Phenomenal views!!! - We enjoyed our tour very much. Dean was very knowledgeable and he wanted to make sure we had the best experience. Coming from Seattle it was nice to have a driver we could all understand.
The climb to Mt. Eden was challenging for us oldies 66-70, but we made it and the view was phenomenal! We’d do it again especially if Dean was our guide!

Fantastic Tour of Auckland - Graeme was a fantastic guide with a wonderful, gracious nature. He told wonderful stories and was a wealth of information. Prior to our trip, Graeme and I communicated several times and he was so thorough and responsive to my questions and our needs. He was willing to make adjustments to the tour so that we could be dropped off at Mt. Eden for dinner and a sunset climb. Our family all wanted to spend more time with him and we were grateful for his time and energy.

Fantastic tour - Absolutely best way to explore Auckland! Graeme is a great owner/guide with a fantastic knowledge of his subject. We had so much fun in the tuktuk enjoying all his narrative about the sights and the funny ride in the electric tuktuk.
We definitely want to recommend him and his company for all the tours he has.
We were happily surprised that the tour was way longer than what we had paid for. A BIG kudos to Graeme and thank you so much!

Great way to see the city in a short amount of time! - We spent our long weekend in Auckland, and decided to go on the 1-hour City Sprint Tuk-Tuk Tour as we had limited time to see and do things. Would definitely recommend! Our guide was very accommodating and very informative, although the weather wasn’t great (raining) and visibility a bit low on certain landmarks it was still a great tour. Also, rather than taking us directly back to our hotel at the end of the tour, our guide happily dropped us off at the Auckland Art Gallery with no bother, and we had a wonderful time at the gallery. Another must-do when in Auckland. All in all a great last day in the city!

The Perfect way to explore Auckland - I booked my tour through Cunards QE cruise whilst we docked in Auckland for New Year 2022/23. Best decision I could have made! Graeme was excellent, entertaining, fun and so informative. My fellow traveller and I had a wonderful time.
A perfect way to explore the city with a fantastic guide. A unique experience and I would highly recommend everyone visiting the beautiful city of Auckland make sure they take a tour with Kiwituktuk.
Best wishes to you Graeme, hope to see you again.

Great tuk tuk experience - Graeme was very friendly and showed us amazing parts of Auckland in about an hour. He made our time in Auckland much better! And it’s quiet because it’s electric!

Extremely disappointing experience - Would not recommend. Both booking time and location changed 3 times. When we got to Auckland we first went to location to familiarise ourselves with the area so it would be easy to get back there. Got there later only to find out the location had changed again and as I was in a moon boot could not walk that far. Frustrated after 3rd location change told tour operator I wanted to cancel and get a refund, he told me there would be no refund. The whole experience from start to finish was a mess. I hope he's happy to keep my money for a service he did not provide.
