About Hop On-Hop Off Wine Tours:
Juliearna Kavanagh came up with the idea in 2010 when she wanted to have a tour where people made their own choices. The initial design was written down on a piece of paper and the idea was born. There was a delayed start, due to earthquakes in Christchurch in 2010 & 2011. In March 2014, Hop on Hop off Wine Tours was launched. The Marlborough, Nelson and Queenstown tours are constantly evolving with new operators, deals and improved scheduling. The team look forward to welcoming you on board.
