"During my 6 weeks down in New Zealand for the Lions Tour, without doubt one of the finest days was when myself and friends went on a wine tasting tour of Hawke's Bay with Prinsy's. Hamish our guide was great and of course the scenery and wine were outstanding. On my next visit to New Zealand, a return trip is a MUST."
- Gareth Chilcott, Bath, England (ex Lions)
