Nature & Ceramics Tour

Embrace the serene side of Waiheke Island on a journey that celebrates scenery, artistry, and taste. Begin your day with a peaceful hike along the Whakanewha Nikau Trail, where lush native bush, birdsong, and glimpses of the sea create a tranquil beginning to your adventure. As you walk beneath the elegant canopy of nīkau palms, absorb the soothing rhythm of nature and the calm energy that defines this beautiful corner of the island.

Continue your adventure with a visit to a boutique olive estate for an engaging olive oil tasting. Learn about the art of olive cultivation and sample a variety of rich, aromatic oils that express the island’s distinctive terroir. Each taste offers a glimpse into the craftsmanship and passion that define Waiheke’s local producers.

Next, delight in a gourmet lunch thoughtfully paired with fine local wines, each dish inspired by the island’s seasonal ingredients and relaxed coastal lifestyle. Savour the harmony of flavours while enjoying panoramic views that stretch across vineyards and sea.

In the afternoon, awaken your artistic side with a hands-on ceramics and pottery workshop, guided by skilled artisans. Shape and design your own unique creation, drawing inspiration from the island’s textures, colours, and natural beauty.

Mixing nature, culture, and relaxation in perfect balance, this thoughtfully curated tour reveals the gentle beauty and creative soul of Waiheke Island – a place where every moment invites you to slow down, connect deeply, and take home memories as timeless as the landscapes themselves.
