What To Expect
Auckland Harbour Bridge
Standing sentinel across the Waitemata Harbour, the Auckland Harbour Bridge is a crucial piece of infrastructure. Harbour bridge is the only bridge which connects the metropolis of the central business district to the North Shore and beyond to Northland.
North Head Historic Reserve
The location of Maungauika at the entrance to the Waitematā Harbour made it an important coastal defense. It was fears of a Russian invasion in the 1880s that led to the construction of a fort and the three disappearing gun batteries dotted along the maunga (mountain). Norht Head Historic Reserve might be change to Kauri Tree Forrest on afternoon session.

Enjoyable and like a semi-private tour

5.00I appreciated Sim who was the driver and the local guide for this local tour sent me a clear message via WhatsApp about the pick up time and location one day prior to the tour. She was cheerful throughout the tour. Professional and helped take pictures for me being a solo traveller. I enjoyed the spots we stopped by, particularly various areas including those beautiful houses we passed by. The Nissan Serena 7 seat car I rode on was very comfortable even though I sat at the last row. We only had 4 passengers so it was like a semi-private tour.
Auckland City Tour is a must do!

5.00Fantastic! I’m so happy I got to see all the highlights of Auckland, including its outlying areas! Because we were such a small group, with an incredible skilled and well informed guide, we were able to go on hikes on volcanoes and and parks, and even get inside one of the hidden naval guns! The guide was excellent, friendly, highly efficient, and a great driver! She got us everywhere we wanted to see! I highly recommend this tour and this operator.

5.00We had a small group, only four people so we received plenty of attention from our guide who was terrific. We felt we saw everything we expected and more. The Winter gardens were in full bloom and magnificent. We saw Aucklnd from atop the many hills and parks. This was surely as advertised and worth the premium price. There were so many things we saw and did and had many photo opportunities it's. We were dropped off at Sky Tower as requested as our driver was flexible. Warning, there were lots of climbing uphill so this tour is not for people who have any disibility walking steps or climbing steep hills. Also, the winds were signicant that day near the bridge and climbing the hills, so dress appropriately.
Wonderful day in a beautiful city
