When people tell us, we live in one of the most beautiful places on the planet, we tend to agree. Enthusiastically.

​It’s hard not to be inspired by this place. From the craftsmanship of the winemakers to the dramatic landscape carved by ancient glaciers.

​So that’s why we do this. Simple wine tours to inspiring places. We’ll share our passion, our local knowledge so that you too, can find a little bit of inspiration.

 

We’re passionate about a few things

​Adventures

We’ve had a few adventures in our time. And while Queenstown offers a never-ending supply of thrills and adrenaline, we think slower-paced adventures are the most rewarding. Slower, yes. Dull, never.

​The winemakers

We are inspired by the winemakers of Central Otago who create their own kind of magic every season. They transform the colours and flavours of the earth, schist, icy waters, grapes and frosts into something that you can crack open with friends by the fire or crack into under the scorching southern sunshine.

​People

The team behind Queenstown Winery Tours comes from a diverse background. Mostly, our previous lives involved too many hours at the desk, long hours and high stress. When we dreamed of the ideal lifestyle, it involved meeting new people, beautiful environments and of course… wine.

It’s been a big leap to step away from the corporate career and take some time out to smell the grapevines. But we couldn’t be happier. 

 

Languages

​Between us, we speak English and Portuguese fluently. We can also get by with a bit of Spanish.
