Wellington, Mangere Mountain, One Tree Hill, and Mt Eden, with a guide. Along the way, keep watch for native New Zealand wildlife and admire panoramic views over the city.

5.00Mike picked us up at our hotel arriving at the time he noted and was a wonderful tour guide. He provided just the right amount of details and was very flexible as well. I highly recommend this tour as you will walk away with a different view of Auckland after visiting these different sites. Mike, thank you so much Kevin, Tammy & Amanda.
