What you'll see and do
The Hunting Lodge Winery & Restaurant
The Hunting Lodge is a winery based in the heart of Auckland’s Wine Country with a rich heritage and a youthful spirit. It is the place where the Spence brothers, founders of the Matua Vineyard, created the first New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. Driven to do things a little differently and keep the spirit of innovation alive, The Hunting Lodge wine range not only showcases the best wine regions in the country but also captures the spirit of New Zealand’s pioneering nature in wine – the search for something new and interesting. They also have a slightly unconventional contemporary style in terms of packaging and design. Each illustration that makes up the label represents a certain aspect of their site and winemaking process.

Soljans Estate Winery
Over 80 years ago, the first delicate grapevine was planted in a West Auckland field. That grapevine grew into the Soljan family winery that is still standing today .In fact, very few wineries in New Zealand can claim to have a prouder winemaking heritage than Soljans. They are the third oldest winery in New Zealand that is still owned and operated by the original family. Five continuous generations have been involved in wine making. This is our lunch stop for a delicious 3 course vineyard lunch with a glass of wine, of your choosing, included in our tour price.

Relaxing Wine tasting
More tha 3 hour. Love our lunch at Kemue Winery. Our family enjoyed our tour.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing these lovely comments about our Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch. The region of Auckland where you tasted wine and travelled to the different vineyards is the original wine growing region of New Zealand; steeped in history and charm. Where you had a yummy vineyard lunch is the only vineyard in New Zealand where there have been 5 continuous generations of their family involved in the production of wine. Thank you sincerely for choosing our tour. It was a privilege hosting you all. Best wishes.

Drink the wines! A really enjoyable day.
8 of us did the West Auckland wine tasting tour - highly recommended. Each vineyard provided lots of information on their wines and provided a good selection to taste. The lunch at Soljans was delicious. A shout out to Gary at Westbrook and Matt our driver for lots of fun and laughter.
Response from the operator: I sense you had a very special day with your group of friends. Our wine tasting + vineyard lunch tour tour is the perfect way to spend a day with friends just getting together or celebrating a birthday or anniversary. You would have loved the visit to the 4 vineyards (3 for tasting) and one for a fine-dining lunch. This is a real opportunity to learn the art of tasting wine, the history of the vineyards that we visit but also getting you outside your comfort zone tasting wines that you may not have heard of before, let alone taste. Thank you for choosing our tour.

An awesome experience
Dave, our knowledgable tour guide, made our day more enjoyable with his easy-going manner, keeping us entertained with his stories as well as a running commentary of everything around us. The staff at all the vineyards were friendly, and helpful and made us feel very welcome. We were pleasantly surprised by what we found so close to home, We will be back. Thank you.
Response from the operator: Is there any better way to spend 6 Hours in Auckland that on our Wine Tasting and 3-course vineyard lunch tour. You experienced that first hand. Add in one of our highly knowledgeable tour guides and our tour is the perfect way to spend with a group of friends or celebrating something special. You clearly loved the 4 vineyards that we visited. 3 for tasting and the 4th our stunning fine-dining vineyard lunch destination. And you are right, these vineyards are right on our back doorstep; they are the original wine growing region of New Zealand. Thank you for your lovely comments and for choosing our tour.

Best value for money - Wine Tour
I chose this wine tour because I thought it was very good value for money. You get picked up in the city centre and dropped off there again at the end of the day. The lunch that is included was superb. A full size main and dessert, which were both excellent.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing these lovely comments about our Wine Tasting + 3 Course Vineyard Lunch. You are right that the lunch is superb; fine dining at its best. Then add in the tasting of 5 wines at each of 3 other vineyards and our tour is the perfect way to spend with friends, celebrate and occasion or just learn the art of wine tasting, the history of the vineyards and their different wines that they produce. And yes, as you mention, outstanding value for money. Thank you for choosing our tour.

Why this scores 78
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Auckland.
How much does Full-Day Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $119 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Auckland usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full-Day Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Auckland is not rushed.
Is Full-Day Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 33 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Auckland, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch?
+
Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Auckland can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Auckland and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Wine Tasting Tour in Auckland with 3-Course Vineyard Lunch start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Auckland within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Auckland?
+
On Outty we rank every Auckland experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hobbiton & Waitomo Caves Guided Day Trip from Auckland incl lunch, Hobbiton Movie Set Small Group Tour with Cheeky Kiwi Travel, Hobbiton & Waitomo Glowworm Caves Tour with Lunch from Auckland. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Auckland?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Auckland?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
