Top Auckland Day Trips - page 15

Paul is so knowledgeable and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour of Auckland. He drove us to places we would never have known to visit or had the time. The crater was amazing to see! How often would you have the opportunity again! We watched someone bungee jump of the harbour bridge! Visited local areas like Parnal. We had a lovely4 hr trip!

We had the best experience with our driver Jeoff from Cheeky Kiwi! Made the ride to Hobbiton very smooth and comfortable, giving us lots of history on New Zealand. Hobbiton was absolutely beautiful and our tour guide there, James, was so much fun to be around. Definitely would recommend.

If you’re wondering whether you should do this tour, you should. It’s incredible. The crew is amazing and seeing the marine mammals in person and in their natural habitat is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I went with my mom in May and we had such a great tour with Cayla, Toni, John, and Graham. We spotted at least three, possibly four different whales and dozens of dolphins and learned so much about how the whales and birds rely on dolphins to round up fish for food. To learn it and then see it in action was an unforgettable experience. I truly admire the work this tour does for marine science, public education, and running a unique NZ experience. Thanks to the whole crew!

We had a wonderful time in this tour. The geothermal areas were fascinating and unlike anything we have ever experienced. The Maori cultural aspects were interesting. Wayne (our driver and guide) was very helpful and pleasant. The pick up and drop off was very efficient. Highly recommended!

Traveled from auckland walked through rainforest guide was very knowledgeable in explaining different birds in rainforest. Traveled along coast ending at piha beach an absolutely stunning coastline where we enjoyed tea with honey highly recommend guide was excellent.

Lord of the Rings was too long ago, can't really remember the storyline. But our tour with you to the movie set won't be forgotten anytime soon. Thank you for a good time Dave, who is super informative and genuinely knowledgeable in what he is sharing. You made the difference! We are lucky to be guided by a fan of The Hobbit when it's time to tour the ground of Hobbiton; Rob who lead us along 'the Middle Earth' and let us oohh enjoying "a morning to be good on".

My sister and I had a great time with Matt as our guide. We decided to do te puia and the Polynesian spa and I would definitely recommend both! We started our day at te puia and learning about the culture and natural wonders of te puia and Rotorua. A truly wonderful experience with some great information. We ended our trip at the Polynesian spa and it’s was so relaxing! It’s not something I would ever choose to do personally but my sister really wanted to it and convinced me, and we both had a wonderful time. I would recommend bringing your own bathing suit and flip flops for the spa, both are available for purchase at the spa tho. Shampoo conditioner and lotion are all available at the spa for free use as well so don’t worry about bringing your toiletries. We decided to have lunch at the spa cafe and it was super tasty (get one of the fresh squeezed juices!) the spa has some great skin care to try out and purchase as well but I do think te puia had the better gift shop all around (one of the best that we’ve been to over the last few days if I’m being honest we did the majority of our souvenir shopping there) over all highly recommend and I would do it again in a heart beat.

Danny drove around Auckland bay, stopping along the way for over views of the city, a visit to the glass arboretum, a walk around the War museum, a moderately easy short walk up Mt Eden crater, a lovely wine tasting at Soljan’s vineyard and lunch at River Head restaurant. All and more, as described in his Viator description. Wonderful day!
