Best experience!!

This was the best day out with friends. Abby was our driver and guide and she made it fun and relaxed. She had great knowledge and we were blown away with the vineyards. Couldn't recommend this highly enough, if your looking for a more relaxed experience with amazing wine and food this is for you!

Best wine tour!

My three friends and I from Auckland visited Queenstown for 5 days and this wine tour was one of the highlights from our trip! The vineyards in this region are so unique and each host was knowledgeable and passionate about the wine they make! Misha's Vineyard was definitely my top pick. Abbey, our tour guide, went above and beyond and it was clear that working in the tourism industry is a natural fit for her - she was charismatic, friendly, and made the 8 of us on the tour feel very welcomed.

Must do wine tour!

Abbey was our tour guide for the day and she blew our minds! The entire day was almost customised. She asked us what we wanted to get out of the tour and practically tailored our stops according to our tastes. She was extremely knowledgeable - we learnt so much not only about wine, but about the whole region, history and all! She was also witty, funny and conversational. This tour was a highlight of our trip to Queenstown! Can't recommend it enough. Abbey is a legend

Fully recommend this tour if Abby is your driver/guide. What a hilarious entertaining knowledge filled enlightening day. We had a absolute blast! I've been on wine tours in Otago before but it doesn't even rate compared to our tour at Enjoy. Abby made our day!!! Thankyou so much!

Best wine tour ever experienced

Just had the pleasure of coming from this tour and we are blown away by the experience. I’ve been on many wine tours all around the world (AUS, France, Italy) this by far was the most enjoyable and that’s mainly thanks to our guide, Abby (as well as the amazing wines we tried). We were left in awe of how much knowledge Abby was able to share about topography, culture and wine. We learnt so much today and feel Like we were touring with a friend who was introducing us to her cellar door friends. We didn’t expect such an unforgettable experience and are so happy we booked in for this tour. Abby is super passionate and will have you leaving happy, knowing you’ve just had a day you’ll never forget.

Premium Queenstown Wine Tour: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Premium Queenstown Wine Tour cost?

+

Prices start at $285 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Queenstown usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Premium Queenstown Wine Tour take?

+

Plan for about 6.5 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 Queenstown is not rushed.

Is Premium Queenstown Wine Tour worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 30 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Queenstown, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Premium Queenstown Wine Tour?

+

No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

Is Premium Queenstown Wine Tour suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 13. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 6.5-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Premium Queenstown Wine Tour?

+

Around 11 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 Queenstown 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 Queenstown and add a light layer if any part of the 6.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Premium Queenstown Wine 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 Queenstown 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 Queenstown?

+

On Outty we rank every Queenstown experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Premium Milford Sound Small Group Tour & Cruise from Queenstown, Milford Sound Premium Small Group Tour & Cruise from Queenstown, Award Winning Premium Wine Tour Queenstown Tasting at 4 Wineries. 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 Queenstown?

+

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 Queenstown?

+

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.
