    15 minutes

  • Westhaven Marina

    Westhaven Marina in Auckland, New Zealand, is the largest yacht marina in the Southern Hemisphere.[citation needed] The marina has nearly two thousand berths and swing moorings, and tends to be continually booked. Auckland, known as 'City of Sails', is generally known for its maritime passions.

    15 minutes

  • Tamaki Drive (Pass By)

Reaching Mission Bay at lunch time allows to explore a fantastic selection of cafes and restaurants and to spend time at the east coast beaches or jump on a scooter to ride through Auckland’s Waterfront.

  • Bastion Point

    Bastion Point offers magnificent views out over the Hauraki Gulf and Waitematā Harbour, as well as back to central Auckland. It’s one of the best places in Auckland to take photos of the skyline and harbour. As the name suggests, its position overlooking the harbour makes it an ideal defence point for the city. The Māori name for this area is Takaparawhā. This scenic area includes the Savage Memorial, which commemorates Michael Joseph Savage, one of New Zealand’s most beloved prime ministers.

    30 minutes

  • N/A

    Achilles Point was originally named Te Pane o Horoiwi (the head of Horoiwi) due to the Maori history of the site. It was renamed by the council in 1940 in honour of the New Zealand crewed ship HMS Achilles. The HMS Achilles defeated the German cruiser Graf Spee in the 1939 Battle of the River Plate, the first major naval battle of World War II. Achilles Point has great views of the Waitemata Harbour, and of course the Gulf Islands. Not so much a venue for actvities, but the views say it all..

    30 minutes

  • Auckland Domain (Pass By)

    Besides the beautiful surroundings, entering Auckland Domain will surprise you at how big it is, and how many beautiful spots there are to just sit down and relax! Also, there is a duck pond which has a fountain in it, and that makes for happy ducks! The excellent Auckland Museum is also found within Auckland Domain. Sitting on the green grass surrounded by the pink flowers, you could only hear the birds and feel the gentle wind blow your face.

Great day learning about Aukland and the surrounding coastal area!

Published on Feb, 2025

Karthik was tremendously knowledgeable, not only about the city of Aukland, but about the entire country and its history. The van was very comfortable, and Karthik used a head set which allowed us to easily hear him even from the back seat. We covered most of the city and had plenty of opportunity to take photos from stunning viewpoints. The 2nd half of the tour included visits to two wineries and the black beach. The lunch that was provided as part of the tour was amazing! I highly recommend using Experience Kart for one of your New Zealand tours.
