Picton Ferry Terminal is located close to Picton town centre in New Zealand’s breathtaking Marlborough region.
The Marlborough region is situated on the north eastern corner of the South Island. With its year-round sunny climate, Marlborough regularly records the highest sunshine hours in New Zealand. This is also the reason that Marlborough is New Zealand's largest grape growing and winemaking region, with over 65 wineries and over 4,000 hectares of land producing grapes.
Hertz’s rental office is conveniently located beside Picton Ferry Terminal, making it easy to explore the region. We recommend having a designated driver and setting out to explore the region’s wineries. Sauvignon Blanc is Marlborough's specialty, but Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Cabernet Sauvignon are also produced and well regarded in the region.
Grab a wine trail map and you’ll find it easy to navigate the vineyards at your own pace. If you feel like staying the night somewhere along the way, boutique B&Bs and rental accommodation can be found throughout the area.
After exploring Marlborough and its surrounds, drive to Picton Ferry Terminal where you can explore the Marlborough Sounds before making your way to New Zealand’s North Island.
