Ideal for the first time visitor, this comprehensive scenic tour of Auckland will introduce you to all the must-see sights and attractions. Escorted by a local guide; from land and at sea and from such great heights, you'll come to appreciate why Auckland is known as the City of Sails.

See Auckland Domain - the city's oldest park, situated on a 62,000 year old volcano with fabulous views of the harbor and across to Rangitoto Island. Visit the shopping area of Parnell Village with its historic buildings that have been transformed into boutique, antique, craft and specialty shops.

Continue onto Kelly Tarlton's Antarctic Encounter and Underwater World and see King and Gentoo penguins on your snow cat ride through the Antarctic Encounter.

All these creatures are only centimeters away, on the other side of the unique acrylic underwater tunnel.
