We had a wonderful time on this cruise. The Hauraki Gulf was breathtaking, and the guided tour provided both comfort and interesting commentary throughout the journey. Even though we did not get to see the whales this time, the experience was still very enjoyable and memorable. The stop at Man O’ War Vineyards was a highlight—relaxing, scenic, and the perfect opportunity to enjoy local wines and food at our own pace. The crew were welcoming and attentive, making the day feel well-organized and pleasant. A great experience overall, and we would happily recommend this tour.

The tour with Allpress Olive Groves and Mudbrick vineyard was great. Cable bay experience could have been better but the lunch served at the Batch was absolutely delicious with great views. Waiheke is worth a visit!

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!

I really enjoyed ziplining on Waiheke Island and would definitely do it again when I'm in Auckland. All the staff were very friendly. Lucy and Sophie, two amazing guides, were there to ensure my safety and keep me entertained during the experience, so I felt safe and relaxed. P.S. It was supposed to be a small group tour, but I ended up having a private tour because some people didn't show up.

My first time ever doing skydiving. The ground crew Glenn + Joe was friendly and informative. They explained to you all the details regarding the package you took and additional photos or videos you would want to add. Jacob my jump staff was amazing. Friendly and make sure that I'm safe and enjoyed through out the skydiving experience. The pilot Sam + Max ensures all the participants seat and buckle up safely before all of us jump out from the plane. The driver Pierce + Connor drop me back to the hotel, well you guys did okay but it will be better if you could ON the air-conditioning in the transportation van. I really need some fresh air in the van. Thank you Skydive Auckland for the amazing experiences.

The Auckland Bridge Bungee was an absolute 10/10 experience and something I would recommend without hesitation. From start to finish, everything was well run and the staff made you feel confident and excited. The jump itself was unreal, with incredible views and an adrenaline rush that’s hard to beat. The bridge climb was also awesome and added even more to the experience, giving a unique perspective of Auckland and making the whole adventure feel extra special. Definitely a must do for anyone visiting or living in Auckland.

It was easy to retrieve our tickets - just scan the barcode at the ticket office and the staff will run you through what you need to do before hopping on the boat . The cruise itself is very pleasant ride and spacious. For man's O war. Pack a picnic for the day and you can relax on the sand and enjoy the water . The winery itself is phenomenal the staff are friendly and the food is amazing.
