Perfect Day for Sailing
We were searching for a sunset dinner cruise, but most reviews suggested opting for a sailing cruise and dining at a restaurant. Since the food on dinner cruises is not particularly impressive, we decided to take this sailing tour. It turned out to be a delightful and memorable experience during our vacation. We thoroughly enjoyed watching all the sailboats in the bay. The crew was fantastic, providing us with refreshing drinks and delicious cookies. Afterward, we headed to a fantastic restaurant located right at the harbor for a satisfying meal.

First of all, naming...
First of all, naming names, a huge shoutout to the entire team, i especially had a great time getting to chat with Sana about the marine wildlife, and was able to get a good picture about the diving scene in North island, Sana was extremely knowledgeable about the best spots to go in North island for diving, and i enjoyed our interactions discussing the impact of Urchin barrens, and their impact on marine ecosystems in both Australia and New Zealand.
Throughout the rest of the trip, Kayla was great at pointing out and discussing the wildlife we saw during the tour, but always knew when to just let the tour group enjoy the moment, never over-explaining or adding unnecessary commentary just to fill silence.
Overall the entire experience was nothing short of breath taking, it was a privilege to be able to get so close to such beautiful wildlife, and me and my partner walked away with a commitment to be more aware of how we wash our clothes, or what we consume after being educated during an after-tour presentation on the environmental impacts of current typical societal behaviours.
Safe to say we won't be using single-use plastics anytime soon.
Thanks again team for the tour, the next time we come back to NZ, we'll be doing some Diving.

Auckland Foodie tour
Great experience our tour guide Kath was fabulous. She was not only knowledgeable about the food scene in Auckland but also an expert on the history of the city. The food was great. I advise you not to eat a big breakfast. We had a fun and interactive group of seven.

Stars and Stripes forever
For a child of the 80’s this was a bucket list item. Sailing on an America’s Cup yacht,
JPN 41, raced in San Diego as part of the challenger series. The crew led by Julia was professional and engaging. They let everyone take at turn at the helm and gave us a great experience. You can’t beat sailing on a racing yacht in Auckland harbor!

Hobbiton and the glow worm caves
Wonderful experience even though the morning consisted of pouring down rain. The rain finally eased when we arrived at Hobbiton. It is beautiful and magical. We then had an ale at the Green Dragon pub and went to see the glow worm caves. It also is amazing. We made the drive back to Auckland but stopped for some Hokey Pokey ice cream. Excellent day and there were plenty of bathroom stops. Our driver/guide was named Warren and he is excellent.

A great way to spend a quick weekend in Auckland! Our guide, Pearl, was so much fun and extremely accommodating. She also taught us about the Māori culture. In addition to seeing Hobbiton and the Caves, the drive featured the stunning New Zealand countryside.

My personal experience...
My personal experience during the city sightseeing tour with Mr. John yesterday is indescribable. He provided a tour that was both exciting and memorable, showcasing his expertise. His extensive knowledge of the history, culture and more was impressive. I truly appreciated the opportunity to see the city and all that it has to offer.

Views through the clouds
It was easy to exchange our vouchers for tickets.
Our day was full of clouds and raindrops but the views that we saw and photos that we took were still phenomenal. We could see the weather and clouds coming and going which gave us teasing glimpses of Auckland and its harbour. Do this!

Auckland Day Trip
I could not have asked for a better guide in Jason. He was amazing and full of so much information. I unfortunately had to get off one stop before finishing trip for medical appointment and Jason showed me where to go and very helpful. Thank you to Jason and team for outstanding service and I thoroughly recommend this trip to everyone.
