Liz was a terrific guide and gave us lots of great tips about Auckland ! We had just landed from the US and she kept us interested and awake when we needed it. Thx Liz!! Sue Susan Carolyn and christi
Had the best time with Debbie on our walking tour of Auckland. She took us to historical parts of the city, giving us information at every stop. She pointed out new buildings and how they came about. She took us to several different food sites where we got to sample some coffee and chocolate. When the tour was over we made sure to go back and visit a museum She had pointed out to us and eat at a restaurant on a street She mentioned had great food. Overall, an awesome way to get introduced to a new city.
Great walk with Anna. She is very knowledgeable about the history of Auckland and was eager to share. Definitely happy we took the walking tour!
Liz was our tour guide for the day. She was awesome! Very knowledgeable of the city and its history. Highly recommend Liz! We loved it.
Having Liz give us her personalized tour saved us so much time and gave us an awesome appreciation of Auckland. Her easy style put us at ease immediately. She made it clear the 3 hours were ours, and only wanted to do what we wanted to do. Liz mixed in Auckland History I have a question and Maori culture with insights on great places to eat and shop. The planned stops were well timed, comfortable and tasty. Our time together went fast and we feel like we have a new friend. We recommend this tour highly.
Alex was our guide for a 3 hour private walking tour of Auckland. It was a great experience! She covered an incredible amount of historical and cultural info during the tour and shared a wide variety of insights and information. Highly recommended.
Anna was a great guide. She is very knowledgeable and you can tell she loves what she does. She shared a lot about the culture, even talked about the common foods. Being with Anna gave us a great introduction to our 4 weeks to come in New Zealand.

Thank you lovely local ladies, it was a pleasure to host you both and what an inspired gift idea from your son. We really enjoyed hosting you on a magical Saurday morning. Best wishes, L x
We landed in Auckland early morning, February 14. Took a quick nap and met our guide Liz in our hotel lobby.
