Overview
Your guide welcomes you at the cruise jetty. Arriving on the Northern shore your first stop on your tour takes you to the breath-taking Rainbow Falls. Discover the three stunning viewing platforms at the top of the Rainbow Falls, all of which offer great photo opportunities!
From here your next stop is the Makana Chocolate Factory. You will get to sample their delicious hand made chocolates and time to visit the adjacent Kauri Workshop which has a selection of crafts and collectibles for sale.
Continue on to the Kerikeri Mission Station which was established in 1819. There are two significant buildings, first The Stone Store which was built in 1832, originally used as a Missionary Society warehouse and the adjacent Kemp House, New Zealand’s oldest building completed in 1821/22 by missionary carpenters and Maori sawyers. Here you will enjoy a guided tour through both historic sites and learn all about their incredible history.
While you are at the Mission Station, you will visit the historic Plough and Feather pub, and enjoy a delicious lunch along with a glass of locally made beer or wine.
Your last stop of the day is the Waitangi look-out Loop. This is a final chance to take photos of the stunning views over Waitangi, Russell, and the Bay of Islands, before your transportation back to the Wharf.
