Great overview of Auckland - Great to get the history and layout of the city by an experienced guide. The weather was really rainy so he taylored the trip so we made the best of the trip

Great way to see highlights of Auckland! - Just what we needed during our first few hours in Auckland. The tour hit some highlights in and around the city. Our guide was friendly and engaging and the vehicle was very comfortable. The small group made it all very personable.

Jude gook us and three... - Jude took us and three others to the Westhaven Marina; the Kauri Glen Reserve where we walked on a boardwalk through a dense forest of protected trees; Maungawhau, the volcanic cone of Mount Eden; and the Auckland Domain Wintergardens, which had a large gorgeous greenhouse full of seasonal flowers in bloom and even vegetables! It was a great way to learn about Auckland between the time we debarked from our cruise ship and when our early evening flight left for the USA. Jude had a lot of interesting things to say about the areas we drove through and was willing to answer any questions we had. The tour was definitely worth it and Jude was a great guide.

Great way to see the sites of Auckland - This was an intimate tour with just five guests in a small, very comfortable van. Sean, our tour guide, was warm, friendly, informative and extremely helpful. We got to see many of the sites of interest around Auckland in a relaxing and enjoyable way. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting this City.

Thoughtful and Thorough Tour - Brendon was so knowledgeable and well organized for our small 5 person group. His van was spotless and had water and he used every minute to show us so much of Auckland (suburban views, historic forts, Botanic Gardens) plus explain the culture and lifestyle there.
