Tours can be taken in person or virtually, so even if you aren’t physically in an area, you can still learn about its history and culture. If you prefer to stray from the path and not be confined to the tour route, you can take tours in ‘free roam’ mode. You can even see overviews of tours to help plan your visit.
Walk Auckland is a unique way of exploring the world around you. Through this immersive experience, you will gain an insight into the amazing history, culture and whenua (land) of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.
