Auckland Walking Tour: Small-Group History & Culture Experience

A very interesting historical tour of Auckland through Albert Park, in and around the university precinct and concluding with a walk down to the Britomart and along the harbour front. Along the way we learnt about the history of Auckland and the architecture of buildings, saw vibrant street art and a myriad of lanes filled with coffee shops and eateries. We also went to little spots we would not have found on our own such as the breathtaking views from an upper level of Princess Wharf. Paula is a most excellent guide, she is well organised, extremely knowledgeable and presents the content in a most engaging manner. The small group is an added bonus as we felt connected and involved from the very start. This tour is highly recommended We have been to Auckland several times but this tour made Auckland more exciting and real.

Punctual, organised, insightful, friendly and well paced. Really enjoyed the history, sights, and chats had. Can recommend.

Paula was a baby guide for this small group tour. Learned so much. Plenty of time to ask questions and talk with the other two people on the tour. The stop for coffee was such a nice touch. Bathroom stops perfectly timed. Great tour.

Thank you Paula for this very interesting visit to the history of Auckland. I liked also these two masterpieces of maori sculpture that you showed us. The program was perfect with mixed moments for a living visit. Thanks again and sorry for my strange english ! Chantal from Paris. France

We had the pleasure of having Paula to give us a walking tour of beautiful Auckland. She was excelent communicating with me by email previous to our tour. Paula was knowleageble about the history of Auckland and New Zealand, and had a kind and pleasant demeanor. She treated us with a delicious coffee. I highly recommend to hire Paula as your Auckland Tour Operator.

This walk is a fabulous introduction to Auckland. Paula is so knowledgeable and passionate about her home city and this was reflected in the quality of the tour. We learnt about the history and culture of Auckland as well as some of the city's more quirky features. I would highly recommend this tour.

Paula was very knowledgeable about the history of Auckland. She was very personable and open minded to catering her tour to the interests of the participants I would highly recommend booking a tour with Paula

My wife and I were in Auckland for 2 nights before starting our cruise and wanted to book a walking tour of Auckland as we have had some excellent experiences in the past with these type of tours. We arrived at the meeting point this morning and was met by Paula who after the introductions made us aware that we were the only tour participants as others that were due to take part had rescheduled until the following day so we had our very own private tour. Paula was very knowledgeable and gave up so much history of auckland and the culture and history. The tour pace was easy going ingredients and just right in my opinion. We had a stop part way through the tour in a lovely snack/coffee bar which was very welcoming, this gave us time to chat with Paula in a more general way. The tour finished after around 3 hrs or so down by the harbour. This was an excellent tour with an excellent guide and I would highly recommend Paula and her walking tour of Auckland.

Paula tailors her walks to your needs and interests. We wanted history, architecture, culture, and she delivered all PLUS. And a great resource for places to eat. What a sweetheart!
