Rangitoto Volcanic Island Tour, Auckland

Introduction

Aboard this 4WD tour, you will head into New Zealand’s fiery past, to learn all about the power of the Rangitoto Volcanic Island.

Beginning with a journey through the largest Pohutukawa forest in the world, you will pass through treasured fern glens and over a rugged lava terrain as you make your way to the base of the summit of Rangitoto.

From here, your hike begins, covering a 900-metre walk along a scenic boardwalk to the top. Incredible views will spur you on and rest stops will be rewarded with magnificent panoramas.

From the top, your effort will be awarded by 360-degree views of Auckland City and the islands of the Hauraki Gulf. Your guide will accompany you back to the road-train, where you will continue the commented tour, taking in the western side of the island before returning to your ship which will carry you home.
