The tour continues to MJ Savage Memorial Park (Bastion Point), offering panoramic views of the Harbour Bridge, Waitematā Harbour, and Auckland’s skyline. Stops at Achilles Point provide stunning photo opportunities with Rangitoto Island in the background.


Visitors then explore One Tree Hill (Maungakiekie), a volcanic summit standing 182 meters high, followed by Mount Eden, one of Auckland’s most iconic volcanic cones with sweeping views of the city and Hauraki Gulf.

We toured with Paul from Auckland City Tours, and it was truly the best tour we've ever experienced—and we've been on many! Paul’s deep knowledge of Auckland’s history, culture, and surrounding areas was outstanding. Combined with his kindness, humour, and wonderful photography skills, the experience was well beyond five stars. Thank you, Paul, for making our first day in Auckland so special!

I had a very short stay in Auckland and only a few hours to spare. I wanted to see as much as I could and this tour was perfect. Josh took us around the city and outside, including Mount Eden, the marina, St Heliers Bay, Botanical Gardens and others. A great tour, excellent value for money and this guy knows his city! Delighted, I would never have had time to get to see and find out so much. Thoroughly recommended.

Auckland City tours provides a great experience with very good scenic spot stop overs for photo shoot and a stop and hike at Mt Eden. All the while Josh provides great insighta into the history of the places, and many tivias on Auckland and Newzealand. The choice of food stop was excellent - the pies, muffins and sandwiches were very tasty. Overall excellent choice of places, managed very well and a very friendly host. Few photos from the tour attached.
