    Great wineries and brewery visits

    Brett was an ideal guide, very friendly and knowledgeable. The wineries we visited had very friendly staff who were happy to share their knowledge with you and provide very informative information about their wines. Also had a lovely lunch at the brewery and very interesting and different beers to try

    Response from the operator: Thanks Jill, lovely to meet you both, great day on tour, enjoy your syrah! 😎

    Wine and Beer Tasting at its Best!

    We wanted wine tasting and that's exactly what this tour gives you. The wineries offered a good selection of sparkling, whites and reds so our party of four were very happy. Hallertau Brewery was a special treat for us, offering tasty food with a wide variety of beers that satisfied all. The real star of this tour, though, is Brett. He is a fantastic tour operator! A wealth of knowledge, he provided great info about New Zealand history and culture. When we are able to visit NZ again, he will be the first we call!

    Response from the operator: Thank you guys, was a fantastic day on the tour bus, lovely to meet you all, see you again one day! 🙏

    Highly Recommend

    Highly recommend this tour! We went to 3 great wineries and 1 amazing brewery! Brett was wonderful and we had an amazing time! Walked away with many bottles of incredible New Zealand wines and port!

    Response from the operator: Thank you Tanya, for your kind review, lovely to meet you all, hope you enjoyed the remainder of your travels throughout NZ! 🙏🥂

    Independent Shore Excursion

    Brett was our guide and was very accommodating. I booked on Viator and we communicated via email to verify the parameters. Our port stay was short but Brett filled every minute of it. Due to previous extreme weather issues we were unable to go to Muriwai Beach, disappointing but understandable. Flexibility is an important part of travel. We liked Bretts' solution...more wine! He also made a stop at The Blacks Experience so that we could pickup some souvenirs. I recommend his service.

    Response from the operator: Great day was had by all, excellent review thanks Maria! 🙏🏼

    Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Auckland.

    How much does Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $142 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 Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour 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 Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Auckland, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour?

    +

    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 Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour 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 Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour?

    +

    Around 2 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 Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour 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 and Waitomo Glowworm Caves Tour with Lunch from Auckland, Hobbiton Movie Set Small Group Tour with Cheeky Kiwi Travel, Hobbiton & Waitomo Caves Guided Day Trip from Auckland incl lunch. 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.

    What is included in Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour?

    +

    Included: In-vehicle air conditioning; and Hotel pick up. Not included: Lunch; and Alcoholic beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 14 listed pickup locations in and around Auckland. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Specialized infant seats are available; and Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Kumeu Wineries & Hallertau Brewery Private tour if the weather is bad?
