Experience gourmet walking tours in Wellington or a Wine and Food Producers tour in the Wairarapa with Zest Food Tours of New Zealand - we believe the best way to discover any place is through its food.

Let our wonderful, local guides introduce you to our regional tastes, peeking behind the scenes at some of our favourite food places. Places where only Zest can take you!.

Meet the passionate food producers and sample their culinary artisan offerings with like-minded foodies, on either a 3.5-hour walking Capital Tastes tour, a 5-hour Walking Gourmet tour (Capital Tastes plus a wine-matched tasting lunch at a top Wellington restaurant), or a 6-hour private Taste Wellington tour (Walking Gourmet plus afternoon tea at a local foodie's private residence).

Or enjoy a personal tour (maximum 4 guests) of the renowned South Wairarapa wine area, including the historic town of Greytown with its boutique stores amid pretty colonial buildings and lovely mature trees. Sip and sample your way around local wineries, artisan food producers and enjoy a local tasting lunch at one of our favourite foodie spots in the Wairarapa.

Lonely Planet agrees, and recently ranked Zest Food Tours as one of the top 10 walking tours for globetrotting foodies.
