Auckland Shore Excursion: Small-Group Auckland City Tour
Auckland, New Zealand
See the sights when your ship is in port in Auckland and learn more about this beautiful ‘City of Sails’. You’ll tour the city center and its many bays on this Auckland shore excursion, cross the Harbour Bridge, take a stroll on the beach, and see the city spread out before you from the top of Mt Victoria. Enjoy personal attention from your guide on this small-group tour, limited to 18 people.
Explore the history and sights when you’re in port in Auckland, and experience daily life in this laid-back harbor city.
Traveling by air-conditioned mini-coach, led by a local guide, this small-group Auckland tour begins with a trip along Queen Street in the central business district. Passing Auckland University and the Domain inner-city park, the tour continues through the attractive suburb of Ponsonby, with its grand Victorian buildings.
Cross the Harbour Bridge to Auckland’s North Shore, then stretch your legs on Narrow Neck Beach in the town of Devonport, with fabulous views of Rangitoto Island’s extinct volcanic cone. There’s time for a coffee (own expense) in either Devonport or Takapuna before the tour continues to the summit of Mt Victoria, for panoramic views over Auckland.
Returning across the Harbour Bridge, admire one of the Southern Hemisphere’s largest marinas at Westhaven. You’ll also see local fresh seafood for sale on a visit to the Auckland Fish Market, before ending the tour at Viaduct Harbour, part of Auckland’s lively waterfront precinct.

Our Auckland small group tour was amazing. This tour gave you a fabulous overview of the city while in port. Our tour guide really made the trip he was extremely knowledgeable and made sure to answer all questions. We made alot of stops for pictures and time to get out of the van and stretch your legs. We would highly recommend this tour.

For the money I paid I expected a little bit more than a bus ride, but the stop at Mt Victoria summit was very good. The tour was 74.95 for 3 hours that is too much for so little.

Review by: Brij K, February 2014
The driver/guide for the Auckland City Tour was the best we had out of the eight days of Land Excursions we took while cruising around New Zealand. The driver/guide was very knowledgeable, courteous, and efficient. I wish the cuise lines hired Viator and your guides for all of their Land Excursions!!
Review by: Russell D, January 2014
Our tour guide was a lady. We found her very informative and friendly. She didn't rush us and we were able to see the sights at a unrushed pace. Also had ample toilet stops.

With only 1 day in Auckland this tour gave us a fantastic overview of the city, seeing highlights such as Devonport and Mt Victoria lookout stress-free. Our guide David, shared his local knowledge well. Pick up and drop off at our cruise ship made it vey convenient. We still had time to explore city around ship.
