When people say that we live in one of the most beautiful places on earth, we tend to agree — enthusiastically.

Set against the dramatic landscapes carved by ancient glaciers, Central Otago is more than just scenery. It’s a region defined by craftsmanship, resilience, and world-class winemaking. Inspiration is everywhere here — in the vineyards, the mountains, and the people behind every bottle.

That’s why Queenstown Winery Tours exists.

We offer relaxed, thoughtfully curated wine experiences designed to connect you with the region in a meaningful way. No rush. No scripts. Just great wine, beautiful surroundings, and genuine conversation.

Every tour is personally hosted by founder Susana Weir, ensuring a boutique, attentive experience that larger operators simply can’t replicate.

What We’re Passionate About

​Slower Adventures

Queenstown is known for adrenaline. But we believe the most rewarding experiences are often slower-paced. Time to savour a Pinot Noir. Time to take in the landscape. Time to connect.

Slower, yes. Dull? Never.

​The winemakers

Central Otago’s winemakers create their own kind of magic each season. From schist-laced soils and icy alpine waters to frost-covered mornings and long summer evenings, this landscape shapes every vintage.

They transform the elements into wines meant to be shared — by the fire in winter or under the southern sun in summer.

We’re here to tell those stories.

​People

Queenstown Winery Tours was founded after years spent in high-pressure professional environments. The vision was simple: build a life centred around connection, beautiful surroundings, and meaningful experiences.

Wine brings people together. Conversations flow more easily. Stories are shared. That human connection is at the heart of every tour. 

Languages

Tours are hosted in fluent English and Portuguese. We can also get by with a bit of Spanish.
