Explore 26 Marlborough stops by coach, from wineries and breweries to museums and gin distilleries, with flexible hop-on hop-off travel.
“Overall good but it was confusing re pickup times and how they did the drop off run. Once we worked it out it was good. A couple of the stops the places hadn’t even opened when we were being dropped off we had to wait for them to open. Our driver wasn’t as enthusiastic as I would have liked but by the end of the day it didn’t matter as we had had a great time at a few of the wineries. Make sure you book a head if you want to have lunch or do tastings as most places you had to book into. We weren’t aware of that…”
