautiful Art Nouveau National Tobacco Company Building was a highlight. The gin was exceptional and the tasting inside this period decorated tasting room made a perfect touch to the outing.
