Marlborough Delights Tour
Tourist Attractions
The following attractions are organised as part of the Marlborough Delights tour.
Vines to Wines
There can be few ways to learn as much about wine, as hearing it first hand, from the hand that blends it. Share wines with a local winemaker - sample their product, understand their philosophies and influences, and appreciate the entire production process from vine to wine.
Inter-Island Ferry
Wine Spectator calls it "one of the most beautiful ferry rides in the world", and we agree.
Interislander is the New Zealand ferry service which crosses the Cook Strait between the North and South Islands of New Zealand. The 92 km, three hour journey between Wellington and Picton is one of New Zealand's most iconic tourist experiences, and one of the most spectacular cruises in the world.
Optional Afternoon Activities (other than sleeping under a tree or taking a plunge into the pool)
- Wine tastings by coach, private car, or on your bike!
- Kayak through the Marlborough Sounds
- Go swimming with dolphins
