Discover Wellington on a unique food lover's tour with specialist 'Zest'!
Taking the philosophy that the best way to discover a place is through its food, the best way to discover Wellington is on a unique food lover’s tour with specialist ‘Zest’ – delving below the surface to visit small, out-of-the-way treasures which only the locals know about! A wonderful introduction to Wellington, ‘Walking Gourmet’ explores the capital’s specialist food stores on foot. Go ‘behind the scenes’ to meet the owners, baristas and/or chefs – and, whenever possible, even roast your own coffee beans. Finish with a light tasting lunch at a top Wellington restaurant. For those who prefer less walking, the longer ‘Taste Wellington’ tour takes in the hidden delights of ‘Walking Gourmet’ (but with some sections by car) and visits a top food writer’s home to taste some delicious treats…rounded-off with a late lunch at a top Wellington restaurant. Our favourite, the ‘Chocolate Espresso’ tour is a ‘must’ for chocolate and coffee lovers…stroll around the city, tasting exquisite coffee and delicious hand-made chocolates as you go! We also highly recommend joining ‘Zest’ in Greytown or Martinborough – ‘Greytown Gourmet’ explores this charming historic town on foot, meeting speciality food producers and sampling mouth-watering delights – followed by a tasting lunch. ‘Martinborough Food & Wine’ savours the region’s award-winning wineries and boutique food producers – and includes a delicious tasting lunch, matched with wonderful local wines.
