Welcome to Marlborough a stones throw away from vineyards and the Marlborough Sounds. Fly into Blenheim and rent a car from the Pegasus Blenheim Airport Branch, walk out the doors and experience the numerous vineyards and wineries that make Marlborough so enticing.
Attend the multitude of festivals that occur annually. Starting off with the Blues Brews and Barbeques on the first weekend of February, followed in quick succession by the Marlborough Wine and Food Festival which attracts people from around the world to sample the best wines in the region. The Marlborough Sounds is known for its seafood and can be sampled in one day at the Havelock Mussel Festival in March. You can then burn off that wine and seafood with the Forrest Estate Graperide, starting from Renwick you cycle in a loop through the Queen Charlotte Drive and Havelock back to Renwick to quench your thirst with the latest Sauvignon Blanc Reserve. After all that if you're still interested in seeing the area try the St Clairs 1/2 Marathon in May.

“ The lady in Blenheim is a gem, she was great on arrival, was able to store the car while we walked the Queen Charlotte Track, and delivered the keys back to Wilderness Guides. Also she remembered us when we returned and where we had been. ”
