Discover the Best Auckland Tours from Landmarks to North Island Getaways

Auckland tours offer something for every type of traveller—whether you're keen to explore city landmarks, soak in Māori culture, or get out into nature. Start with Auckland’s urban icons like the Sky Tower and Viaduct Harbour before diving into local history at the Auckland Museum. From there, venture out on one of many Auckland day tours to nearby hotspots like Waiheke Island, the Waitākere Ranges, or the volcanic slopes of Rangitoto Island.

For those looking to go further, Auckland is the ideal launchpad for top North Island destinations. Take a day trip to the Hobbiton Movie Set, discover the glowworm caves of Waitomo, or relax in Rotorua’s geothermal pools. The Coromandel Peninsula and Bay of Islands offer beach escapes and cultural experiences, while Auckland shore excursions and coach tours are perfect for cruise visitors and those short on time.

Rail, Road and Sea – Auckland Tours for Every Travel Style

Beyond traditional sightseeing, Auckland tours also include scenic rail journeys, self-drive adventures and small group short tours. Board the Northern Explorer train to Wellington for stunning views of coastlines, forests and mountains, or plan a self-drive holiday with flexible itineraries and curated stays. Multi-day Auckland tours let you experience New Zealand at a comfortable pace, connecting you to iconic sights and lesser-known gems across both islands.

For a more active itinerary, explore cycling trails, hike the black-sand beaches of the West Coast, or sail the sparkling waters of the Hauraki Gulf. Wine lovers can head to Waiheke or Matakana for tastings, while thrill-seekers can try ziplining, kayaking or scenic flights. Whether you’re after adventure, culture, or relaxation, Auckland tours deliver a diverse mix of unforgettable travel experiences.
