Explore and admire Auckland's largest regional park, the Waitakere Ranges, on this 5 hour afternoon eco-tour. The perfect way to get out of the city and enjoy the nature on Auckland's door step.
You'll be picked up from your centrally located Auckland hotel before traveling 30-minutes west to the Waitakere Ranges.
From here travel further west to enjoy a walk in the rainforest before visiting the beautiful Piha Beach for a walk on the soft black sand.
Afternoon refreshments are provided along with full commentary from our driver guides.

I loved learning about Māori history through learning about the bush plants, but by far my favorite was the beach! It was awe-inspiring! Murray and Ayla were fantastic and knowledgeable guides.

What an insightful experience! I learned so much from the guide, Michelle, who did a great job answering the millions of questions I had about New Zealand. I learned so much on this tour as well as saw some amazing views especially of Piha Beach. Michelle was a fantastic guide and I really appreciated her efforts in making the experience special. Thank you!

Erin and Mary were a joy to be with. The rugged coastline and seeing surfers was amazing. It is a long ride from Auckland so be prepared to be in the vehicle for a while.

Ayla and Jason were great tour guides. We had a lovely hike/walk in the bush followed by a walk along a beautiful black sand beach. Really well done.

Meredith and Kevin were both incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable, as beautiful as the places we went to were, it is obvious the guides are what make this our a true gem. You can really tell they love the region and its local flora and history and how excited they are to share it with you. Even if the weather wasn’t the most agreeable, the tour still was an absolute success thanks to them!

The best part of the experience was our fabulous and well informed guides. It is very clear how much they love and respect the natural beauty of the rainforest and beaches, and New Zealand as a whole… they gave us a very memorable and lovely day.

It was a great experience for us. It was a raining /windy afternoon, but the tour guide and driver were warm and kind. It was a beautiful route. The tour guide was professional and knowledgable. We learned a lot about Auckland forrest/trees/animals, and New Zealand history. It was a great tour and we surely will recommend it to friends. Thank you!
