What a wonderful couple of hours spent on Saturday morning exploring downtown Auckland with our fabulous guide Sarah from Auckland Free Walking Tours. To think we have walked… read more past and stepped over so many wonderful historical sites without a blink of an eye! Our group included not only out-of-towners, but also Auckland locals who too were intrigued with the stories and information given by Sarah. We will most definitely recommend this tour to our friends and what a great kick-start to post COVID19 exploration of our own backyard!
