5.00Our short Auckland experience was great. Sharma was very knowledgeable and took the time to give us an in-depth background of all the key landmarks and their history. He took fun photos of us and we thoroughly enjoyed both he and his wife’s company. We highly recommend this tour with Sharma whether you are in Auckland for a few hours or a few days.

5.00With a free day in Auckland our party of four booked this tour which turned out to be a very delightful experience. Our tour guide H Sharma kept us informed of his arrival time as traffic that morning was complicated due to an accident and arrived at our hotel in a timely manner. He was warm and friendly with a great sense of humor. Our group was then transported to the high points of the city and told of the history of the city, with time out for lunch on our own it turned out to be a great full day. We felt as though we had seen more of the area than we expected and were completely satisfied as we were dropped off at our hotel. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wishing to see all of Auckland on a limited time schedule. Mr Sharma did an outstanding job.
Great introduction to the city

5.00Our guide, Sharma, was very good. He made sure that everyone had a good time. He provided good commentary on all the sites we visited. This is the best introduction to the city for visitors. Efficient way to get around the town and see the main attractions.
