Absolutely delightful! We had no idea what to expect and the tour far exceeded our expectations. Helen and Mark were so welcoming and knowledgeable; they shared many stories and the history of the region. Our day started with a stop at the Kaitoke Regional Park. Magical! A stop at Aston Norwood Cafe for coffee and scones was perfect after the chilly walk in the park region. We moved on to enjoy a trip over the mountain to Martinborough and enjoyed a wine tasting at Palliser. The Sauvignon Blanc was amazing! We then traveled to Tirohana Estate for a wine tasting and leisurely gourmet lunch. Our host Toby did not disappoint! We moved to Poppies for a wonderful tasting and loved the Late Harvest Riesling. We journeyed back to Wellington with a quick stop at Schoc Chocolates for a sweet ending to our tour. The day was amazing with a taste of wine, history, and the beautiful scenery; a truly wonderful experience filled with lovely memories and new friends. Thanks again, Helen and Mark!
