Your Guide

Fleur Smith

Hello! Thanks for taking the time to look through our upcoming tours. I’m so excited to step into the role of your local guide and fellow foodie!

Here’s a bit about me - Recently recognised in New Zealand’s Top 50 Women in Food & Drink, I’m the director behind Treats of Taupō, the annual festival celebrating our region’s incredible makers, chefs, and producers.

I’ve spent the past few years bringing together the best of Taupō’s culinary scene, from honey harvesters and brewers to chefs crafting unforgettable dining experiences, and I’m proud to be part of putting Taupō firmly on the foodie map.

These curated tours are a personal passion project, designed to showcase the creativity, warmth, and flavour that make this region so special. I can’t wait to share it with you.
