What To Expect
Auckland Harbour Bridge
Symbol of the city: The bridge connects downtown Auckland to the North Shore. It's very important for daily travel and the city's economy.
Westhaven Marina
Westhaven Marina is the largest yacht marina in the Southern Hemisphere, located on the western edge of Auckland's city center in New Zealand. It has over 2,000 berths and is a popular spot for sailing, fishing, and other water activities. Many private boats and yachts are docked here. The marina offers beautiful views of the Auckland Harbour Bridge and the city skyline, and it's easily accessible by foot or bike from downtown. In addition to mooring spaces, it also has marine-related services, cafes, and walking paths along the waterfront. It is managed by Auckland Council and is part of the city’s sustainable waterfront development plan.

3.00Tour guide was knowledgeable about the places I we stopped at but didn't talk about all the places we were passing. Would have appreciated more information. Also, no water provided. Long tour with nothing to drink.

Miscues from Viator Regarding Bookings

3.00Sam was good, but Viator needs to get their act together regarding bookings. We booked the morning excursion, only to receive a communication from the tour operator a few days prior to our excursion that the morning timeslot was overbooked and we were being moved to the afternoon tour. I went onto the Viator app and looked and it said that tours for the morning spots were still available in addition to the afternoon. I replied with the information I saw online only to be informed by the tour operator that they had no control over what Viator did. When I received my voucher from Viator a couple days prior to the excursion, the timeslots on the voucher said that I was confirmed for the morning tour. When I received meeting instructions from the tour operator the day before the excursion, I was told that I would be in the afternoon session. I went ahead and did the afternoon excursion, but one of the stops that was listed on the morning excursion was left out. All in all, it worked ok for me, but certainly not a five star experience, and it would have been a disaster if I had had other plans for the afternoon. This was not an isolated situation, as we were not the only party in our group who had experienced this scenario with Viator.
A pleasant half day tour!

5.00If you want to know more about Auckland, this is the right trip for you. We have a small group of 4 people. Sam is our driver/tour guide. He is very friendly and knowledgable. It is a pleasant half day tour with perfect weather (65F-70F).

5.00Great tour. Would highly recommend. Take water and any other refreshments with you as although there are opportunities for restroom breaks no access to purchase anything on the tour. Sam was very friendly and informative and filled our time in each stop with useful information. Also offering his skills as photographer. We felt we now have a much better understanding of not only Auckland but New Zealand in general.
Good
