Sheep sheering and more! - I was looking forward to seeing how they sheer sheep and that we did! We even learned how they tagged the sheep to identify their gender and age then got to help separate the sheep into different pens by their tags as they came running in.
Allan was very knowledgeable about the history of Auckland and took us to see Kauri trees in a micro rainforest and a manuka honey farm on the way to the sheep farm! It was a very busy day!!

Excellent change of pace 6-hour excursion from the city. - We really enjoyed the visit to Sheep World, the animals, and the sheep dog and sheep shearing demonstrations. The Springboard story should be retold and heard. We also liked the scenery on the drive there and back. However, the stop at the honey center was more like a sales stop, but no pushy salesman at all and it was only 10 minutes. We just had some hokey pokey ice screen and moved on, and spent more time stopping at various view points on the way back instead. The guide, Marama, was wonderful, kind, and very accommodating.

Fantastic experience! - We had a great time. We had the excursion all to ourselves except for the guide snd and a trainee ( sorry I can’t remember names). They took us all over the place to unique adventures, as well as the fun Sheep World. Very educational there.

Amazing day and Sheepworld plus more! - Our driver (ugh, I forgot her name!) was absolutely wonderful. We really loved Sheepworld and getting to see, pet and feed all the adorable animals. Watching the sheep shearing was quite the show, the handler had that thing fully shaved in under 2 mins. Amazing! Then, we went to a lovely nature preserve and had a little picnic in the forest and we got to walk along a lovely nature path which was a nice bonus because I though we were just doing a sheep farm. And then, since we had a bit of time, our driver drove us along the beautiful beaches outside of Auckland and even stopped so we could get a proper Tip Top ice cream come right on the beach. And best of all, my husband had tweaked his hip somehow and so she stopped at the drug store so I could get him a cane to help out. She really went about and beyond and made it a special day! Thank you so much!

Sheep Shearing Fun - What a ball of fur and fun. We took the small group tour and it ended up being the four of us which is always great. Our guide was a hoot and gave us tons of history and stopped at different places because we had the time. That happens when everyone is back to the van on time. We happened to be there with a ton of preschoolers and it was so fun to see their reaction. Loved watching the dogs with the sheep and the shearing>.DId a great nature walk also and visited the Winter Gardens.

Good experience - It was a good experience and it was fun watching the dogs and sheep interact. It was not the most exciting tour I've ever taken, but my wife wanted to, so we did.

Non-existent. - I did not go on a tour of Sheep World. My tour was cancelled because I was the only person in all of Auckland that day who wanted to see how sheep are sheared.
