It was cool being able to walk among the pheasants and even feed them. Charlie and Queenie, the cockatoos are quite the attraction! Charlie's quite a clever talker :) After the current phase of upgrades it'll be even better. Thanks Andrew for an informative and pleasant tour.
It was a surprise gift for my wife on her birthday. Cam is really nice person he just kept us enjoying the moment and breathtaking views from sky. Love it. Highly recommend Others..
I'd love to give 5 Stars to our star pilot Phil, he did an amazing job to ensure that you enjoy the flight and giving you insights about the important landmarks you see from the top. Thank you Air Auckland for making this flight available to people at a reasonable price as well!! We will keep coming back with new people or at least reccomend this to other people for an amazing experience 😇
Alsum Jason was a great host friendly informative fun open easy to talk to great experience my boy loved it his first timein a small plane. Definietly recomended lifetime memory he will never forget big thanks Jason. Will definetly book again. 10 out of 10
Awesome trip seeing the city and harbours from the air, highly recommend for both locals and visitors. Thanks Phil for a great flight
We thoroughly enjoyed even though weather wasn’t great. we enjoyed the bumpy fly due to the wind. Pilot Mike is a cool guy -friendly and interactive. We would love to do it again on a sunny day to enjoy the amazing view without haziness.
Great flight and awesome pilot
The flight was wonderful, the pilot was a professional and told a lot of interesting things.
Just beautiful
Pilot instructor was really patient and made me feel right at ease. I learnt heaps and was blown away at the awesomeness, the views were unreal and the buzz from doing something so special will last for a long time. It was a wow experience 100% recommend even if you are nervous to begin with.
Cannot thank Pilot Phill enough fro. Start to finish he was calm, thorough and respectful. His knowledge skill & professionalism made our experience and lesson superb! Definitely recommend Air Auckland and Phill. Thanks a million Paul & Preetika.
Air Auckland went above and beyond during our scenic flight to Whitianga. We were transported in a luxurious, air-conditioned shuttle from the airport to the restaurant, making our journey comfortable and hassle-free. Mike, our pilot, was friendly and communicative, pointing out interesting sights along the way. The views were stunning, and the well-maintained plane added to the overall experience. We also had a delicious lunch at Stoked, which was a great addition to the trip. Overall, I highly recommend Air Auckland for anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable experience in Auckland. Their exceptional service and attention to detail made the trip a memorable one.
Took my mum and her sisters aka Golden Girls (60s and 70s) 1st time to Waiheke Island, was such a great experience to able to see the Island on a day trip..would highly recommend, lovely and friendly service..well done!
I rented an e-bike for 2 days and think that that's a good enough time to really explore the island on your own pace. Definitely rent an e-bike and not a typical pushbike if you want to explore all around - as there are a lot of hills on the island! The viewtops are spectacular and great picnic spots. The bike was also easy to use and I was able to have it overnight and borrow a charger to use it again the following day. Joaco was awesome and provided a map and tips for a lot of great places to see. Will try to do again with visiting friends in the future!
Such a good time! Each winery was very different (which is great) but everyone was so lovely and friendly. Definitely recommend!
Great day out on Weiheke exploring the vineyards, the views are absolutley stunning. All the winerys were gorgeous, wine was beautiful and got 3+ glasses at each, and some cheese and crackers too. Ferry over is so quick and easy and bus driver was so easy to find, easy booking and such a fun day out. Can't remember our drivers name but he was so knowledgeable of all the area and made everyone on the bus very welcome even playing games to get us all chatting to each other! If you love wine, great views, beautiful vineyards then this is perfect!
Amazing Tour Guide, beautiful winery's and a wonderful group of people. Thoroughly enjoyed out day.
Great flight, magnificent views, excellent pilot.
Thanks Zoo for the experience loved it, spend it with my babies and they really enjoyed themselves. Although some animals weren't seen but most of the ones the kids wanted to see was out to that was good. Glad we went in the morning because after 11am alot of schools was entering and man that made it crowed up fast.lol but overall Loved it also the book me prices beats it. Thanks for making it cheaper for us who can afford regular price. Much Love !
Amazing, fun, just enough - wooow :)
Justin was great, so easygoing and friendly, especially considering the crazy hen party we had on board! Amazing day, loved the stops and local tidbits. Great BBQ bites! ;)
We had the best time, Vicki was amazing!!!! Boogie Van Brewing was an awesome learning experience and fantastic beer!!! Peacock winery was the total wine experience! And the distillery, wow!! Mix the chocolate and peanut butter vodka!!!!
A cool experienced in Waiheke Island :) But it's only worth with promotion deal, beside this, I only tasted 11 types of wines instead of 12 types and 1 type of olive oil instead of 3. The BBQ is really yummy!! The driver provide good services as well like intro about Waiheke Island and offer a lift at other places rather than fixe at 1 place as we took different ferry to the island. Btw, all the wines is really smooth and great!
We were absolutely impressed by this tour - simple yet thoroughly enjoyable. Our tour guide took us to 3 amazing wineries with beautiful views, tasty wines and lovely hosts. The food at 3rd winery was just amazing, one of best on our NZ trip. Would do it again if I visit Auckland. Thanks a lot.
We had an AMAZING day on this tour! Mudbrick Vineyard was simply stunning! We would have happily stayed there - resting amongst the lavender bushes, views over Waiheke down to the waterfront, wine glass in hand and vintage music playing softly in the background. Heaven!! The Bach was a lot of fun - fantastic views and a truly delicious Pinot Noir we couldn't resist! Finally, Dellows Winery allowed us to round up our wine tasting and we decided to sample some of the spirits on offer too! Thank goodness for the BBQ after as we were rather jolly at the conclusion of this tour and floated merrily back to the city thereafter. Thanks so much, Justin! We can't wait to come back! Candice & Jordan
I really enjoyed this wine tour and Justin is a very friendly and helpful guide. He was very felxible with the pick up and drop off what made it easy for everybody who took part in this tour. You hop on his 20 year old japanese school bus wherever you want and he tells you a little about the island. You'll stop at 3 diffetrnt wineyards and try about 12-14 different excellent wines and there will defenetly be some tastes for everyone. The BBQ afterwards is good as well and also sutable for vegetarians as there are a lot of vegetables, bread and spreads. Thank you! :-)
Thank you so much for a beautiful day with spectacular wine and food
Such a fun Wine and BBQ tour. Loved every minute of it. Thanks
Justin was super friendly and hilarious and knew his stuff!!! Me and Ravi had a great time with good bunch of people, beautiful weather and sip of those wine,spirt,beer and yummy bbq. These lil things in life makes it more memorable when we look back !!! Will def come back. Thank you Justin
What a amazing afternoon we had! Great tastings and nice food! We ended with Mudbrick winery and had a private tasting. It was excellent. Justin (our tour guide) really showed us the island and its beautiful views! Thank you for a great experience!
Friendly staff and a nice place for kids to enjoy the unlimited laser tag. We definitely come back.
