Experience the diverse landscapes of Auckland with our city and wilderness nature tour. Departing at 9am from central accommodations or cruise ship ports, we'll journey through the suburbs to the Arataki Visitor Centre, located in the Waitakere Ranges. These hills, remnants of ancient volcanoes, reach a height of -400m above sea-level and create a unique micro rainforest environment. Immerse yourself in this lush forest as you take in stunning views of Auckland's two harbours and the surrounding landscape. Don't miss the chance to see the migratory gannets at their colony (please note: no birds are present from May to August). Despite being just a few miles (-approx 40 minutes-) from downtown Auckland, you'll feel like you're in another world.
