Tauranga Cruise Ship Shore Excursions

Welcome to the Port of Tauranga located in Mount Maunganui (not Tauranga). Tauranga and Rotorua is often chosen as one of the best ports of call in New Zealand simply because of the variety of activities that the area has to offer. The Mount is a resort town that really comes to life in summertime. There are numerous things to see and do from walking around Mauao (The Mount), visiting the bay or beach or shopping along with plenty of restaurants and bars to choose from, all within a short walk of the cruise ship. The city of Tauranga is a 20 minute drive away and accessible by bus or ferry. Listed below are a selection of recommended tours but you can also visit the Activities page for more options.
