Auckland Private Tours

Auckland tours, Auckland private tours, personal tours, ToursByLocals
Enjoy a flexible tour of Auckland, New Zealand, with a friendly personal guide from ToursByLocals. Your private tour guide knows the Auckland area as only locals do, and is eager to show you New Zealand's beautiful "City of Sails."

Discover the vibrant blend of Polynesian, European and Asian cultures that make this city by the bays such an appealing place to visit. You'll benefit from being with a local guide who knows the real city behind the must-see sights of Auckland.

From eateries favoured by locals, to off-beat activities and attractions, your private guide knows the best-kept secrets and local getaways. Hit the fabulous beaches, tour local vineyards and please your palate with fine wine tasting, or kayak the tidal waters of the Puhoi River — whatever interests you.

Choose an Auckland tour offered by ToursByLocals, and ask your personal guide about customizing your private tour to include exactly what you want to see and do. Go global — tour by local!
Tour Guide Legal Requirements
There is no requirement for a guide to have a license to give tours.

However, if the tour guide is also the driver, then they are required to hold a Passenger Service License and have a Private Hire Registration.

The driver must hold a Passenger Endorsement and must also complete a log book, and must record all work time. Drivers must not exceed the allowable work time.

The vehicle must hold a Certificate of fitness (CoF)

Some rental vehicles are not suitable as Passenger Service vehicles due to the narrow aisle space, seating arrangements and lack of cargo barriers. Most rental company contracts forbid the vehicle being used in a passenger service. report error
