Tour style – Culture & History

3 days

As the name suggests this pass is the Bay of Islands and Cape Reinga. It’s not your usual road trip up as the bus hits the sands and travels along 90 Mile Beach. On one side the sea will stretch to the horizon and on the other side the towering sand dunes will begin to grow taller and taller (great for sandboarding later!). Cape Reinga is a beautiful place where 2 oceans meet in a violent exchange of waters. It is also a very important place for the Maori people of New Zealand.

  • Auckland to Paihia (Bay Of Islands)

    Take a trip to the winterless north and pack as much as you can into a weekend! We arrive in the Bay of Islands around midday and check out the sights surrounding Paihia, including the historical location of Waitangi. Northland is rich in history and Maori culture and with its clear water, huge kauri forests, and 144 islands to explore you will soon see why Kiwi Experience heads up north. Swim with the dolphins, experience the Excitor Fast Boat, ride out to the famous hole in the rock, or go kayaking, sailing, fishing, diving, snorkelling, or just relax on the beach!
