1.Vineyards Honey and Black Sand Beaches from Auckland

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 93 reviews · from $183Our pick

Small-group Auckland wine tour with tastings and lunch at three wineries, plus Muriwai black-sand beach and a honey stop.

“The three wineries were great. Had a super great lunch at one of the wineries. Unfortunately it was a real rainy day so not such a great experience with the stop at the beach but the guide made his best effort to at least give us a glimpse. The reference in the header to Honey is a little misleading. Tasted and actually purchased some excellent honey but with the title in the tour expected to see actual honeycombs and how it was gathered. Nothing close to that.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 52 reviews · from $277

A 4-hour private Auckland city and countryside tour with hotel pickup, big lookout views, beach stops, and guided walks for $277.40 per person.

“First, let me start by saying our driver was a very nice man. However, he did not seem to be as knowledgeable about Auckland’s specific areas of interest. The tour company should have trained him with more of the facts in my opinion. He was very pleasant and a safe driver, however. As far as Viatour is concerned, I’m very disappointed in your service in that I booked a pickup schedule time to leave the hotel at 12:30. I got a notice from viatour when we arrive to the hotel in the early morning that the tour was scheduled for 930. Of course it was too early for viatour to…”
