We have an incredibly experienced, knowledgeable and friendly bunch of long-term local Driver Guides that know everything there is to know about wine and the Central Otago wine region! Be sure to ask them heaps of questions, they revel in sharing their facts, stories and information on history and the area with you.
Allan, a proud Kiwi, has been part of our guiding team for the past two years. With a strong background in hospitality, he's incredibly knowledgeable about both wine and beer. Allan also has a deep appreciation for local history and brings a wealth of experience and enthusiasm to every tour he leads.
Paul, a proud New Zealander has been guiding with us for over 10 years. His "everything wine" knowledge is absolutely second to none, his local history knowledge admirable and guiding experience, extensive. Paul's greatest passion, along with wine and food, is gold-prospecting and no doubt our lucky clients would have been treated to some wonderful stories over the years.
Martin has been wine guiding with us for over 7 years. Originally from Australia, he has a strong knowledge of Australian wines, however, New Zealand is well and truly his home now and his enthusiasm for Central Otago wines and the region would rival the most devout Queenstown local. Martin also has a strong background in creative design and is a talented photographer so brings a wonderful flair to the team.

“We went on two tours over a few months, one with Martin & the other with Paul. What absolutely fantastic guides, both so extremely knowledgeable and pleasant to spend the day with. Was great to go to different vineyards on each tour and taste some extremely amazing wines, certainly makes you appreciate the talent that we have in NZ wine makers.”
