City & Scenic Sightseeing
Local 2-hour Bus Tour

The Ultimate 2-Hour Tour of Tauranga & Mount Maunganui - take in the beautiful coastal scenery as we drive around Mount Maunganui before crossing the Harbour Bridge into Tauranga. Along the way, we'll pass local landmarks including the historic Elms Mission House and Old Post Office as well as thriving kiwi and avocado orchards.

We'll stop at the Scenic Lookout for approximately 10 minutes where you can capture spectacular photos and enjoy panoramic views across the Bay of Plenty, including the Coromandel Peninsula and the volcanic White Island.

Enjoy the journey with our local, friendly and professional driver-guides, whose knowledge, warmth and genuine Kiwi hospitality bring the area to life.

After the tour, enjoy free time to explore famous Mount Maunganui at your own pace. Browse boutique shops and cafés, relax on the beach or stroll along the picturesque boardwalks that surround the township.
