    Daiane is the best!

    "This tour with Daiane was the best way to start my adventures in Auckland. As I just arrived in town the previous day, Daiane’s insights and recommendations were extremely valuable. Although this wasn’t a food tour, she did show me some of the best restaurants and showed me some websites that would help me make reservations and gain more information into the local food scene. She was knowledgeable about everything; local history, hiking, transportation, shops, art galleries, theatre, markets, parks, etc. I especially appreciated her friendliness and personality. I highly recommend her. "

    Perfect Orientation to Auckland

    "We booked the 2-hour orientation tour with Priscilla and could not have been happier with the time we spent. The weather did not cooperate, as it was raining pretty hard, so we all did an audible and were given a driving tour around the city and across the bridge to the North Shore. Great views, great conversation, and we learned a lot about Auckland and its geography. Priscilla was outstanding. "

    Großartiger Einstieg!

    "Wir sind zum ersten Mal in Neuseeland und es war toll, mit dieser sympathischen und klugen Frau durch Auckland zu streifen und vielfältige Informationen über die neuseeländische Geschichte, Kultur, Natur und die Menschen zu erhalten. Ester kennt sich super aus, konnte alle unsere Fragen beantworten und hat uns zu weiteren Unternehmungen inspiriert. Vielen Dank für diese großartige Erfahrung!"

    Review about Daiane Cristine

    "Daiane was a great tour guide! She modified her normal route so that we could experience some special outdoor markets that only happen once a month. She was very knowledgeable and shared some great happy hour and restaurant special tips. She was punctual and very communicative. Overall wonderful way to get to know Auckland at the beginning of our trip."
