RedBalloon is your one-stop shop for experiences and curated gifts. We’re so confident you’ll love what you get from us, we’re offering this promise to you…
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we’ve got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we’ll do the work for you.
Not only do we handpick the best experiences for you, we also guarantee you’ll pay the same as you would buying direct from the experience provider. If you find the same experience advertised at a lower standard price on the same day by the same provider, simply take a screenshot of the experience advertised at the lower price and tell us within 30 days of your purchase and we’ll match it.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
This tour of Martinborough is a great way to visit the region's wineries and sample local food along the way. Be picked up from either Wellington or Wairarapa, enjoy a scenic journey on the way, then tour the award-winning vineyards. Take in scenery, food and wine, wine, wine!
The tour departs Wellington when you board the “Vineyard Express” train. Start with stunning harbour views, bush-clad valleys and ranges, and views of a fertile rural plain. Check out a huge inland lake and New Zealand's longest passenger rail tunnel. Travel through the Rimutuka Ranges to Featherston where you'll join a coach with the passengers who choose to board at Wairarapa. This guided and informative wine tour of the Martinborough region will take you to four of the area's wineries. You'll be allowed plenty of time to taste and be informed of the characteristics of the various wines available.
An included lunch will be enjoyed at one of the many local cafés. The tour winds down with the choice of a further glass of Martinborough wine or a delicious cheese platter and coffee. Take some time then to browse the village craft shops and galleries before joining the coach for the transfer back to the “Vineyard Express” to Wellington, or home to your Wairarapa accommodation.
