We stop to view the Auckland Harbour Bridge & the Watchman Island from Curran Street along the waterfront where there is plenty of photo opportunities.
15 minutes
Westhaven Marina
Westhaven Marina in Auckland, New Zealand, is the largest yacht marina in the Southern Hemisphere.[citation needed] The marina has nearly two thousand berths and swing moorings, and tends to be continually booked. Auckland, known as 'City of Sails', is generally known for its maritime passions.
15 minutes
Tamaki Drive (Pass By)
Coastal Drive through Kohimarama, Mission Bay and Tamaki Drive before proceeding to Auckland’s west coast. Reaching Mission Bay at lunch time allows to explore a fantastic selection of cafes and restaurants and to spend time at the east coast beaches or jump on a scooter to ride through Auckland’s Waterfront.
Bastion Point
Bastion Point offers magnificent views out over the Hauraki Gulf and Waitematā Harbour, as well as back to central Auckland. It’s one of the best places in Auckland to take photos of the skyline and harbour. As the name suggests, its position overlooking the harbour makes it an ideal defence point for the city. The Māori name for this area is Takaparawhā. This scenic area includes the Savage Memorial, which commemorates Michael Joseph Savage, one of New Zealand’s most beloved prime ministers.
30 minutes
Achilles Point
Achilles Point was originally named Te Pane o Horoiwi (the head of Horoiwi) due to the Maori history of the site. It was renamed by the council in 1940 in honour of the New Zealand crewed ship HMS Achilles. The HMS Achilles defeated the German cruiser Graf Spee in the 1939 Battle of the River Plate, the first major naval battle of World War II. Achilles Point has great views of the Waitemata Harbour, and of course the Gulf Islands. Not so much a venue for actvities, but the views say it all..
30 minutes
Auckland Domain (Pass By)
Besides the beautiful surroundings, entering Auckland Domain will surprise you at how big it is, and how many beautiful spots there are to just sit down and relax! Also, there is a duck pond which has a fountain in it, and that makes for happy ducks! The excellent Auckland Museum is also found within Auckland Domain. Sitting on the green grass surrounded by the pink flowers, you could only hear the birds and feel the gentle wind blow your face.
Devonport
Travel across the Auckland Harbour Bridge and take in 360-degree views of the city on your way to the North Shore of Auckland.

So Many Sights in One Day
Published on Mar, 2024
What a wonderful tour for seeing a huge amount in a short time. In 8 hours, we were able to visit multiple scenic vistas, had two different wine tastings, enjoyed a fabulous lunch, and walked on a blacl sand beach, all while seeing the full breadth of Auckland. Karthik was a knowledgeable and friendly guide who did his utmost to make sure we had a great time. The snack and drink bags provided at the beginning of the tour were the cherry on top of this experience. Highly recommended.
Well worth it.
Published on Feb, 2024
There were 6 of us in a van which was great! Our tour guide was fabulous. Non stop information for 8 hours. Van was new and comfortable. We even got a goody bag with drinks and food. Saw everything and learned so much. from beaches to wineries to upscale suburbs and history.
Driving around Auckland
Published on Feb, 2024
Very informative and relaxed trip all around Auckland with Karthik our tour guide. We visited many many points of interest and two wineries for amazing food and wine samples. Karthik was fun, easygoing, and very knowledgeable about all the attractions. A great way to learn about Auckland without the hassle of driving.
