Overview

Auckland is known as the City of Sails, but some think it should be called the City of Volcanoes! Gain insight into Auckland's unique volcanic geology and explore its rich Maori history on this half-day tour from Auckland. Beginning with a scenic drive along the waterfront, get exclusive vehicle access to the summits and craters of Auckland's youngest volcanoes (including Mt Eden and One Tree Hill) with a guide. Along the way, keep watch for native New Zealand wildlife and admire panoramic views over the city. At the end of the tour, we can drop you off anywhere in the city. Please note, volcanoes visited are inactive.
