A great way to understand AUCKLAND VOLCANIC FIELD which covers much of the metropolitan area of NZ's largest city. Impressive with good views. Our guide is knowledgeable, polite, and friendly. We enjoyed the tour.

Mike was knowledgeable, and accommodating., there was some walking involved but a really great day. The stop for a coffee provided a nice break

Rainy and foggy. Too expensive for what the tour offers. Aside from the weather that was really bad, the tour was not exciting at all
