About The Site
What This Site Is
This site compares guided wine tours and tastings across Marlborough, around Blenheim, Renwick and the Wairau Plains. It reads what each booking page states about a tour, prices, durations, inclusions and ratings, then reports it in one place so visitors can weigh options side by side. Nothing is sold here and no tours are run by the site.
What This Site Does
The site covers 32 wine tours across 5 categories:
- Half-day tastings: 11 tours
- Full-day tastings: 9 tours
- Picton and cruise-ship tours: 5
- Bike and self-guided tours: 4
- Private and gourmet tours: 3
All 32 tours publish a from-price. Per-person prices run from $39 to $353.45, and one private tour is listed at $1,261 per group of up to 4.
How Booking Pages Are Checked
Every fact on this site comes from the live booking pages of the 32 tours listed, or from official sources. Prices, durations, ratings and review counts are read from each booking page as published, and all 32 tours carry free cancellation. Ratings run from 4.4 to 5.0, and review counts from 1 to 482. Region background draws on Wine Marlborough and NZ Winegrowers material, with Port Marlborough consulted for cruise schedule context. Nothing is estimated or filled in from memory.
How The Site Earns
Tour links are affiliate links. If you book through one, the booking site pays this site a fee at no extra cost to you. The disclosure page sets out the details.
What It Does Not Do
The site does not run tours, take payments or hold bookings. It cannot change a booking, issue a refund or confirm a pickup time; those sit with the operator you booked with. Plain Marlborough Sounds cruises without a winery visit, scenic flights, transfers, hotels and car hire fall outside its scope and do not appear on these pages.
How To Cite The Site
Cite the site as Marlborough Wine Tour, and describe prices as from-prices taken from the live booking pages. Ratings and review counts shift as travellers post, so quote them as at the time of reading. Contact is by email only, at info@marlboroughwinetour.com.
