Experience the laid-back luxury of Waiheke Island on this exclusive evening escape, designed to showcase the island at its most enchanting. Begin with a scenic ferry ride across the Hauraki Gulf, with Auckland's skyline drifting behind as you approach the island's rolling hills and vineyards.
Upon arrival, meet your local Waiheke guide and enjoy a relaxed drive through the island's sun-kissed landscapes. Along the way, hear stories of the island's rich history, colourful community, and flourishing food and wine scene.
Pause for a boutique wine tasting at a scenic hilltop estate, where you'll sample a selection of Waiheke's renowned varietals while taking in stunning views of the surrounding gulf and islands.
As the sun begins to set, arrive at Mudbrick Vineyard's Archive Bar & Bistro, where a seasonal dinner menu awaits. This beautifully styled venue offers a warm, casual atmosphere with sweeping views across the water back to the city. It's a relaxed and refined way to close the day, enjoying great food, wine, and company.
Return to Auckland by ferry under the stars, with the island's charm lingering long after you've left its shores.

Not advisable for guests using a wheelchair. Wear comfortable walking shoes. The ferry ride to and from Waiheke Island is unguided and is not exclusive to Seabourn guests.
