Waiheke Island Corporate Events & Tours Information

Let me build you a great day or night out in Waiheke.

Take the hassle out of organising a corporate event for your business with a dedicated planning dream team Karen and Sharon we will build you the best bespoke tour you have ever had, and ensure we have everything just right for you and your team.

We can build tours that mix and match craft beer breweries, whisky tours, gin tastings, wine tastings, ziplining, treasure hunts, team building games, scenery, stony batter tunnels, fishing trips, and archery at Wild on Waiheke.
We can also arrange all elements of your Waiheke experience, including lunch/dinner bookings, ferry tickets, activities and private transportation to and from the Island.

All our tours are accompanied by a local guide with extensive knowledge of the Island’s history, culture, people, places and produce. And all our vehicles are air-conditioned with a seatbelt for your safety and comfort. We can cater up to 120 people.

My tour drivers are trained in facilitating games and quizzes en route if need be. And of course Bluetooth speakers for some bangers when the time is right.

Please call or email us and we would be more than happy to help.
