We love this region and are proud to call it ‘home’. What Hawke’s Bay has to offer a visitor is as diverse as it is interesting: wines with a national & an international reputation for quality; bountiful fresh produce and a range of locally made gourmet products; an extensive selection of quality cafes & restaurants; landforms of national significance; an extended coastline lined with walkways & cycle tracks; a much celebrated Art Deco heritage; a community of talented artists working in a range of mediums; boutique shopping precincts; wetlands to explore; and a varied rural landscape with livestock farming, horticulture & vineyards forming a picturesque tapestry on a drive through the countryside.
What you choose to experience is limited only by your imagination. That’s why what we offer is no ‘one size fits all’ approach. We believe a tour of this beautiful destination should be tailored to accommodate your special interests. Let us help you to customize your experience of Hawke’s Bay. Make it Your Tour.
Thank you very much for the very enjoyable afternoon touring Hawkes Bay. We learned a lot about the Hawkes Bay Area and New Zealand. The winery visits were delightful especially Te Mata. Please thank Toby for showing us around the winery. I learned a lot and have a better appreciation of the process and how difficult it is to make good wine. The Hawkes Bay Area is lovely and you did an excellent job of showing it off to us. We saw what we wanted and then some!

I am a New Zealander living in London and therefore discerning over NZ tours. I decided to take a tour in Napier/Hawkes Bay and contacted Your Tour. This tour of three art venues and also the Farmers' Market was absolutely superb. It was interesting/informative and fun. I felt I learnt a lot, and I could not have possibly have organised this myself! My host Moira was professional and very pleasant. I thoroughly recommend Your Tour and shall be telling my friends in London.

It was a delight to take your tour last week, thank you so much. Arthur and I really enjoyed getting to know our own beautiful region. As locals ourselves, we learned more about the history and background of the Sea Walls, Pania of the Reef and much more. We also discovered new places like the Urban Winery, the Ātea a Rangi Star Compass and the Birdwood Gallery. You were a superb guide, very professional but relaxed and accommodating to our needs. You provided a variable and delightful programme in an organised and charming manner. A great way to spend a day! We will certainly recommend your tours to visitors and locals alike.

Thank you so much for a wonderful, enlightening and totally relaxing day around Hawke´s Bay. We loved the way you took us around at our own speed, explaining big and small details we would not have noticed ourselves. We liked remarks on history and legends that led to further understanding of the spirit of the area, all done in your excellent and clear English which is easy for foreigners to understand. We thoroughly enjoyed our stops at the cheesemakers and the winery, above all our excellent lunch at Birdwood Gallery - a truly enchanted place, we would not have found by ourselves. It was just the right combination of everything to come home feeling happy and fulfilled.
