Kerikeri Discovery Tour
4 – 6 hours

Take a step back in time and discover Kerikeri with your guide. This small town is full of life with great attractions, art & craft stores, seasonal local produce, food and wine. Visit some of the important historical sites in Northland where early events here shaped New Zealand’s history, learn about the first Polynesian explorers’ arrival, and the 18th century European settlers, traders and whalers (Tau Iwi) who arrived in Aotearoa (NZ) and encountered Maori people.
Discover fascinating stories, see unique Maori culture, and artifacts, walk in their footsteps for a while. This tour takes you on a journey to ancient forests where 1000yr Kauri trees stand, hidden waterfalls and a 18th century trading goods store and model Maori village. We stop off for refreshments if desired or can have a gourmet lunch at a local award-winning winery. We’ll try and get it all in, so you won’t miss a thing.
Waitangi Treaty Grounds and Bay of Islands Tour.

Enjoy a few sample food tastings. Skip across the road to a Kauri workshop for a look, discover a rare gift, or sample handmade chocolates before we go to the honey shop. We visit historical sites and nature reserves as we navigate around the local area. We have refreshment options, to visit a local eatery styled as an English pub which has a range of special craft beers to sample with lunch or as we travel stop off for a wine tasting, then finish with handmade blueberry ice cream.
