Our guide Jerome was very knowledgeable and relatable. He pointed out important landmarks and added flavor to the tour with things only a local would know. The tour let us see some of the natural beauty of the land and allowed us to enjoy wines from a local producer.

Lovely orientation to the Auckland region. Gorgeous views, tasty wine, and knowledgeable commentary from a very friendly guide (Jerome). Highly recommend as a starting point for exploring what the area has to offer.

We had a wonderful sightseeing tour in Auckland today. Much of that was thanks to our fantastic guide, Harriet. She was very knowledgeable about the city, and the surrounding areas, and she shared insights, factoids, and stories throughout the trip that made every stop meaningful. Harriet was also an excellent driver, so the entire journey felt relaxed and enjoyable. Another highlight of the tour was the great company. The other four passengers in our group were friendly and genuinely fun to travel with, which made the experience even more memorable. If you are visiting the city and want to see a lot while learning about its culture, geography, and history, I highly recommend this tour. A big thank you to Harriet for making it such a fantastic experience!
