Leave the city behind and discover the rolling vineyards, boutique cellar doors and rich winemaking heritage of Kumeū, one of New Zealand's oldest and most celebrated wine regions. This relaxed private wine tour combines award-winning wines, beautiful rural landscapes and exclusive local experiences, with the flexibility to explore at your own pace.

Just 30 minutes west of central Auckland, Kumeū has earned an international reputation for producing world-class Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and other cool-climate wines. Settled by Dalmatian families in the late 1800s, Kumeū's winemaking traditions have been passed down through generations, helping establish the region as one of New Zealand's most respected wine destinations. Today, family-owned vineyards, boutique wineries and welcoming cellar doors continue to define the region's unique character.

Traveling with an experienced local guide, you'll enjoy guided tastings at three carefully selected wineries before stepping behind the scenes at a fifth-generation family-owned Dalmatian vineyard. Discover the journey from vine to bottle, explore a working winery and hear the stories, traditions and craftsmanship that have been passed down through generations.

Whether you're a passionate wine enthusiast, celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a relaxing escape beyond the city, this private wine tour offers the perfect blend of exceptional wines, local hospitality and authentic experiences in one of Auckland's most picturesque regions.

What an outstanding and wonderful tour

Louise was so informative, personable, and just the perfect guide! She answered every question about life in New Zealand, and provided insights that made visit so meaningful. So many "wows"! We saw everything we planned and more, and never felt rushed. I wish we had her for our entire trip! The vehicle was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. Don't think twice, book with Your Kiwi Tour!!
