    We had an incredible experience with our tour guide Sean in Auckland! He took us to some of the city’s most meaningful historic sites, giving us a deep dive into the history and significance of each location. The guide’s knowledge and passion truly brought the stories to life. On top of that, he knew all the perfect spots for capturing memorable photos, so we left with both fantastic memories and stunning pictures. Sean was extremely personable and accommodating - an absolute joy! If you're looking for a tour that blends education with picturesque moments, this is the one to book!

    Had a brilliant half day tour of some of the sights around the periphery of Auckland City including the Winter Garden, Mount Eden and North Point. Sean, our guide, was hugely informative and made the whole experience very relaxing and fun. It was lovely to see the city from the viewpoint on Mount Eden and to learn some of the history and geography of the area. Sean was also very flexible adapting the tour to enable us to catch a ferry back to the city and see the lights at night. He then picked us back up on the other side to drive us back to our hotels. All in all a fabulous experience.

    I was looking to appreciate Auckland city from another perspective, and this tour exceeded that expectation! Mt. Eden was breathtaking, the gardens were so pretty, and the trip overall was very enjoyable - even with a little rain! Our guide, Sean, was very informative. He shared historical facts about the sites we visited, as well as fun little facts as we drove through the city. He went above and beyond and recommended we take the ferry back to see the night time city lights. It was the perfect ending to our tour. Sean met us on the other side and recommended some great dining options before dropping us back off at our hotels. Very glad I booked this one, I learned a lot!

    Sean was a great guide - very friendly, communicative, accommodating and knowledgeable. He adjusted out tour because of the rain and unexpected unavailability of the cathedral, and made the tour even better than expected.
