About this experience
Auckland Scenic Harbour Cruise with Live Commentary is a sightseeing cruise on Auckland's Waitemata Harbour, running for 1.5 hours and departing from downtown Auckland. The harbour sits at the heart of a city built across a volcanic isthmus, with the Waitemata connecting the CBD to the Hauraki Gulf, making it one of the more geographically distinctive urban waterways in the southern hemisphere. Live commentary runs throughout, pointing out landmarks along the shoreline and providing context on the city's maritime history and geography. From the water, passengers take in views of the Auckland skyline, the Harbour Bridge, and the surrounding coastline that is difficult to replicate from land. The relaxed, open-deck format suits a wide range of visitors, from those new to Auckland to those looking to see a familiar city from a different angle. Tickets cover the full 1.5-hour cruise with live on-board commentary included, departing from the downtown waterfront.
