Auckland’s blend of Harbour, islands, Polynesian culture and modern city environment has created a lifestyle ranked amongst the best in the world.

This itinerary features 4 days and 3 nights at the Hilton Hotel.  Hilton Auckland, a boutique-style hotel, located 300 meters out to sea on Princes Wharf, is a welcoming haven within 5 minutes' walk from the city's main shopping precinct, the ferry terminal, the Viaduct Harbour and within a stone's throw of theatres and the heart of the city. The hotel's unique design and location make the most of this enviable waterfront position.

Spend a day exploring Auckland from a genuine Maori perspective. First visit Maungakiekie (One Tree Hill), originally the site of a Maori fortified village.

Your guide will explain the traditional history of this sacred mountain and point out evidence of the 5,000 strong Maori community who lived in this area, tell stories about the reason why this hill is so significant to Maori and explain about the controversial history of more recent times.

Next drive out to a boutique village where you can buy your lunch at a cafe, enjoy mixing with the locals and view some authentic Maori / NZ made arts and crafts.

Drive to the west coast, and through the beautiful native rainforest to your next stop, a bush walk set beside a fresh water stream. Here you will be able to walk amongst the plants and trees and learn some of our ancestral knowledge of the traditional Maori medicinal and practical uses for them. Learn about the Maori Creation stories and Tane Mahuta- the God of the Forest.

Finish the day in the realm of Tangaroa God of the Sea with a walk along the velvety sands of one of Auckland's famous black sand surf beaches.

You other day is spent on beautiful Waiheke Island.  Helicopter from downtown Auckland in the modern executive helicopter on a scenic flight of a lifetime over Auckland City, Harbour Bridge, Devonport, Hauraki Gulf, Rangitoto and Waiheke Island en route to Stonyridge Vineyard.

Stonyridge is a boutique winery nestled amongst the valleys of Waiheke Island. Indulge in a 3 course lunch overlooking olive groves and the picturesque vineyard.  Spend some time exploring the vineyard before your ferry transfer back to Auckland. geolocation - multi currency
