We stop at 2 wineries during the half day tour

• Carrick Wines
• Cloudy Bay

You can also choose to get dropped off at Penny Black after the tour. This is the perfect choice to round off the afternoon. Its a cute little cocktail bar on the waterfront of Cromwells historic old town

Here are our suggestions to enjoying your half day tour.

• Sensible shoes for walking up the paths to the wineries from the boat
• Sunscreen (we have some available on board for purchase if you forget).
• Clothing suitable for the day. You will receive an email about the forecast the night before your cruise
• A hat is a good idea as Central Otago sun is strong

Absolutely. We would love to share your special occasion with you. For private bookings spaces are subject to availability. Head to the contact page and let us know what you would like.

The tour starts at 12:00pm approx.
We finish the tour approximately at 4 with the aim of having everyone where they want to be by 4:30pm.

The tour is designed for comfort. We will take 10 people for mixed groups and can take up to 11 for private groups.

Cromwell is known for its dry weather, in fact Bannockburn is known as the heart of the desert. You can expect fine weather most days. If the forecast is for rain or excessive wind you will be given the option of going on the tour by van or rescheduling your booking to an available sailing that suits you. Most days rain passes through quickly, so we may pick up the tour by boat if conditions improve.

Only by prior arrangement and not usually on our scheduled winery cruises, please head to the contact page and let us know which cruise you are interested in.

We have two short walks both about 400m. They usually take less than 5 minutes but we do have a small hill to walk up to Carrick. This is on the biking track so is a well graded track.
