Below is the itinerary for Meet Me Auckland.

Kia Ora and welcome to New Zealand! Upon Arrival, you’ll check into your accommodation and take some time to chill before meeting with your group and awesome tour leader in the afternoon. Your tour guide will give you a rundown on what’s happening this week and you’ll receive your SIM card which you can use straight away! Once we’ve got the official stuff out of the way, we’ll head to our favourite pub for a welcome dinner. Grab a drink and get to know the others in your group before your week of adventure begins.

Today join our group info session where we’ll explain everything you need to know about travelling around this amazing country. From Hobbiton to the adventure capital of Queenstown, we’ll tell you all about New Zealand’s must-visit destinations! If you’re here on a working holiday visa, we’ll talk to you about finding work, getting your tax number set up and other important bits like setting up your bank account. From there, it’s time to explore Auckland on our city tour! You’ll see the main hot spots, get the scoop on where to find the best coffee and food, where to go out & much more.

Time to explore the beautiful coastline of New Zealand! In the morning we depart from Auckland and start our journey to The Bay of Islands. Along the way we stop at the scenic Whangeri Falls for a swim and some lunch! Upon arrival, we'll check in to our accommodation and spend the rest of the day exploring the town and beautiful beaches of Paihia!

Today we explore the inner Bay of Islands on the most extensive historical cruise in the Bay. Enjoy a swim or a coastal walk on Urupukapuka Island during our island stop at Otehei Bay. In the afternoon we set off in search of dolphins and other marine life on our Hole in the Rock Cruise. We get to enjoy the spectacular views as we journey right to the end of the Cape Brett Peninsula, to the famous Hole in the Rock on Motukokako Island.

Today we head back to Auckland for the remainder of the tour. Enjoy some free time in the morning to shop, explore or just hang out on the beach! Once we arrive back in Auckland you have the rest of the evening to explore the city at your leisure.

Get ready for another full day of adventure! Starting with a short ferry ride to Devonport we’ll spend the day checking out the famous beaches, volcanos, shops and pubs in the area. Then its time for a party! Experience the best of Auckland’s nightlife with a bar crawl led by your group leader and free drinks along the way!

After a week of fun exploring the stunning Northern Island and all that the city of Auckland has to offer, it’s time to plan your next move!
