Following an 8.00am pickup from your hotel or from the cruise port, meet your guide and travel along the beautiful Auckland waterfront to begin your 5 hour tour.

Enjoy short hikes to the summits of four of Auckland's inactive volcanoes — Mt. Eden, Mangere Mountain, Mt. Wellington, and One Tree Hill — and admire spectacular views of Auckland city and its harbours from vantage points around the craters.

Along the way, keep watch for bird life and learn about New Zealand's native plants. Learn about Auckland's rich volcanic geology and Maori history from your guide. 

Stop for a coffee and famous New Zealand meat pie (or other snack) from a local bakery.

At the end of the tour, your guide will drop you back to your hotel or cruise ship, or to another point of your choice in the city centre, such as Auckland Museum, the waterfront, Sky Tower, or a local gastro-pub for lunch.

All our guides are Auckland locals, happy to answer all your questions. Our tours are friendly, conversational, and informal. A moderate level of fitness is recommended for the short hikes on this tour; please let us know in advance if you have mobility concerns and we can adjust the tour and can drive to the summits if necessary.
