What are people saying about Auckland

The Classic: our most popular electric bike tour of Auckland's Highlights

Bradley_C, Mar 2026

Powering the hills

The tour uses power assist bikes which can be set to varying levels of power when you pedal. This give good control and is very handy with stop and start urban routes. The steepest hills are easy. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and had many good insights on Auckland, and New Zealand history and culture.

Excellent tour. Highly recommend.

This was an excellent tour of Auckland. We were very comfortable in a Mercedes Van and our guide, Danny, was very knowledgeable about the area. We really enjoyed his commentary. We had taken a previous half-day tour that went to a few of the same spots, but Danny showed us more at those sights that we had missed on our previous tour. We stopped at a lovely restaurant where we purchased wonderful, tasty dishes and enjoyed a beautiful view. It was truly an enjoyable day.

Rotorua Experience

Great tour, if you’re wanting two and one tour, this is a great . The tour guides were fantastic, the tree walk was fantastic and a little scary if you’re a great height, but it’s well worth it. The Geysers & Maori cultural tour was also the thermometer and great to see.

The Hobbiton Movie Set Signature Guided Tour from Auckland

Alissa_W, Jan 2026

I’m Going On an Adventure

My husband and I had a great time at Hobbiton! If you’re traveling around New Zealand, first know that from Tauranga is a shorter drive (50min) to Hobbiton than from Auckland (2.5hr). However this tour was very well organized and I highly recommend it. Our tour guide was Arman, and he was very friendly and knowledgeable. After you pickup the guests from various hotels you have a 2:15hr drive to hobbiton through the beautiful countryside. Once you arrive, you’ll be able to use the restrooms, order coffee and/or food at the cafe and peak into the shop. Then you will go on your 2.5hr Hobbiton tour. Another short bus ride to the set, where you’ll disembark, and walk through the Shire. Our tour guide in Hobbiton was Andrew and he was delightful. There are an abundant of photo opportunities & Andrew does not hurry you through. However, Andrew also does not wait for you to catch up to talk at certain spots, to ensure the tour keeps moving. So if you are busy taking photos, you may miss a few of the facts he has. I did not feel upset by this though, so it’s your prerogative! You get to walk through a hobbit home and are encouraged to touch, sit, etc all of the items. Then you end the walking tour at the Green Dragon for a complimentary beverage (beer, cider, or ginger beer). There are also some snack for purchase here as well. Once that’s completed and you make your way back to gift shop, you’re loaded back on the bus to Auckland. We were given the opportunity to make a detour to ice cream and a quaint town in Cambridge. Highly suggest saying yes to both if your group has time.
