Top Auckland Day Trips

Our trip started out with helping a Little Penguin safely move away from the vessel. A few of us noticed it and brought it to the crew's attention. The crew were very concerned and compassionate about the penguin and did all the right things to ensure its safety before heading out. For me, that really spoke to their commitment to marine animals and that alone made my experience on the catamaran complete before we even left the dock. The trip was excellent. The crew are all knowledgeable about marine life and shared many facts and kept a close eye out for sealife. I love being out on the salt water getting sprayed. I was dressed for it and I would recommend that anyone going out on the safari, dress warmly and wear rain gear unless you choose to stay off the bow. We saw various sea birds and common dolphins. That was lovely. The crew handed out vouchers for a free safari (that don't expire) because we didn't see any whales. That's pretty awesome, in my books. It's a great 4 hours, especially if you love getting out on the salt water and hanging out with some marine life 😊.

We had a fantastic day with our guide, Harriet. She gave us so much insight into Auckland and the history of the city as well as the importance of native species to New Zealand. Each stop was well worth the visit and I’d happily recommend this tour to friends visiting Auckland.

Absolutely beautiful, be sure to bring good shoes for hiking a little. You may want to bring water shoes for the hot water beach. A change of clothes and a microfiber towel. All in all great experience, and scenery I loved my guides with Cheeky Kiwi Trent and Dave very informative, polite, entertaining
