Napier luxury vacations hand-crafted by our New Zealand specialists.

It takes but two simple words to sum up the Hawkes Bay Region of New Zealand: Wine Country. 

Famous for its Pinot Gris and Syrah, it’s one of the country’s leading producers of wine, and has drawn visitors the world over for its popular bicycle wine tours and treks on the Classic New Zealand Wine Trail. 

Pair your pinot with locally-grown goods from the farmers market or indulgencies from Hastings, then embark on a stroll to enjoy the area’s architecture. Perfectly preserved from the 1930’s, Hawke’s Bay was rebuilt after an earthquake and still boasts beautiful Art Deco buildings to this day. 

It’s the kind of place where Stripped Classical and Spanish Mission styles compliment the coastline, and Māori motifs employ a unique New Zealand character. 

To dig deeper into the local culture, a visit to tribal lands can also be arranged.
