Your Local Chauffeur Wine and Food Delight Tours of Marlboro Blenheim Wine & Vineyard

TOUR SUMMARY

Omaka Heritage Air Centre is a popular icon stop
with Peter Jackson's collection of classic airplanes and
his amazing heritage WW1 and WW2 displays.
It is
recommended that two hours is
set aside for you to wander among the life-like displays of our
past heritage activities and the most generous collection of
personal memorabilia. The Heritage Delights Tour can be
tailor-made for the group to mix and match with more
heritage options and some wine tasting, visit some of
our local artisans and enjoy the scenic aspect of our
beautiful Wairau Valley and plains.
A stop for lunch at one of our picturesque wineries is part of your day
and a must stop at our Makana Chocolate Boutique confections.
