Description

Discover the magic of New Zealand during a guided tour of the north of the island. The schedule for the day is as follows:

After leaving your hotel you will travel by minibus following the island's northern coast. Here you can see wonderful scenery and many natural beaches. We will also travel through areas such as the Hibiscus Coast and the city of Whangerei with its large port.

There will be a stop to visit the Waitangi Treaty House, a historic location where the Treaty between the Maori and Europeans was signed in 1840.

At the end of the cruise we will return to Paihia before a leisurely journey back to your hotel in Auckland.
