Welcome to Alpine Wine Tours
Alpine Wine Tours offers memorable group, private and custom wine and distillery tours from Queenstown – the gateway to Central Otago’s renowned wine region.
Immerse yourself in a sensory experience in New Zealand’s largest wine cave, taste award-winning wines from the Valley of the Vines or learn about the spirit-making process, from grain to glass, at a local family-owned artisan distillery. Whatever your preference, there’s a tour designed specially to please your palate.
With a love for guiding, the region’s vintages and the tourism industry, you’re in safe hands with your local guides. Wine-lovers can soak up the history of century-old oak wine barrels while swirling and sniffing unique flavours from the world’s most southern wine region, and foodies will be overjoyed with the chance to savour local cuisine along the way.
There’s no need to worry about a ‘dedicated driver’ as your guide whisks you away through the stunning Gibbston sub-region in comfort and style in our fleet of European vehicles, including a 2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Mercedes Ambiente and Land Rover Discovery.

We really enjoyed our experience with Alpine Wine Tours! The day was super relaxed, yet really interesting. We loved that it was very boutique, definitely not your standard wine tour! With very luxurious transport! Will definitely book again!!
Thank you Alpine Wine Tours for an amazing experience during the Southern Alps Spirits and Valley of the Vines Tour. Your vehicle is first class and the scenery spectacular complemented by beautiful Central Otago Wines and a most informative Cardrona Distillery Tour. The best day ever!
Highly recommend Alpine Wine Tours to anyone for their Southern Alps Spirits & Valley of the Vines Tour. Had a brilliant day – very professional, fun and great mix of choices for venues to visit.
