Zealandier ToursAuckland Day Tours Auckland – the gateway to New Zealand and also rated as the third most liveable city in the world on the global Mercer Quality of Life Survey. It is New Zealand’s largest city with over 1/3 of our population living here. One of the things that makes Auckland so special is our vibrant melting pot of cultures. This diversity reflected in our cuisine, festivals, art, music, and cultures. From the first Mãori waka (canoes) and colonial ships, Auckland has attracted people of many cultures from far and wide. By the 1890s, the city had a cosmopolitan flavour with dozens of languages heard in the bustling streets and new inhabitants from Europe, China and India. This theme continued throughout the 20th century, particularly in the 1950s when the population was boosted by the post-World War II ‘baby boom’ and many European immigrants from Hungary, Holland and Yugoslavia, later arrived bringing Auckland even more diversity.

Today we want to take you on tour of this vibrant region and expose you to some of our fantastic scenery and cultures whilst we follow

the steps on some of our early pioneers.

Auckland’s Ultimate Wine Tour (6.5hrs) New Zealand wines have become world acclaimed so it only fitting for you to sample some of Auckland’s best. Auckland is a large and diverse wine region, boasting sub-tropical climate with around 100 vineyards and wineries and home to some of New Zealand’s oldest established vineyards, planted back in 1819. We’ll showcase three in particular today followed by a late lunch at one of the best in the region.

You will start your day when we collect you from your ship then travel along the harbour edge to Mission Bay, a historical area of inner city Auckland. From here we will visit Parnell, an upmarket suburb full of charm and character. Then it’s out west we go to start the sampling for the day. First stop is Matua Valley Wines with New Zealand’s first Sauvignon Blanc. Matua in Maori means “Head of the family” or leader so thought it only fitting to begin here with three whites, then 3 reds to sample. Maybe add a few NZ cheeses to complement each one. This takes about an hour.

Next stop is Kumeu River for its outstanding Chardonnay’s, followed closely by Soljans Estate for a wine tour before tasting begins. This winery has won many accolades over the years but I have to say their Legacy Méthode Traditionnelle 2009 is outstanding. Lunch is to follow in their award winning café/ restaurant. Wine Access magazine has recommended them as one of the top 20 Winery Restaurants in the World. Winner of 2014 Beef & Lamb Excellence Award and cater well to people with food allergies and or intolerances.

If time permits and you have the desire we can call into Hallertau, a local brewer of Boutique beers for a round of sampling before we travel back into the city. We recommend you take time at the end of the journey to experience Auckland’s famous landmark and tallest building in the Southern Hemisphere – the Sky Tower, however this is optional. The Sky Tower is only two blocks from your cruise ship .
