The half-day city highlights tour was exceptional from beginning to end. Driver Sean picked us up on time, was very kind and attentive, a safe driver, gave a great historical overview, and offered recommendations for other things to do. A great value for the money. Would highly recommend this tour.

To get up at mt eden was amazing. Just quite a bit of a climb but its worth it when you reach the top, fascinating views.
Thanks to Sean, our tour guide, he was so accomodating and very informative and he can take you a good photos so guys if he ask you if you want photos taken, say definitely yes😉👍
A must do tour for a first time traveller to Auckland.

Sean, our guide, clearly loves Auckland and enjoys sharing it with visitors. He was friendly, very knowledgeable and made us feel like we were his special guests. It was a pleasure to have him as our guide. We also enjoyed the small group, only 4 of us.

We really enjoyed our day with Sam as he took us to key locations for great views of the skyline and highlights. His knowledge about the area was good and he was able to provide lots of insights as we drove around town. He did have a slight accent so we just repeated and got clarity when needed.

Sean was informative and fun! We had a great tour and he made some kind minor adjustments to assist my parents. Dad has some mobility issue and Sean made sure that his tour was as good as everyone else’s tour. We only wish that we had more time in Auckland so that we could hire Sean to show us more of the city and to see the West side of the island. I highly recommend.
