Your adventure begins with a pickup from Auckland CBD followed by a scenic drive through rolling countryside as we journey north to the beautiful Bay of Islands. Along the way you will enjoy views of lush farmland, native bush and picturesque small towns that showcase the charm of Aotearoa.

Upon arrival at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds you will embark on a guided tour of New Zealand’s most important historic site where the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840. You will have the opportunity to explore the Te Kōngahu Museum of Waitangi where powerful exhibits tell the story of the Treaty through personal narratives and interactive displays. You will also visit Te Rau Aroha Museum of the Price of Citizenship which honours the service and sacrifice of Māori.

A highlight of your visit includes witnessing a traditional Māori cultural performance, bringing the history and spirit of the land to life through powerful Haka, song, and storytelling. You will also see Ngā Toki Matawhaorua which is the world’s largest ceremonial waka, a stunning representation of Māori seafaring heritage and cultural pride.

After a rich day immersed in New Zealand’s founding story, you will return back to Auckland, leaving you with a deeper understanding of the nation’s identity and a lasting impression of its cultural heart.
