Auckland · 3-DAY EXPERIENCES
The 3 best three-day trips you can book today, with what each costs, how long it runs and who it suits. Number one is first for a reason; start there.
Travel from Auckland to Paihia for three days of Northland highlights. You’ll tour Russell, cruise toward the Hole in the Rock, walk among giant kauri, drive along 90 Mile Beach, visit Cape Reinga and explore the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. Local guides such as Ariel and Daniel lead parts of the trip.
“Great tour, great people on tour from all over the world!”
Spend three days linking New Zealand’s biggest North Island sights: Hobbiton, Te Puia, Mitai, Waiotapu, Taupo, Polynesian Spa and Waitomo. English-speaking guides, small groups of up to 12, central pickup, two Rotorua nights, meals and admission fees keep the planning simple.
“The selection of places is exceptional and our tour guides - a native Maori and Louisse are the best! My Maori guide, exclusive that day coz I am the only one in that tour, even showed me his tribe’s community which made me appreciate his culture more, bad I can’t remember his name but thank you so much for warmly welcoming me in your community! I couldn’t ask for more. This tour is highly recommended!”
Travel from Auckland to Paihia by coach, visit Waitangi Treaty Grounds, tour Cape Reinga and Ninety Mile Beach, then cruise toward Cape Brett and the Hole in the Rock. You get two nights in Paihia, one included lunch, guided visits, and free time, but much of the transport uses public coaches.
“Great experience to join this tour as it includes all the major spots in the NZ's northern area. Bus drivers are very professional and polite. Regarding to the hotel accommodation, the room is quite good. The location is very convenient. It takes about 5 minutes to reach a supermarket. One minor thing is that the kettle in the 3 star hotel is dirty and old. Paihia is definitely the place you have to go if you would like to take a break in a small town/village for few days.”
Pick a harbour, a cave or a vineyard.
