Worth the trip! - What a beautiful place! As others have said, this is a long day from Auckland but so worth it. The cruise is beautiful, and stopping off to explore the islands with a little hiking was wonderful. Martin was kind, thoughtful, and informative as a guide and worked hard to make sure everyone in my small group (just 5 people) had a great day.

Great guide and tour - Warren was such a wonderful guide. Made the tour super fun and special. Itinerary was great. A beautiful day.

The full day excursion is worth it for the fabulous experience & glorious scenary - A long day but worth the effort for the fabulous scenery, the boat trip, island visit and exceptional driver hosting knowledge of Warren. We were delayed with traffic but Warren remained calm and got us to the boat and back. A little bit of paradise

A Must To Do in Auckland - Fantastic and great value tour. Warren was our guide and we gave us a very warm welcome, he was so informative and very humerus too. The journey from Auckland to the Bay of Islands passed quickly and we could appreciate the vast landscape which is beautiful and lush. Warren spoke movingly about the heritage of his country and this was excellent Once on the boat we sailed for about an hour and the sailed through the Hole in the Rock which was superb. Had relaxation time on a beach with welcoming cool drinks. Heading back to the city we saw a beautiful sunset. Thank you for a very well organised tour

Amazing Experience with Auckland and Beyond Tours! - Our trip to the Bay of Islands was absolutely fantastic! Adil, our tour guide, made the day unforgettable. He was incredibly informative, attentive, sharing New Zealand’s history and other insights. Also, while ensuring everything ran smoothly. The Bay of Islands itself was stunning. Adil’s professionalism and friendly demeanor truly elevated the experience. Highly recommend this tour and guide to anyone visiting New Zealand!

Fantastic day, beautiful scenery - We had a fantastic day with our guide, John. He was extremely personable, very knowledgeable, and made every attempt to do what he could to keep us on track for the day. I was very thankful he was driving as I could NOT have done all the up, up, and up with winding turns every few feet. It’s a long day but totally worth every minute as the views are gorgeous and there is so much history to the region. All in all would highly recommend this tour and this company!

Beautiful day on Bay of Islands - Beautiful day on the Bay of Islands. Lucked out with perfect weather. Cruised through the Hole in the Rock. Great way to spend a day.

Bay of Isles - Our driver, Geoff, and new guide, David, were prompt, professional, and informative. Geoff was a safe driver. Snacks and water were provided. They made the tour fun and memorable. We highly recommend the tour.

Bay Island tour - The tour of the bay islands was spectacular. The day started with a view of a beautiful waterfall. Our guide Adil was fantastic. He provided so much history about New Zealand. He was great with directions and setting expectations. He even added some additional stops that were very interesting. He was very thoughtful and had water for us throughout the day. He even surprised us with chips and cookies at the end of the tour. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate with us on the boat tour. However we did see dolphins up close and they followed us for a while.

Breathtaking Bay of Islands - I did the group tour to the Bay of Islands with Auckland & Beyond a couple weeks ago. Our guide, Adil, was absolutely amazing and really enhanced the experience; He was very professional and friendly, very knowledgeable about the tour and NZ in general, and shared this knowledge along the way. It was a long drive to the Bay of Islands, but the picturesque scenery and Adil's commentary made it the perfect trip! The van was clean and comfortable, and the others in the group were all great people. Auckland & Beyond did an amazing job organizing everything and their excellent communication by email before and after the trip made the experience effortless on my part. I highly recommend this tour, the Bay of Islands cruise is breathtaking! I am glad I chose this company for the tour, and would definitely take one of their other tours next time. I am eternally grateful to Adil and A&B for this perfect and memorable experience on my first trip to NZ. - Justin
