Great Time with Mike

5.00Mike was a great guide. We covered a ton of ground in a relatively short period of time and I enjoyed the conversation the entire time. Lots of great information about Auckland (particularly the volcanos which are an area of specialty for this team). Would absolutely recommend this to others.
Excellent trip with...

5.00Harriet made the most of the rainy weather, and was a good sport getting soaking wet with the traveler among us (namely me!) who really wanted to walk on the black sand in the rain blowing horizontally. She also knew the history of the region and shared it so pleasantly…
Great experience

5.00This is one of the best tours we have ever taken (and we’ve taken a lot). Our guide, Harriet, arrived at the promised time and was very knowledgeable about all the areas and sights we experienced. We never felt rushed at any time and she made sure we were comfortable throughout. We were so impressed with this tour that we booked another tour with her company for the following day. She is very personable and is a credit to her company, Voltours, and we highly recommend this company for any Auckland tour.
Thank you, Harriet, for a...

Solo trip to Auckland

5.00I booked this tour as a solo traveler wanting to maximize my limited in Auckland to see as much as possible. The did not fail to deliver. This tour exceeded my expectations. It had hiking, waterfalls volcanoes, beaches, local cuisine, and wine. Jerome, the tour guide and driver was friendly professional and very knowledgeable about his hometown and its surrounding areas. Jerome also provided recommendations for other place of interest which was another plus. My favorite portion of the tour was the 360 degree view of Auckland from Mt. Eden. Make sure you bring beach shoes as the sand is very hot. I definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Auckland for a short time. 5/5 experience

5.00The Mt. Etna and Pahi beach were the highlights though the whole experience was great. Our guide was Jerome. He was fantastic. It’s a smaller group which we like because you’re not with 30/40 other people
Great Active Tour Outside City

5.00Guide Harriet did a fantastic job showing us points of interest outside center city Auckland. The ascent to top of Mt Eden resulted in wonderful views of the city. The Piha beach stop had magnificent views and a chance to walk a beautiful beach. Harriet also made some other great scenic stops which made for an unforgettable experience! Well done!
A great way to see beautiful Auckland!
