Tour in Wellington, NZ - Absolutely a great tour company! There were 8 of us travelling together in New Zealand and Australia, so Helen customized an all day tour for us in Wellington, NZ.... read more (and picked us up from the cruise port). Despite the rain all day, Helen made it a wonderful tour that was fun and very informative. We all had a lovely day. I would highly recommend this tour company as you won't be disappointed!!!!
Thanks, Helen, for a fabulous day that we won't forget! Janice

  Great way to see lots of Wellington Sites - I found this tour by accident, and was not disappointed. She explained a lot about her hometown, took us to many sights, especially ones that I really wanted to see... read more Zealandia, took us to the Cable Car Museum, rode the Cable Car and experienced how steep the hills are. We had high tea at the Roxy Cinema and Cafe. The food was excellent and walked around the Roxy and saw a real Oscar award and a display of "Precious". We went to Weta Caves and saw many props used in Peter Jackson's movies, drove around Seatoun Bay, saw Peter Jackson's house, site of the first Maori Landing of Kupe at Oruatiti Reserve, Mt. Victoria where we saw a 360 degree view of Wellington, the Rose Garden, Peace Flame Japanese Garden with waterfall, the "Beehive" Parliament grounds and to the Backbencher Gastropub to look at puppets of famous politicians. We had a very nice time and Helen. You won't be disappointed!

  Martinborough Wine Tour - Party of 5 adults looking around the great vineyards of New Zealand...what could be better? Our day trip was made better by having Helen from Silver Cloud be a... read more tour guide. She was fantastic. Very knowledgeable about the region & history. Her little stories kept us all enthralled. She was able to re-adjust our tour when time got tight due to our over stays in the wineries. (Sorry Helen). We can highly recommend Silver Cloud Luxury Tours....Best tour we've ever been on.

  Wonderful Day in Wellington! - Three of us were on a Celebrity cruise and wanted a tour of Wellington. We didn't want to do a ship excursion, but we were willing to share a... read more minivan with others. Then we found Helen and we were able to do a private tour and what a wonderful tour it was! She suggested an itinerary and she was just fine with us modifying it slightly. She took us to all of the highlights in Wellington including the Cable Car in Kelburn, Mt Victoria Lookout, Weta Workshop, St Paul's Church, Te Papa Museum (we loved the Gallipoli Exhibit and the Marae). We had lunch at the Roxy Theater which is a lovely art deco building. Helen was an excellent guide, providing lots of information about Wellington and she was always willing to answer our questions. She also added personal touches to the tour: bottles of water, tissues, mints and a "sweet" surprise when she dropped us off at the ship. It was obvious that Helen loves and is very proud of her city! I would recommend her tour to anyone who will be visiting Wellington! Thanks again, Helen, for a great day!

  Recently had the pleasure of a family tour (4 adults) with Helen & Jonathan (driver). Helen's knowledge of Wellington is amazing. The tour was of the city sights... read more & we loved every bit of it, especially the cable car ride & morning tea at the Roxy Theatre. Both Helen & Jonathan were accommodating & friendly, nothing was too much trouble. They let us take our time at the attractions that we were especially interested in & we were never hurried. We can't wait to cruise back to Wellington again take another tour with Helen. Thank you so much for our wonderful experience of Wellington & for the photos of our ship (Celebrity Solstice) departing Wellington.

  A Marvelous Day of Discovery - My wife and I spent yesterday with Helen, touring Martinborough wineries, visiting Kaitoke Regional Park, making a couple of important LOTR pilgrimages and learning a lot about the history and... read more culture of Aotearoa. As a professional educator and (almost) lifelong Kiwi, Helen makes for a superb tour guide. Her family includes long-established NZ wine growers as well, so her assistance in selecting wine tastings and purchases is impeccable. Everything about her tour is high quality, from the Mercedes Viano pickup clear through to the special chocolates at the end. Helen succeeded in delivering a most memorable day for us in this beautiful country. Highly, highly recommended!

  Amazing service with love. Helens service exceeded my expectations. She was very helpful, patient, organised some extra service and adding to this, she can tell intersting stories.

  Martinborough in one day - We had one day in Wellington on a cruise ship and wanted to maximize our day visiting wineries in Martinborough. We were lucky enough to find Helen with Silver Cloud... read more and it was a perfect day!!! She's incredibly informative about the wine industry in general having grown up around it and her passion and knowledge truly made the day a perfect 10. She helped us pick the best wineries to explore and peppered the day with great stories about the history of the area and personal anecdotes that really made it more special. We saw a larger group from our ship coming in to one of the stops and they didn't get a quarter of the special attention and experience that we did. Due to bad weather our port visit was delayed by a day and on very short notice Helen made changes to accommodate our group which really blew us away. If you're considering a tour here (wine related or otherwise) there is no better hostess!

  Simply Amazing!! - Helen was simply amazing! We booked a wine tour with Helen based on all the wonderful TripAdvisor reviews and we are so happy we did! She arranged a full... read more day of wine tasting, lunch, a brief tour of Wellington and even a stop at Rivendell for some views of the LOTR filing locations.

She not only had a perfect itinerary, but she also had waters, mints, cheese and crackers available to us - she seriously thought of everything! The wines were delicious and the stop for lunch (included) had the best lamb shank I’ve ever tasted!

My husband and I just got back to our cruise ship and can’t stop talking about how fantastic this tour and Helen’s hospitality was. This was defiitely the best wine tour we’ve taken, and we’ve taken many!

Thank you Helen, for such a amazing day!

  OUTSTANDING in every way! - What a fantastic and outstanding day we (3 of us) spent with Helen. She promptly picked us up and took us all over Wellington, catering to our every desire,... read more and then some, in her very comfortable car. She is a knowledgeable, humorous, patient, generous, connected and enjoyable tour guide. We took 6 different private tours throughout New Zealand and Helen's tour was by far the best! Even though we had our tour day planned, we expressed an interest in seeing wildlife and in a flash she had us at Zealandia with a private tour! High Tea at the Roxy was amazing. Helen's depth of local knowledge is great and we wished we had another day to spend with her. Do NOT hesitate to book a tour with her. It will be a highlight for you.
