Orchard and Winery Tour

Your MAMAKU BLUE tour includes being met on arrival by our friendly staff before you are escorted to our "air conditioned" people carrier that will whisk you off into the blueberry orchard. Spend time discovering the story behind Mamaku Blue and learn the steps involved in getting the blueberry from the bush to the market.

From the orchard you will visit the sorting and packaging shed, where you will learn the intricacies of the export blueberry market and some of the steps that make MAMAKU BLUE berries so special. Your will then proceed on through to the wine making department, have a chat to the wine maker and learn about blueberry wines.

From there it is back on to the people carrier to be delivered to the specialised blueberry retail shop and café, were you can taste a range of blueberry products including our wines and Liqueurs. You may like to make a purchase of Blueberry products and enjoy one of the chefs' delicacies such as a hot blueberry pie or muffin with your choice of Dilmah tea or freshly brewed coffee.

If time permits, stay a little longer and enjoy a special blueberry lunch. Our function room caters for large groups.

You may also like to browse through the memorabilia of Mamaku in our museum.

Our basic orchard/winery and tastings tour takes approximately 60 minutes, but be sure to allow additional time to enjoy the Tastings and other treats available.
