Exploring Auckland’s city centre was just as fun, with great food, stunning waterfront views, and plenty of hidden gems to discover. Then, heading over to Waiheke Island was the perfect way to unwind, beautiful beaches, amazing wineries, and the most breathtaking coastal scenery. It was the perfect mix of adventure, city life, and relaxation!

I wanted to spend some leisurely time alone, so I went on a winery tour to Waiheke Island. Although I was traveling alone, it was a richer and more special experience. I will summarize the day. 1. Beautiful scenery and a perfect start I was excited from the moment I took the morning ferry from Auckland to Waiheke Island. The clear blue sea and the island scenery I saw from the ferry already gave me healing. As soon as I arrived on the island, I was immersed in the fresh air and leisurely atmosphere. 2. Winery tour Because I was alone, I was able to choose the wineries I wanted more freely, and here are my impressions of each winery: • Mudbrick Vineyard The first place I visited was Mudbrick Vineyard, the most famous on the island. The luxurious winery building and garden, as well as the view of Waiheke at a glance, were impressive. I enjoyed tasting Pinot Gris and Chardonnay and reading a book in the peaceful garden. • Cable Bay Vineyards The second stop, Cable Bay, was a place that stood out with its modern interior and wide lawn. Here, I enjoyed a small platter with rose while taking in the island scenery. It was a perfect moment that was not awkward even if I was alone. • Tantalus Estate The last place I visited, Tantalus Estate, had a different, sophisticated and luxurious atmosphere. I could feel the deep flavor of red wine, and thanks to the friendly explanations of the staff, I had time to learn a little more about wine. 3. Leisurely time alone The best thing about going alone was that I could fully enjoy the winery at my own pace. I tasted wine, looked at nature, heard the laughter of people around me, and quietly enjoyed the island atmosphere. I was worried that traveling alone would be lonely, but the conversations with the staff and the short greetings with people on the same tour actually made me feel warm. 4. Walking through a small village on the island After the winery tour, I walked around Oneroa village and enjoyed a cup of coffee at a local cafe. In the cute shops and artistic atmosphere, I could feel a different charm from the winery. 5. Overall Review The Waiheke Island winery tour that I went on alone was the perfect ‘gift for myself’. It was a day where I could enjoy my own leisure time and leisurely experience the beautiful island scenery and high-quality wine. Recommended Points • An atmosphere that is not awkward at all for those traveling alone • A must-visit place for wine lovers • Each winery has its own unique wine and view Tip: • Bus and shuttle: Waiheke has good public transportation, so it is convenient to get around even if you are traveling alone. • Time: If you allow enough time to travel between wineries, you can enjoy it more leisurely. • Reservation required: It is recommended to make a reservation in advance for popular wineries. Waiheke Island is a place where you can have a fun and enriching time even alone. I want to visit again with my friends next time!

Must visit great winery while visiting in Waiheke island. They look like more professional and give me a short and simple story about wine, moreover they have a excellent viewpoint being able to see a blue sea and natural green wild mounds(,not mount) It’s a perfect place to taste a wine with nature.

The food plating and presentation is lovely and all items included some flowers, complementing the garden setting of the main seating area at the back of the cafe. It’s a little oasis of cool and calm that you would not be able to tell if you just walked past the shopfront, so I was glad to have finally experienced it for myself after hearing much of this place. I wouldn’t say I loved my choice of dish, though it was fine as a meal. Had samples of the other dishes and they’re all pretty decent. #newzealandtrip #couplestrip #thingstodo

If you're visiting Waiheke Island, Wan O' War Winery is a gem you can't miss! The breathtaking views of the vineyards overlooking the ocean, combined with world-class wines, make it an unforgettable experience. While their Syrah and Chardonnay are popular, my personal favorite is the Pinot Gris – it's absolutely refreshing! The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming. Whether you're relaxing with a picnic or enjoying a tasting session, this is the perfect spot to unwind and take in the beauty of New Zealand's wine country. Business Hours: Monday to Sunday: 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM Highly recommend for wine lovers and nature enthusiasts alike!

I am never the type to travel far but at some point in my life, I thought, I should just wing it. So from the Philippines to New Zealand, here I am finding myself taking photos of precious moments I know would remind me to just take a rest. Feel the breeze. Take it slow. #slowlife #newzealand #travel

Waiheke Island, which can be reached by ferry from Auckland, New Zealand's largest city, is also known as the "Jewel of Auckland." This island is famous for its wine, and many people come there in the summer, which is the main season! Waiheke Island is the second largest island in the Hauraki Gulf of New Zealand. To get to Waiheke Island, you take a ferry from Auckland Port. Auckland is known as the "City of Sails" because of its well-developed marine transportation system, including ferries. It takes just under 40 minutes by ferry from Auckland to Waiheke Island. After purchasing the ferry ticket, we were able to board the ferry and depart in just 5 minutes. However, there were reports that it took 2 hours to wait in the summer, so please allow yourself plenty of time. During the ferry ride, we were able to enjoy the beautiful view of the harbor. The ferry was two-story, so when we went out onto the deck, the breeze was pleasant and we could see the whole of Auckland city. You can move freely while the ferry is moving 🙆♀️ There was also a cafe where you could buy snacks, coffee and other drinks. 📍WAIHEKE island #Travelingwithme #WaihekeIsland
