JAN & MIKE STRANGER, BC, CANADA

Don’s knowledge of the process of winemaking is outstanding. His understanding of the Hawke’s Bay and Esk Valley regions is thorough and his hospitality is exemplary.

KATHARINE, AUCKLAND

We were fortunate enough to spend a whole day with Don. He imparted his knowledge and passion for Hawkes Bay wines to us throughout the day. His friendliness and humour made us feel welcome and we felt privileged to be in his company. We will fondly remember our tour and highly recommend Don as a host.

DAVID & TRISH SCHISCHKA, AUCKLAN

Don identified what we were looking for and created a day tour to meet our specific needs. Don put together a unique harmony of wine education, access to restricted vineyard areas, wonderful lunch with a blind tasting, local history and sightseeing. A truly educational and memorable experience. Well worth it, highly recommend, do it!

A friend and I had a private tour with Don — we visited two wineries (one where the tasting experience included five wines) and we enjoyed drives through the beautiful countryside enjoying the experience of seeing NewZealand’s varied landscape as well as a pleasurable tea break at Don’s home. Don is a wonderful tour guide and host who enjoys taking his guests wherever they want to go and from whom much can be learned both about winemaking and about New Zealand.

Your Expert Guide to Wine and Tourism

Grape Escape is owned and operated by Greg Beachen. My experience has been gained from many years working in the wine and tourism industry in New Zealand and the UK.

Whilst living in the UK I studied for a degree in Business Management and Tourism at Glasgow Caledonian University in Scotland. It was during this time that I discovered the wonderful world of wine, whilst working part time in an Oddbins wine store. Oddbins were renowned for their fantastic range of wines and knowledgeable staff, so it seemed like a great place to explore the world of wine. 

Starting and running this business has been one of the most enjoyable things I have done in my life. I credit this to the fact that I found something I was passionate about. Through my passion for my business I believe that I bring great value to my clients/friends. It is my mission to meet and exceed my customers needs and expectations.

A little history:  Havelock North was founded by the government in the late 1860 to provide land for small farmers and working-class settlers. Like other towns in the region, its growth was restricted by large pastoral stations on its fringes. The first orchards appeared in the 1870s, but they were not common until the early 20th century. Bernard Chambers established the first vineyard (Te Mata Estate Winery) in 1892. Subdivision of pastoral land from 1898 enabled the town to expand. The township was named after British general Sir Henry Havelock to commemorate his role in suppressing a rebellion against British power in India.  Today there is six well known wineries and three places of interest to visit that will fill in your days adventure
