About this activity

Go Beyond the Usual Queenstown Wine Tour

Travel beyond the usual Gibbston wine-tour route, through the spectacular Kawarau Gorge and into Bannockburn, exploring two of Central Otago’s renowned wine regions in one day.

Take in Te Kano Estate’s striking architecture and views over the Kawarau River, taste certified organic wines at Carrick Winery overlooking the stunning Bannockburn Inlet, with time for a seasonal winery lunch at your own expense, then step inside a mountain at Gibbston Valley Wines — the founding winery of the Gibbston region and home to New Zealand’s largest wine cave.

Discover the landscapes, vineyards and Pinot Noir that make Central Otago one of New Zealand’s most celebrated wine regions, with a New Zealand-born Queenstown local guide sharing local knowledge along the way.

Two wine regions. Three distinctive winery experiences. One day exploring Central Otago wine country.
