Experience Auckland's fascinating volcanic landscape, get a taste of Maori history and discover the wonderful West Coast, the home of Maui Dolphins, Seals (Kekenos) and native bird life. Every time anyone comes here, the scenery is always different! Leaving the crowds behind us, we will travel through the Kumeu wine region to the wild West Coast. Enjoy the wonderful nature on a walk through the mystic rainforest before reaching the 60 km long black sand beach. Be mesmerised by an amazing view over the Tasman Sea, and if you are lucky, you will see playful Maui Dolphins, sunbathing seals and about 3000 Gannets looking after their chicks (August-April). We head back to the "City of Sails", visit historical Bastion Point and get a taste of Maori history before we stop in a little seaside village where you will have the opportunity to have some lunch and enjoy one of the guide's favourite views onto Auckland's largest volcano, Rangitoto and Browns Island before visiting one of the guide's best-loved places, Maungakiekie.
