Tour Overview

Embark on a journey through Auckland's West Coast, where the untamed landscapes of New Zealand's North Island come to vibrant life. Starting at the iconic Piha Beach, you can walk along the unique black sand that contrasts dramatically with the crisp, blue waves, and gaze up at the imposing Lion Rock, a natural landmark steeped in Maori mythology.

As you venture deeper into the lush rainforests, prepare to be surrounded by the soothing sounds of nature, with cascading waterfalls providing a serene backdrop. These natural showers create a refreshing mist that enhances the forest's deep, earthy smells and vibrant greens.

Next, enrich your understanding of local culture with a visit to the Arataki Visitor Centre. Here, you'll gain insights into the Maori heritage through interactive exhibits, and be treated to expansive views across the Waitakere Ranges. This spot serves as a reminder of the deep connection between New Zealand's people and their environment.

Conclude your tour with a relaxing stop at one of the country's oldest wineries. Here, you can savor finely crafted wines that capture the essence of the region's rich soil and unique climate, paired perfectly with a selection of local produce.

This tour invites you to not just see, but truly experience the natural wonders and cultural richness of Auckland's West Coast.
