The popularity of organic and locally sourced food has lead to this chilly hot new food safari in Clevedon, 35 minutes south of downtown Auckland.
This is the ultimate in a 'Gate to Plate' experience, do not expect the ordinary stuff . . .this is what is . . .a genuine food experience.
There are no snakes or lions on this safari but you will be treated to an up close and personal experience of buffalo being milked and oysters being shucked . . . to name just a few options.
This is an experience you will never forget, understanding good food and the lengths taken to get it to your plate.
Your day begins at 9am and ends at 4.30pm at the Ferry Terminal in Auckland by boat. All other transport is via a rock 'n' roll bus to get to destinations over land.
You will be treated to a banquet of refreshments, local delicacies, local wine and beverages to cater for your every need. Quirky entertainment and interesting interludes will also complete your day.
Each experience is carefully detailed for your group (min 10 people) and bookings are essential.
