Kaewa Tours Limited Paraparaumu Wine & Vineyard

After picking you up from Wellington we head north on State Highway 59 passing through the northern suburbs of greater Wellington until reaching our first lookout point at Pukerua Bay overlooking the Kāpiti Coast. We then head up Paekākāriki Hill for an even more majestic view over the Kāpiti Coast, Kāpiti Island, the top of the South Island and on a clear day we may see Mt Taranaki/Egmont and Mt Ruapehu.
Our first foodie delight of the day is a visit to the Kāpiti Chocolate Factory for an informative presentation on the history of chocolate, gain an understanding on what’s involved in producing Chocolate - from the Cocoa bean to your mouth and of course we finish with an extensive tasting of Kāpiti Chocolates.
What’s the next best thing to Chocolate? Yes – Coffee! We take a visit to The Roastery Kāpiti n Paraparaumu where we experience a Beans to Cup experience. You will gain an in-depth knowledge of where Beans are produced and sourced from, what their sustainability policies are from determining where they purchase coffee from, how the coffee roasting process works, enjoy a cup of the freshly roasted coffee and take away a bag of your own freshly roasted coffee.

After our Coffee experience we take a visit to The Bond Store/Koakoa where we sample award winning locally produced Limoncello, Gin and Vodka.

Lunch is taken at the iconic Waikanae Beach Cafe, Hey Coastie.
We then head to the multi-award winning Extra-Virgin Olive Oil producer Kāpiti Olives or Totara Tunnel Olives in Te Horo. We take a walk through the Olive Grove where we gain an understanding on what is involved to maintain healthy Olive trees and what it takes to produce outstanding award-winning Extra-Virgin Olive Oils.
Don’t worry if you decide to have a sleep in the car on the way home. I won’t be offended! It’s a sign you have enjoyed the great tastes of the Kāpiti Coast region.

We arrive back to your selected drop off location in Wellington around 4:30-5:00pm.
