Auckland One Day Tours

From the Scenic Hotel Auckland and Back Again

You can accomplish a great deal in just one day in Auckland as our one-day tour suggestions show. Nearly all of our tour ideas can be independently-taken, but using local Auckland tour operators can take away any map-reading, timing and driving stresses. Our staff at the Scenic Hotel Auckland can help with recommendations and making tour bookings – simply email ahead or ask at reception.

Auckland Central City One Day Walking Tour

Grab a map and some comfortable shoes and let your feet do the touring. From our central location, all the major attractions of Auckland are within walking distance including: Albert Park, Auckland Museum, Sky Tower and SkyCity, cathedral of St Patrick and St Joseph, Viaduct Harbour, Auckland harbour bridge (bridge climbs and bungy jumps), Auckland Town Hall. Guided City Walks are also available, which last for approximately 2 hours.

Auckland One Day Sailing Tour

Auckland is known as the City of Sails and on a fine day, there is almost nothing better than enjoying the sights and smells of the city from a beautiful sailing yacht. Follow in the wake of the America's Cup Yacht Race entrants and relax (or take the helm) through Waitemate Harbour to the islands of the Hauraki Gulf. Sailing tours can include lunch and the opportunity to visit and swim at Rangitoto Island.

Auckland One Day Winery Tour

You can sample the best from local vineyards and wineries by letting a tour guide take the wheel. There are over 100 wineries in the Auckland region and by using popular wine tour guides (who run either half-day or full-day wine tours) you can visit the wine regions of Matakana, Waiheke Island (one of the country's most prestigious boutique wine regions), Kumeu region and Matua Valley. Tours often take in the region's beauty spots and may include beer and cheese-tastings too.
