Auckland Small Group Tour | Coast & Rainforest Walk
Auckland Small Group Tour | Coast & Rainforest Walk
Your full day excursion goes first to the Arataki Centre in the Waitakere Ranges. The breathtaking panoramic views from the sweeping decks extend from the Tasman Sea to the Pacific Ocean. Absorb the area’s history and admire the magnificent traditional Maori carvings that stand guard there.
Continue further west with your knowledgeable and highly experienced guide to the wild and rugged west coast where you get to experience the isolation of the area. Your guide walks you through an area of Auckland’s coastal rainforest where they explain the local flora and fauna with its giant tree ferns growing alongside picturesque streams in regenerating rainforest. You then get the opportunity to stroll on an awe-inspiring beach and experience the uniqueness of the black sand and the clear ocean breeze. The beach you visit is where the film “The Piano” was filmed. We provide a kiwi-style picnic lunch at a scenic location.
Your journey then takes you to an area of untouched original rainforest where mature 1000 year old kauri trees tower over the unique flora and fauna that has developed separately from the rest of the world for millions of years. Your guide will explain about the native species as you walk amongst New Zealand’s famous kauri trees and native birds.
