What travellers are saying
- sarahwJ2313LWBristol, United Kingdom2 contributionsAnother Fantastic day trip with Auckland Scenic Tours! A great way of exploring more of NZ and meeting new people. Our tour guide David did a brilliant job of making the day a very special one with his friendly approach, great knowledge of NZ history and culture and ensuring we experienced the very best of NZ beautiful landscapes. Highly recommend Auckland Scenic Tours!Written 11 April 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Lorna WWhangarei, New Zealand2 contributionsMy husband and I went on the cruise as a gift from our 3 children for our 50th Wedding Anniversary There were only 9 other passengers, apart from the 3 crew. Two other couples were also celebrating their annversaries. So a rather special cruise. We enjoyed the stop at Roberton Island and the walk to the top of the hill was well worth it for the beautiful view over the island. The lunch on board was really good, as were the delicious scones with jam and cream. The crew were great. We would highly recommend this cruise.Written 21 April 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Matt4 contributionsWell run and managed trip. Very safe. Great skipper Lyn, nice bloke, well spoken and competent. Perfect length of time for the trip. Not rushed at all.Written 20 February 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Julie Smith1 contributionA fabulous day out with an equally fabulous knowledgeable host. Exceeded all expectations for views, wildlife and comfort. We packed so much into our day! Walk, snorkel in private lagoon, Dolphins and Orca! We were super lucky. Can't rate this day out enough. Thanks Carino Team!!Written 19 February 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- polyphemus6 contributionsIn only his 6th week as a tour guide, Paul proved himself an exceptional pro who could juggle a very late start into an eventful day that still covered all the highlights. We visited Maori Brandon at the Kawiti glow worm caves where we heard the legends of the caves. After a meat pie and ginger beer lunch in Kerikeri, we walked among the soaring Kauri trees in the Puketi rain forest. A quick stop at the Makana chocolate store was coupled with a visit to a woodcarver's shop.
Back on the road, we visited the old stone store (first in NZ) and the Haruru Falls. There we saw the NZ Christmas tree that bears bright red flowers during the holidays. Throughout the day, Paul kept us entertained with tales of the Kiwi culture and beautiful countryside. Our journey ended at the site of the Waitangi Treaty grounds where Britain and Maori signed an agreement in 1840.Written 15 March 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - swamiesabroadPaihia, New Zealand4 contributionsOur kids had an absolut blast on this tour. So much fun.
They do way more spins and speed compared to other locations in New Zealand. Highly highly recommend.Written 4 May 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Renee MWhangarei, New Zealand3 contributionsIt was a very peaceful experience once in a lifetime. Very happy I did it. Went solo. Sorry can't upload a photo I don't have anything with me.Written 11 February 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Leigh ZAuckland, New Zealand1 contributionMate, if you want value for money look no further.
I'm terrible with names, so I've forgotten the name of our skipper. Don't mistake my lack of short term memory for him not being memorable. The bro was amazing, caring, fun, and full of knowledge.
He went out of his way to help my son build a hutt on the beach. Perfect pronunciation of Maori words really shows he is in touch with paihia and the culture. Everyone felt safe, comfortable and by the end of the trip everyone left with smiles.
Found out he went to a rival school to myself, we never had any animosity ;)Written 31 December 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - LandC46Auckland, New Zealand261 contributionsEverything was great! We considered ourselves fortunate that there were only 13 passengers (4 crew) on our two hour Sundowner sail since that perhaps made it more intimate. The best fun was in climbing up the rigging and helping with the sails, encouraged by enthusiastic crew. So nice to be out on the water on such a splendid, beautiful and historic vessel.Written 1 March 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- jimmicathakur9 contributionsHad an excellent time with Dan and Ace on the Cruise - Kayak tour this afternoon. They're both super lovely and helpful, clearly know a lot about the Bay of Islands and have a ton of entertaining stories to share. Ruby is great too - she handled my numerous queries and questions with utmost ease. Such a great time at such an affordable price, would definitely recommend everyone to support this lovely local family business.Written 29 December 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Shelley2 contributionsStunning scenery of the Bay of Islands from the air with lots of info on the area provided by the pilot. Landing was amazing and got to have a quick walk around and photo op on the island before returning to the mainland. Can highly recommendWritten 7 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- evman00Christchurch, New Zealand196 contributionsReally enjoyed the tour and Learnt so much. Recommend this tour for all NZ citizens and tourists.
The show in the Marae was excellent and the man who took the tour was great.Written 15 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Elianna M1 contributionJust when you think you have done it all you really havent! Trike tours was one of the best experiences we have ever done. Denise made booking a breeze, Daz managed to give a geography class we both wanted to pay attention too! Would definitely book again :)Written 27 February 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
