Things to do in Auckland

My family and I love the tour in overall. our tour guide, she was so professional and friendly (8:10 am 7/12). we are blessed with the good nice weather. i recommend to go in the morning, as it’s not that hot during summer.

Truly magical - one of the best experiences in New Zealand. The surroundings are surreal; it feels like another world. The tour includes behind-the-scenes insights and stories that will make your journey even more amazing.

I highly recommend this tour! It was incredibly comfortable, perfectly organized, and our guide, Anthony, was absolutely fantastic! Friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. The entire experience was educational, enjoyable, and truly satisfying from start to finish.

This small group tour was great with two very friendly and interesting guides to drive us through the amazing region of Auckland, Cambridge, Hamilton and Waitomo. The journey to the first stop in the Alexander Farm in Watamata to get to the movie set Hobbiton was extraordinary accross the countryside, with our two guides full of anecdotes about the history of the land. The visit of the movie set itself, with a great guide, was incredible, with a story to every Hobbit hole of the set and many fun stories of the behind the scenes of the movie shooting. The visit ends with the exploration of two remodeled Hobbit holes in which it is so fun to take photos among the furnitures. The Hobbiton tour is followed with a drink at the tavern the Green Dragon. After the movie set, it was fine having a well deserved lunch at a local authentic restaurant, and to the next step: the exploration of the mysterious Waitomo Glowworm Caves, a wonder of NZ, with a passionate local guide. Thanks Cheeky Kiwi!

very friendly staff, views were beautiful even though it was overcast when we went, if you’ve been to other towers around the world it’s definitely a must do to compare how high you can go!

Value for money if you select from their menu of activities, which covers a lot.

A steep price to pay, but it was a good experience. We made lots of stops, maybe around five. We saw geothermal mud pools, saw the Lady Knox Geyser eruption, explored Thermal Wonderland, visited the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest, saw a stream with blue water (don’t know the name), and made a pitstop at the animal-shaped buildings in Tirau. The guide drove nicely and was helpful.

a fun water adventure! including yellow eye penguin ! lovely !

We had such a great time on the Auckland Whale & Dolphin Watching tour! The guides were also marine biologists, which made the trip even more meaningful—we really appreciated their insights about the animals and how they track the chances of spotting dolphins and whales. We were lucky enough to see at least six whales that day, even though they didn’t get very close to the boat. The ride was a little choppy, but that’s just part of being out on the ocean. The tour itself was very well organized, and overall it was an awesome and memorable experience!
