Hastings’ standout excursion combines two New Zealand treasures – wine and architecture. The Art Deco City & Wine Private Tour packs serious value into 5 hours, whisking visitors through Hawke’s Bay wine country while showcasing the city’s stunning 1930s buildings. With door-to-door luxury transport and expert guides, you’ll skip the navigation headaches and focus on the experience. Though wine tastings and meals aren’t included, this well-organized tour hits all the right spots. I especially love the balance of cultural sightseeing with vineyard visits – it’s the smartest way to sample Hastings’ highlights in half a day.
