Start your tour with a visit to Mount Eden, the highest volcano among Auckland's 52 volcanoes. Admire the spectacular views of the city and its harbors from the summit. Continue to Cornwall Park, the largest volcanic park in Auckland. Stroll through the park and see the famous One Tree Hill.
Next, visit the MJ Savage Memorial Park in Mission Bay. Enjoy the beautiful garden and panoramic views from east to west. See the memorial to Michael Joseph Savage, New Zealand's first Labour prime minister (1935-1940) overlooking the Waitemata Harbour.
Continue to the Holy Trinity Cathedral, the world’s only architectural example of a Pacific-Gothic cathedral. Admire the grandeur and beauty of the cathedral and see St. Mary Church, which is made almost exclusively from heart Kauri, a New Zealand native timber, and is one of the few timber churches in the world built in the Gothic style.
On the afternoon tour, visit the Winter Garden instead of the Holy Trinity Cathedral due to closing time. Finally, see the Auckland Harbour Bridge, which connects the metropolis of the central business district to the North Shore and beyond to Northland.
