Description differences but good

3.00When looking at the description " romantic Auckland sunset tour with winery and thermal pool", our understanding of the tour was met with courtesy and professionalism of a local driver raised in the area. His knowledge was great, good conversation and would work with again. the tour description of thermal pool was a location called palm springs which had 4 pools, shallow cold water, warm pool with adults and children, warmer thermal pool with most adults and a hotter for adults only. the pools were up to 1.7 meters and clean. lockers and changing areas available. not romantic, but nice . The winery (the hunting Lodge) was a winery with a restaurant, outdoor and covered Ala cart area with wine/ beer , but no wine tasting was offered as described. the food was great and the wine we did have was very good. the sunset was spectacular and black sand beach was great. Was enjoyable and nice way to see the northern area of Auckland,
a great tour but not romantic

4.00This was a great tour but not what they listed it as. It's called a romantic tour but we had a guide with my husband and I the entire time. We three ate dinner together at the same table, etc. We had a chaperone. Everything was kind of weird. We got to the winery and they were closed for dinner! No reservation, appearently. Our guide, Sean, took us to another restaurant and it was delicious. Then we went to thermal pools that felt nice but basically they were warm-water swimming pools, and they had other people in them, including children, so again not romantic. Then he drove us to the west coast to Muriwai beach and that was excellent! The scenery was beautiful, and he timed it so that we'd be there at sunset, and it was far prettier than the picture shown on the tour ad. He also showed took us to a gannet nesting colony that was amazing, and I'm not a bird lover. Overall a great tour, but not romantic.

5.00Sean was our tour guide of both our first and last day in Auckland. We were a group of 8 female marathon runners from the US, and this was our first time to visit NZ. Sean was very knowledgeable , friendly and efficient! He explained and showed us many beautiful places. The winery was very beautiful and they served delicious dinner, paired with excellent wines. We sampled a variety of different wines and were very impressed. You can also buy gifts there. The thermal pool soothed our tired legs from having running the race the day before. Sean took us to see the black sand beach and the beautiful sunset. He even took us to a gelato place which was still open by 9 pm so we could enjoy the icecream! We were very happy with his exceptional guide, and would recommend his company wholeheartedly! Thank you so much, Sean!👍
Great Evening at the Beach

5.00Sean was one of the most accommodating guides you can ask for. He did everything humanly possible for us to get the most out of this tour. When we decided to pass on an after dinner thermal bath he suggested we take the ferry back to the city (he met us there to take us back to our hotel).
Nice and relaxing tour.

5.00The ride is really beautiful. The stop for wine tasting and small dinner is simple but friendly. The sunset is a little spoiled by the clouds...but the view is beautiful. The top is at the end, the thermal bath, really good, very relaxing...I recommend this tour. Our guide Sean and his assistant are really friendly, very helpful. Thank you very much.

5.00Being a solo traveler, finding a tour company who will run a tour, even if you are the only person booked, is impossible. Finding someone who immediately puts you at ease, describes Sean completely. From the moment I buckled-up my seatbelt, I felt like I was with a friend who was showing me around his city. As for the Sunset tour itself? Unique, well-thought out, relaxing, toured places other tour companies ignore, and showed me a different side of the Auckland area away from the tourist "hot spots". I will go on this tour again if I ever get back to Auckland.
Great half day tour!

5.00Spectacular day with Sean. Pools were relaxing and sunset was gorgeous. Relaxing drive with a very small group hitting multiple spots. Highly recommend.

5.00Really fun and relaxing experience. The pools were great, clean changing area and bathrooms too. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate and I missed the sunset on my tour but the beach was still a gorgeous sight.
Relaxing adventure awaits you!

5.00Sean was a great guide! So knowledge about New Zealand and so nice! The geothermal pools were so relaxing. It sadly rained very hard when we went on the tour, so we were unable to see the sunset but Sean made sure we still had an amazing time! Will definitely do again the next time I’m in Auckland 😀
