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.

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.

The room is exactly as described in the photos. There were three adult occupants in the room. Stayed in the hotel for three nights from Dec 31 to Jan 3 and split the transactions to maximize the discount code. It's location is very centralized. two blocks away from St Patrick's Cathedral.

Great location, convenient for walking to the harbor or lively areas. The double room is comfortable, with a private bathroom, and a decent amount of space. The room is very clean. The front desk staff is courteous and offers temporary luggage storage. The kitchen utensils are not very complete, and some guests don't have the best habits when using the communal kitchen. Used dishes are often piled up in the sink without being washed immediately, which is a minor drawback.
