BAY OF ISLANDS TOURS:
Travelling north from Auckland your journey into Northland will take you through rolling countryside, rural towns and past sandy beaches to Paihia, situated in the beautiful Bay of Islands.
Regarded as the birthplace of New Zealand, Northland is rich in both culture and early Maori and European history - from Kupe, believed to be the very first Maori voyager to arrive in New Zealand over 1,000 years ago, to the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi between Maori and the Crown.
The Bay of Islands is a stunning region consisting of 144 islands abundant in natural beauty and marine life. You can experience it to the full by swimming with dolphins or visiting the famous Cape Brett Hole in the Rock.
