An Amazing, Well-Organised and Memorable New Zealand Day Tour with Auckland Scenic Day Tour
Amazing Full-Day Auckland Scenic Tour – Highly Recommended
I had an amazing experience with Auckland Scenic Day Tour from beginning to end. The day started perfectly; the scheduled pick-up time was 6:00am, and I was picked up at exactly 6:00am. That punctuality immediately gave me confidence that the tour was going to be well organised.
Considering the quality of the package and the excellent delivery of the full-day tour, I felt the price and admission fees were absolutely worth it.
Our tour guide, Danny, was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable about New Zealand’s history and culture and was engaging, friendly and interactive throughout the entire day. At the same time, he was a very safe and alert driver, which made the long day of travelling comfortable and relaxing.
The major highlights were Hobbiton and the Waitomo Glowworm Caves, both of which were wonderful experiences. However, what made the tour even more enjoyable was that it was not limited to just the major attractions. We also had a morning coffee stop, lunch stop, which is part of the tour package, and visited the HIVE Honey Shop, which were lovely additions to the itinerary.
Throughout the journey, Danny continued sharing interesting information and stories about the places we passed. He pointed out traditional and historical sites, monuments, rivers, businesses, racing tracks and other landmarks, while also sharing stories about famous New Zealanders and the history of different areas. This made the travelling between destinations just as interesting and educational as the main attractions themselves.
The tour vehicle was excellent; very clean, cosy, comfortable, smooth to travel in and very well presented. Our group was also the perfect size, with only 10 people, so we never felt cramped. Danny did a great job managing the group and making sure everyone was comfortable and included throughout the day.
I would definitely recommend Auckland Scenic Day Tour to anyone visiting Auckland who wants more than just a basic sightseeing trip. It provides a deeper and more meaningful introduction to New Zealand, with great value for money, excellent organisation and plenty of interesting information along the way.
It is also a very family-friendly tour and an experience I would happily recommend to others.
Thank you, Auckland Scenic Day Tour and Danny, for making the day so enjoyable, informative and memorable.

Great Auckland Experience!
Auckland Scenic Tours helped me with our New Zealand trip. David Smith is a gem. I sent the company an email for some help for tours for 12 people (my family & friends). David called me instead to get an idea of what we wanted to do. Some other tour companies didn't even want to help. I was told to go to a travel agent instead. David helped set up 3 tours for our family. Sent me links so each family can pay for their own tours. He also gave us group discounts for our group. Loved our tour guides. Mike for our wine tour. We thoroughly enjoyed our steak lunch at Kemeu River winery. Liam for our Rotorua tour was so friendly. He recommended restaurants. Taught us a few NZ slang and patiently explained Rugby to us. Nelson for our Hobbiton and Glow worm tour was so attentive. He always checked on us to make sure we were doing ok. David also referred me to another company for airport pick up. I highly recommend this company. David Smith will definitely take care of you. Thank you again! See you again soon New Zealand!

Very extensive tour of Auckland
This is a very extensive tour of Auckland. Went to many elevated areas to get panoramic views of the city. Mt Eden was a challenging hike and offered some amazing views of the city from every direction. The winery was nice.

Great day tour of Auckland
Danny drove around Auckland bay, stopping along the way for over views of the city, a visit to the glass arboretum, a walk around the War museum, a moderately easy short walk up Mt Eden crater, a lovely wine tasting at Soljan’s vineyard and lunch at River Head restaurant. All and more, as described in his Viator description. Wonderful day!
