Overview

German/English speaking

Magnificent views of the Coromandel Peninsula and the islands of the inner gulf

Leaving the City of Sails we explore Auckland like the locals do without having to fight the crowds, and discover under-the-radar beaches and walks where you can expect few or no people and a tranquil ambiance.

Reaching the Regional Park South of Auckland, we walk (1-2 hrs) on coastal farmland located on the pohutukawa-fringed Whakakaiwhara Peninsula which offers spectacular 360 degree views of the Hauraki Gulf. Try putting names to the islands you see Rangitoto, Waiheke, Motutapu, Pakihi, Rotoroa. . . Coromandel Peninsula.

From sleepy Maraetai the shoreline stretches for several kilometres of splendid unspoilt coastal scenery along the narrow Coast Road until it reaches Umupuia, where we find a Maori cemetary and marae - the meeting place of the Ngai Tai people.

This has to be taking the absolute piss. Views of the Coromandel? Is it BYO telescope or? Good if you to include admission fee tho - not that you can compare it to the admission rate on Auckland Council website of ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Joker. Don’t rip off tourists, NZ needs the tourism to help boost the economy. This gives an untrustworthy reputation. Take up knitting bruv.

We loved our private tour with Gesa. On our way from downtown Auckland to the beautiful west coast black sand beach she helped us understand the lay of the land and local culture. The walk through the forest was beautiful and she pointed out the differences between the different vegetation at different elevations as we made our way to see the Gannet birds and beach. If we had another day we would have booked another tour! Highly recommend this company. She will alter the trip based on what you’d like to see.
