A GREAT DAY! - We had a great day with Harriet. A wonderful way to spend the day getting to know Auckland. From pre trip communication throughout the day everything was wonderful. There were only 2 of us and she catered the day to our interests and requests. Great commentary along with great conversations. Highly recommend. Thanks Harriet for a great day!

Fab day with Harriet covering the Auckland area! - Took this tour on a cruise stop. We had a great day with Harriet on this tour. She's engaging and knowledgeable and her information was very informative. There were only 4 of us in her SUV and it was wonderful to not be on another bus. Great views from extinct volcano outside the city and quite a winding ride over to the west coast lookouts and Beach. We hit low tide which was perfect. it allowed us to walk to a secluded area of the rocky cliff beach and even peak into a penguin hole! The Kauri tree was impressive and we really enjoyed the walk through the forest. Missed the waterfall as the primary road was closed but everything else was on point!

Perfect tour to get out of the city - Harriet was a wonderful guide. She was prompt on pick-up and drop-off at the port. My daughter was hungry and it was no problem to pull into a place to get food. Harriet was so knowledgeable about the area and the History. The places we went to were just what we were looking for: views and landscape- not just the city stuff. We had a great time. Highly recommend!
