City Highlights & Icecream Delights

See Auckland from a local’s point-of-view with a tour that showcases some of the city’s most famous attractions. See the yachts sitting in Waitemata Harbor, the Neo-Classic Auckland War Museum, the delightful Mt. Eden Village, and the iconic Auckland Harbor Bridge. Later, enjoy a gelato masterpeice at Giapo Ice Cream, arguably the best ice-cream in New Zealand. Let a local show you around some of Auckland’s most desirable destinations while learning its history and culture. Designed for Princess Cruises and inspired by local expert Karen Thompson Smith, this Princess Exclusive guided tour begins at the pier. Once aboard your coach, you’ll travel along the waterfront past historic Bastion Point. Overlooking Waitemata Harbor, it was the scene of protests by the Maori during the 1970s. Then, you’ll meander through the delightful Mt. Eden Village and on to Eden Park Stadium, New Zealand’s largest sports stadium. After a tour through the popular suburb of Ponsonby you’ll discover why Auckland is known as the 'City of Sails', as your drive takes you around the harbor, home to around 135,000 yachts and launches, more per capita than any other city in the world. Finally, you’ll wind your way around to the foot of the 3,350-foot-long Auckland Harbor Bridge. TOUR NOTES Please note the transport portion of this tour ends at Giapo Ice Cream and guests will need to walk back to the ship (approx. 1km). Giapo is a totally dedicated Gluten Free facility.
