We don’t always run to a pre-arranged schedule of winery visits so that we can factor in everyone’s requests.
Award winning local guides
Our small, cheerful Bubbly Team was described as “hosts as effervescent as champagne” by New Zealand’s Lonely Planet 2008 guidebook under top tours in Marlborough, and we haven’t changed.
We are bubbly in nature and liked by the local wineries who strive to offer the best service for our clients.
