Great Tastes of Matakana Tour with Bush and Beach - Lunch Included

Leave the bustle of the city and relax on the short drive north through the rolling green hills and past beautiful coastline before arriving at The Honey Centre. Here you find New Zealand's largest display of live bees and a huge range of honeys available for tasting, then visit Ascension and Brick Bay for a wine-tasting and art extravaganza. Sensitively sited along an easy walking trail, around 45 carefully chosen sculptures are given room to breathe in a stunning New Zealand natural environment. On your return to Brick Bay's Glass House you will sample their hand crafted wines followed by a delicious lunch made from many locally-sourced ingredients as you reflect on your experience of art and wine entwined at Brick Bay. The day is rounded off with a tasting at Chocolate Brown, where they hand-make outrageously fine chocolates.
