What You Will Do
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. Explore the summits and craters of Auckland's youngest volcanoes, Mt. Wellington, Mangere Mountain, One Tree Hill, and Mt Eden, 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, at the museum or zoo, or Mission Bay beach. Please note, volcanoes visited are inactive.

Absolutely amazing tour! I loved every minute! The guide (Mike) was very knowledgeable and provided lots of facts and history in an interactive way. The tour was a nice easy pace and filled with great conversations in the car trips between the volcanoes. Pick and up and drop offs were really easy. The volcanoes are stunning and the way the trip is planned out is perfect. I highly recommend! It was awesome and I would do it again for sure!
