Overview

This tour is your chance to get away from the city & experience this paradise we call home. If you're a nature nut, animal lover or you just love to get out for a walk among beautiful scenery this is the trail for you! It's a small group tour with no more than 6 people. Perfect if you are not into the "big tour bus" vibe. You'll see unique trees, bush & some pretty exotic bird life. As we stroll along the elevated board walk, we will hear bird song & get glimpses of birds you would not believe are so close to the city! We then head to a coastal walkway. Here you'll stroll along beautiful golden beaches then trek across ancient coastal lava flows. After all that & once you've worked up a hunger we'll deliver locally caught fish n' chips on the beach with a beer, cider or soft drink to wash it down. A classic kiwi picnic! No worries if your vege, just let us know. Go for a swim if you like in our clear blue waters while you wait for the Kai(food). I then drop you back to the city.

What's Included

  • Lunch Fish and Chips on the beach, with your choice of drink. Be it a local beer, cider, wine or soft drink, or the classic water!
  • Alcoholic beverages New Zealand beer or cider to wash down your lunch!
  • Private transportation

    What To Expect

    Takapuna Beach

    From our meeting point we’ll jump into some pre-ordered ubers and make our way across the bridge, soaking up stunning views of our harbour, city and volcanoes as we go. After a ten minute ride out of the city we’ll arrive at a small yet enchanting slice of native bush that even many locals don’t know about. It's an elevated bush walk and if we're lucky we'll start to hear and then see Tui in full voice and flight. These guys are singers and mimickers and they have quite a story! You'll learn about native trees, New Zealand bush medicine and wildlife that you may not have seen before. It's stunning natural beauty, and quite peaceful too.After our bush walk we'll head to a beautiful beach and lovely waterside trail. You'll take in local landmarks and natural beauty including our imposing Rangitoto Volcano, our youngest at just 600 years old.It's an intriguing coastal trail, we'll pass through old lava flows, rock pools and wait until you hear the story about the castle we pass by! Finally we'll reach lovely Takapuna beach where this time of year it's an awesome spot for a swim to cool off. We'll finish with a classic Kiwi fish and chips lunch and a beer on the beach.
