Private Auckland West Coast & Rainforest Day Tour.

Enjoy an amazing day visiting some of the most beautiful places on Auckland’s justifiably famous West Coast. Visit the Arataki Visitor Centre at the gateway to Te Wao Nui o Tiriwa, the great forest of the Maori Ancestor Tiriwa, also known as the Waitakere Ranges. Witness spectacular ocean vistas of both the Manukau Harbour and along Auckland’s wild West Coast. Get up close to some of New Zealand’s unique indigenous flora and fauna. View soaring cliffs, roaring surf and spectacular volcanic black sand beaches. Discover ancient native rainforest including our New Zealand Christmas Trees (Pohutukawa), Nikau Palms, our national icon the Silver Fern. Stand in front of a huge, 1000 year-old Kauri tree, a giant of the forest, before travelling on to the wine-growing region of Kumeu with its 65 wineries plus fruit stalls and restaurants. Here you can choose to have lunch at one of the superb wineries and of course also taste the wine!
