Enjoy a comprehensive full day tour of greater Auckland, including Auckland Zoo, Parnell Village, the Skytower and more.

Our tour of Auckland begins in the morning with a trip over the Harbour Bridge, enabling you to see first hand why Auckland is known as the City of Sails.

We continue on through the Auckland Domain, the city's oldest park, situated on a 62,000 year old volcano to Parnell Village for our morning tea stop. The historic buildings of Parnell have been transformed in to a trendy shopping area featuring many boutiques, antique, craft and specialty shops.

Following this brief stop our tour will then take you along the scenic waterfront route of Tamaki Drive to the Michael Joseph Savage Memorial Park, in Mission Bay.

A memorial to the first Labour Prime Minister of New Zealand and the founder of the welfare state. Michael Joseph Savage Memorial Park has panoramic views over Whenua Rangatira, Auckland city and Waitemata Harbour. This park is a popular wedding and tourist venue, with formal gardens and perfect venue for flying a fabulous array of colourful and creative kites.

In the afternoon we visit three of Auckland's leading attractions.

Visit the Auckland Zoo - New Zealand's largest collection of animals and is recognised as one of the most progressive zoos in the world. A winner of national and international environmental-related awards, it is home to 120 different species and over 750 animals.

To finish your Auckland day experience, travel up in the glass-fronted lifts and take in the breathtaking views of Auckland from the observation deck at the top of the SkyTower. At 328 metres, it is the tallest man-made structure in New Zealand and offers breathtaking views for up to 80 kilometres in every direction.

Harbour Bridge
Auckland Domain

Viaduct Harbour
