As New Zealand’s Food and Wine Country, Hawke’s Bay attracts more than 1.5 million visitors every year, often in search of delicious food and wine experiences.
And yet, travel to the eastern coast of New Zealand’s North Island is also a rite-of-passage for the smallest of visitors, with family experiences aplenty and usually served with a glass of wine for parents.
Families come in Bordeaux too.
With the summer holidays on the horizon, families have never been more welcome in the vineyards in and around Bordeaux. Although children will not be tasting the wines (but there’s always grape juice), there are plenty of activities designed just for them and others they can share with their parents.
