Christmas is a time of celebration and in that vein, when you go on the Christmas in Marlborough Tour, you will be enjoying a Kiwi Christmas dinner and sashaying around the Top of the south wine region. Marlborough is an area rich in natures tapestry of stunning visual beauty and a horticultural paradise. All around you on your travels are vast acres of land covered in Wineries and Orchards of many varities. Some of the best produce we have to offer comes from this region. You will be staying and playing in Picton and Nelson, which records the highest number of sunlight hours annualy in New Zealand. A highlight is a dinner cruise on Queen Charlotte sound where you are surrounded by deep blue waters and native bush. There is a lot of local art and craft stores to visit, a Classic Car Museum, Aviation Centre and a spot of wine tasting to wash it down on the way. We have a lunch date booked in the Marlborough Sound on the waters edge, where you can bliss out in the peaceful surroundings. This will be a Christmas to remember for all the joy and serenity it brings.
