What to expect

In the afternoon, see the largest volcanic explosion crater in Auckland, walk along an old lava-strewn coastline, enjoy an ice cream or coffee at Takapuna Beach, and explore an old military fort in an extinct volcano at Devonport. Admire panoramic views of Auckland from many angles, and learn about native plant and wildlife. Option to take the ferry back to the central city at the end of the tour to get out on Auckland's famous harbour (included), or be dropped off by your guide.
