Auckland City Highlights Afternoon Beach and Rainforest Tour

Auckland City Highlights Afternoon Beach and Rainforest Tour

This tour combines the very best of Auckland city in the morning, with the best of Auckland nature in the afternoon. The Auckland City tour is an easy morning introduction to the diverse city of Auckland. The tour has plenty of photo opportunities and includes views from Mount Victoria in Devonport, which are not to be missed!
The afternoon nature tour is a great introduction to New Zealand's nature and visits some of the stunning rainforest scenery, as well as the glorious Piha Beach. Easy walking tracks and dramatic coastlines are only a short drive from Auckland's city centre. Our experienced guides and small group size means you will be well looked after. In the afternoon we also include a New Zealand style afternoon tea including biscuits/cookies and tea, coffee or juice.
