This was super awesome...a MUST do!! Climbed a small volcano for 360 degree city view, saw the most beautiful beach I've ever seen, went through a forest to a huge waterfall, and had a wonderful lunch at a winery...all on one tour!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This tour was a wonderful way to see Auckland beyond the city. Mount Eden offered great views and insight into the area’s volcanic history, Piha Beach was stunning with its black sand and rugged coastline, and the short walk to Karekare Falls was a peaceful highlight. The winery stop at Soljans Estate was a relaxing way to end the day. Well-organized, well-paced, and a great mix of nature, culture, and scenery. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a diverse Auckland experience in one day.

My boyfriend and I loved this tour. Harriet was awesome, it was a public holiday and we made a few adjustments but otherwise everything followed the plan. It was very well organized, we didn't haven't to waste any time sitting around. Just to echo what everyone else has said, eat a big breakfast or bring snacks bc there won't be any food stops till lunch.

Harriet was a lovely, friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. The small group size was perfect for me as a solo traveler.

Harriet is AMAzing. She’s lovely, knows when to chime in and when to let everyone talk amongst themselves, and a wealth of knowledge. She and her partner own the biz…she goes WAY out of her way if needed (someone was disappointed the lunch had run out of fish and chips so she took him elsewhere to get it while we had lunch) but is chill and perfect otherwise. The actual tour for me was a little “just pretty good”, but maybe that was me. The wine was very “meh” but service was super accommodating. Lunch was great.
