YOUR HOST

Kia ora, welcome! I’m a 5th generation kiwi, a New Zealand wine judge and foodie who wants to share my passion for New Zealand; its sights, history, culture, and lifestyle.

We’ll take you to the special places of New Zealand; the places that nudge your sense of wonder and curiosity.

I am an experienced guide, travel advisor and planner, with wide knowledge and passion for NZ wine and food, culture, history and lifestyle, and am a member of the New Zealand Sommelier & Wine Professionals Association.

I’ve travelled just about every road and visited almost every town and village in New Zealand. I have fun every day. Our guests have fun. What more could anyone want.

I look forward to planning and making your journey in New Zealand unique and wonderful.
