Wonderful tour.

5.00We are so glad that we found this tour! It ended up being one of our favorites of our trip. We had Harriet as our guide, and she provided such great commentary and took us to such beautiful places (Piha Beach is unreal); also, she took the best photos of our family. The tour was also the perfect length—not so long that it consumes the entire day but not so short that you feel like you didn’t get anything out of it. Cannot recommend enough!
Jerome was a great guide...

5.00Had great communication starting previous day before tour regarding when and where I'd be picked up. My ship docked late, but Jerome, the tour guide/driver, picked up others ahead of me when I messaged and communicated I would not be available at the earlier arranged time. I appreciated his flexibility immensely. We walked on beautiful Piha Beach, visited Karekare Falls, ate lunch and tasted wine at Soljan's Winery, and traversed up Mt. Eden. It was a day filled with adventure with a small group (8 total), but at a pace fitting for the members. I highly recommend this tour and Jerome for his wonderful navigating skills and extensive knowledge on the environment!

4.00The only reason I rated this review a 4 is because we had people with mobility issues which we had to wait for giving less time at the other stops. Sometimes felt rushed.
Great Auckland experience,

5.00This was the most amazing tour which served as a wonderful introduction to New Zealand. Harriet, our guide and co owner of Voltours picked us up from our hotel and took my partner and I plus another couple to first stop, Mount Eden for a guided walk around this extinct volcano. We were then driven to Piha on the west coast for a walk on the black magnetic sand beach before stocking up on lunch which we had near the base of Karekare Falls. We then stopped by a winery for a tasting session before squeezing in another stop or two along the way back. Harriet had such a wealth of information on history, geography and wildlife which made the trip even more memorable . We would definitely recommend this tour and the company Voltours to friends and family

5.00Very comprehensive 6 hour tour if you have a short time in Auckland. Mike did a very nice job of explaining the creation of the islands and talking about Kiwi life in general. Stops were very beautiful and not crowded at all. Time spent at each was perfect. Winery luncheon was very nice.
Great tour if you are looking for something different. Good way to see Auckland and some of the surrounding countryside.
