5.00Great way to see Auckland in a short amount of time. Our drive/tour guide Jim was fantastic, he went above and beyond to cram as much he could in the time frame we had. The only negative was the size of the car, not big enough to accommodate 4 seniors as well as the driver
NZ Auckland tour was excellent!
