The tour is approximately 7 hours, including travel to and from Auckland.

We recommend comfortable walking shoes, weather-appropriate clothing, and a light rain jacket in case of rain.

Yes, the tour is avialable for children aged 5 years and up, but keep in mind there is moderate walking involved.

Bringing a water bottle is recommended. You can bring your own snacks, however a picknick lunch is included.

This full day tour is for lovers of nature and walking. Your experienced local nature guide will take you on a range of rainforest, beach and clifftop short hikes. The black sand beaches and rainforest of West Auckland &nbsp;are unique in New Zealand and this tour is a great way to experience the best they have to offer.

After pick up from your Auckland city centre hotel we have a short (30min) drive to the Arataki Visitor Centre - gateway to the coastal rainforest. Enjoy amazing panoramic views over the rainforest back to the city and across to Auckland&rsquo;s southern harbour. &nbsp;The visitors centre is also home to some traditional Māori carvings and your guide will talk about them and explain their significance for the area.

Your eco-tour includes a guided short hike in an area of stunning rainforest, home to our unique trees and plants which have developed separately from the rest of the world for millions of years. Your guide will explain about the local plants and animals as you walk through the forest. Your guide will give you insights into how Māori would have used the native plants for food and medicine. During the day you will also visit one of our iconic Kauri trees.

Next your guide will find a scenic location for you to enjoy a picnic lunch (You get to choose what you have from a local bakery!). After lunch we take a short hike along the clifftop tracks with stunning views along the coast and out across the Tasman Sea.

During the day we go to an awe-inspiring west coast beach where you can stroll along the soft black sand beach and watch the surf waves crashing in.
