  • N/A (Pass By)

    The richest street not only in Auckland but New Zealand that additionally offers spectacular views over Okahu Bay and Auckland Harbour

  • Mission Bay (Pass By)

    Marvel at the old stone cottage constructed by Bishop Selwyn in 1848 with volcanic rock as you journey through one of the quaintest coastal suburbs in Auckland as you journey to Kohimarama

  • Achilles Point

    One of the most historic places in Auckland; but also affords the most spectacular views of the Auckland Harbour and the Hauraki Gulf

    15 minutes

  • Orakei Basin - not Orakei Korako! (Pass By)

    One of 3 crater lakes in Auckland as we explain its history and significance

  • Remuera

    Marvel at the homes in the richest suburb of not only Auckland but New Zealand as we explain the types of timber used in their construction and how to tell their age
