Auckland City Small-Group Morning Discovery Tour

Alex was fantastic. Very informative, a lot covered in a short-period of time. Great and fast way to see the city. Absolutely recommend.

Good tour and excellent narration. The guide was very accommodating. Perfect timing of the hotel pickup.

This excursion is fine for older people that do not want to walk much, but it wasn't really what we were expecting. We only had 3 stops Mt Victoria, a beach, and the Winter Garden. Mt Victoria was super rushed, beach was more of a bathroom and coffee stop, and Winter Gardens I think we could've done without...The entire tour was driving around, too much info to take in, no time to actually take any pictures or enjoy what the guide was talking about. The most time we had at a stop was at the Winter Garden, and honestly you can see gardens elsewhere in the world, it not something that amazing or noteworthy about the city, unless its a longer tour and you want to fit more things in it to fill up time. I'm guessing there are way more important things to visit in Auckland though. We did an excursion in Sydney which was a small group morning walking tour and that was great. We knew there was driving involved in this small group Auckland tour, but we didn't realize the extent of it. I would recommend making more stops, giving people more time to walk around and enjoy/soak in all the info that the tour guide is giving us. Maybe choose different stops, Mt Victoria was great, beach was fine, but I would change the Winter Garden and definitely add other stops...Make the tour longer, or remove some parts. You could start it earlier, finish it later, there are ways to make this a better and more enjoyable tour. Please note our guide was nice and very informative, he is just doing the itinerary that was given to him, so it is not his fault we didn't like this tour.

Our guide Sean gave a wonderful tour of the city. Having been born In Auckland his personal stories of the places we visited addled to the experience
