1.3-Day Bay of Islands Tour from Auckland

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 41 reviews · from $785Our pick

Explore Cape Reinga, Ninety Mile Beach, Waitangi, Russell, and the Hole in the Rock on a well-planned 3-day tour from Auckland.

“In theory, the tours were great- but.. After pick up from our hotel, we were instructed to walk up three blocks with our luggage to meet our connecting bus as it's faster. We assumed the pick up time would be reliant upon us getting transported the whole way despite saving time for the driver. Our driver had no idea who was looking after our itinerary after we arrived. Finally his company called another company and found that they were responsible for the next two days. Eventually our luggage was delivered to our hotel but they delivered the wrong bags.”

2.Hobbiton, Rotorua, Waiotapu and Waitomo 3-Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 22 reviews · 3 days · from $1,135

See Hobbiton, Rotorua, Waiotapu, Taupo and Waitomo on a comfortable 3-day small-group tour from Auckland with meals and hotels included.

“I had a fantastic time! I particularly loved Rotorua, and was really glad to be able to see it, particularly the Mitai evening and Waiotapu. I don't drive so this allowed me to see things I wouldn't have been able to otherwise. Everything was organised so efficiently, especially considering people in the group were doing different things. I never had to worry about anything! The drivers and guides were all so friendly and knowledgeable. It *is* a lot of money to spend for just 3 days, but considering how much was included, I don't regret it!”

Explore Waitangi, Cape Reinga, Ninety Mile Beach and the Bay of Islands on a 3-day Northland tour from Auckland with accommodation.

“This was a great tour that included all of the things that I wanted to experience in the Northland. All of the details were taken care- pick ups and drop offs were seamless and I all I had to do was show up. The drivers/tour guides had great personalities (Rachel, was especially informative and entertaining) and they all took great care of us. I was traveling on my own through NZ, and I didn't want to bother with a car, so this tour was absolutely perfect for me! Also the tour coordinator sent me a very detailed itinerary with all the contact info that I could possibly need, which was…”
