Brief but well-done city exploration
Published on Feb, 2025
Great intro to Auckland! Our guide, Murray, was very knowledgeable and shared lots of information in an easy to follow manner. The van held about 15 people so it was comfortable and very easy to get in and out. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and give it high marks!
We enjoyed touring with a small group.

Our tour with Wayne gave us a good overview of Auckland in a short amount of time— a great option for passengers arriving by crisis ship. The meeting place was easy to locate as we left the pier, and we enjoyed touring with a small group rather than the large groups on excursions booked through the cruise lines. Bush and Beaches gave us a great value with our half day tour.
