This 10-hour tour includes a scenic driving tour of the Hutt Valley, spectacular views from the Remutaka Summit, and visits to sample the artisan produce of Cheese, Chocolate, and the quaint award-winning vineyards.

Following food and drink, the tour then heads to the rugged southern Wairarapa coastline and Cape Palliser, offering unstoppable views of the bay before exploring the rural village of Ngawi with its iconic tractor community. Marvel at the North Island’s largest permanent fur seal colony and test your fitness on a climb to the Cape Palliser Lighthouse, which provides epic sweeping sea views.

After working up an appetite, take a short walk along the edge of Lake Onoke (Lake Ferry) and hear about its history, then sit down at the historic Lake Ferry Hotel for dinner.
