Created by the team behind NZ Spirit Guide, our tours bring together a lifetime of tourism experience and years spent working alongside New Zealand's distillers. We don't just visit distilleries, we open the door to the people, processes, and passion that go into creating world-class New Zealand spirits.

Whether you're a local looking for something different, visiting Auckland for the first time, planning a corporate event, or organising a day out with friends, our Auckland Distillery Tour offers an experience unlike anything else in New Zealand.

What's Included?

Our five-hour guided experience departs from Downtown Auckland and visits three different craft distilleries, showcasing a range of New Zealand-made Gin, Rum, and Whisky.

Along the way you'll:

• Meet the distillers behind the brands

• Enjoy guided tours through working distilleries

• Learn how New Zealand spirits are made

• Hear the stories behind each business

• Experience a range of complimentary spirit tastings offered by the distilleries

• Enjoy a shared platter during the tour

This isn't simply a tasting experience. It's a behind-the-scenes journey into one of New Zealand's fastest-growing craft industries.
