Højdepunkter

Discover Devonport on a guided walking tour through one of Auckland’s oldest seaside suburbs. Starting at the historic Devonport Ferry Terminal, this 60–75 minute, 3km journey explores volcanic cones like Mount Victoria (Takarunga), Māori heritage, and Victorian architecture. Highlights include the Michael King Writers Centre, The Vic cinema, Holy Trinity Church, and Devonport Library—near the site of New Zealand women’s first votes in 1893. Walk past heritage sites like Old Albert tree, naval relics, and the Devonport Yacht Club, and learn about the town’s role in the nuclear-free movement. This tour blends history, culture, and panoramic harbour views in a charming, village setting.

About Waiheke Island

Waiheke Island is a green, hilly island in the Hauraki Gulf east of Auckland, known for vineyards and olive groves, sandy beaches and sculpture.

Waiheke Island lies in the Hauraki Gulf, east of Auckland, and its rolling hills are covered in pasture, bush and vineyards. The main village, Oneroa, has cafés and shops above a sheltered bay, and the long, curving sands of Onetangi Beach run below the northern hills. The island's vineyards grow Bordeaux-style reds and syrah in its sunny, mild climate, and many have restaurants with views across the gulf.
