Enjoyed an absolutely stunning day out with my daughter had so much fun figuring out the clues and gathering our goodies. Loved the activities, loved that Phillipa supported other local businesses in the area. The picnic left us full and … More happy and the view at the last point was amazing. Couldn't recommend this enough. You will not be disappointed.

What an incredible service. We had a newborn baby so instead of doing the whole picnic experience in Matakana Philippa so kindly packaged everything beautifully and sent it to our home. Everything was divine and it was such a treat to see … More lots of local Matakana products included.
So many lovely touches and Village Picnic go above and beyond to create a special experience and memories.
Thanks again

Had an incredible time!!! What a fantastic idea. We had 2 teenagers and an 8 year old and all were thoroughly entertained the whole day. Great level of clues and amazing food and places to visit. Will definitely be purchasing in the future … More for gifts. Highly recommend!

The village picnic experience was provided as a birthday gift from my sister. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the day out experiencing Matakana and the surrounding region. We enjoyed solving the problems to find our next location of interest … More and finished the day enjoying our picnic looking out over the water to Kawau Island. It was a fantastic day.

What an awesome day out exploring and doing something different as a family, and who doesn't love a picnic!

Definitely recommend.

Received the Mystery Picnic as a birthday present, not knowing what to expect, hence, the name I was really impressed. Visiting very local spots around Matakana it was great to explore the region and actually visit some new places (not … More the very touristy spots). Picnic items were delicious and super high quality. Would recommend to others! Note: Best to make sure you allocate the whole day to the trip as can spend more time in each destination.

Absolutely epic day. Thank you Philippa for organising such a fun event. We received a family mystery picnic as a Christmas gift and it would have to be one of THE coolest gifts we've ever received! Couldn't recommend this highly … More enough!! A beautiful sunny day too!! 🙂

This was bought as a birthday present for my husband. We had no idea what it was or what it was all about.
We booked a weekend stay in Matakana and included a couple of friends and off we went.
First stop was to pick up the first bits … More and the clues. Following riddles and puzzles etc. We went to different places picking up bits along the way.
What a cool experience, it took us about 4 1/2 hours, went to some lovely places and did different activities. We also just took our time to enjoy the places, getting picnic chairs out to sit on the beach and have a drink part way through.
We all throughly enjoyed it, if you do this book the day out, take the time to chat to the awesome people along the way and enjoy the scenery and experience.
Would definitely do it again if they change the clues/places etc. A lot of fun and something so different.

Amazing day out finished with a beautiful spread of food! We've passed through Matakana a few times, but it was great to explore for a few hours to discover a few of its culinary delights.

We had the most amazing day out and really enjoyed the Mystery Picnic! It was so fun figuring out all the clues and driving around beautiful Matakana. We enjoyed every stop and how well it was organised. The picnic spread at the end was … More so yummy - we couldn't have asked for anything more, such a fun day 🙂

This was a great day out we got a chance to go to places we had not seen before. We left Auckland at 8.30 and we got back home at 6.30p.m We took our time and really explored. A fun day out.

Thanks for a really nice day out. We really enjoyed the tasty picnic spread, especially visiting the various artisans to collect it along the way. Some beautiful new spots with incredible views we have never been to and it’s right on Auckland … More doorstep!
