"Peter – Your Guide, Your Host, Your Driver... Your No Worries." Born and raised in the heart of New Zealand’s deep south, I’m a fourth-generation Kiwi with a deep passion for my homeland, Aotearoa. After moving to Auckland in 1990, it took a little time to adjust to city life, but soon enough, I found my rhythm in the bustling urban environment. Now, I’m a proud Aucklander, but I must admit—you’ll never take the South out of me fully! I still carry that Southern warmth and love for the land wherever I go. And any sports team called Otago! I come from a small business background, where I learned the vital importance of 'Keeping the Customer Satisfied.' This experience instilled in me a deep commitment to maintaining professional standards at all times and ensuring every client feels valued and cared for. I’m passionate about showing off New Zealand to visitors, whether it’s guiding you through the sights and sounds of this beautiful country or sharing stories and fun facts about its culture, history, and natural wonders. I believe that every tour should be unique and personal, with a strong focus on helping you feel at home in our land. When I’m not sharing the best of New Zealand with others, you’ll often find me outdoors—whether I’m walking through scenic trails, fishing in our pristine waters, or boating around our beautiful coastline. I believe that experiencing the natural beauty of New Zealand is an essential part of what makes this country so special, and I love sharing those outdoor adventures with others. I love to travel, explore new cultures, and spend time with my family. Whether I’m in Brazil, Japan, or at home, life is full of adventure, and I feel truly blessed. As a husband, father, brother, and loyal friend, I know the value of meaningful connections. I promise to greet you with a warm smile and a hearty "haere mai" (Welcome), making sure your time in New Zealand is not just a tour, but a memorable experience. Peter C

Overview of your Auckland tour

A perfect combination of urban exploration and natural beauty, showcasing Auckland’s vibrant cityscape and the rugged charm of its west coast beaches. Muriwai has always been my West Coast beach of choice. With its dramatic black sand beaches and crashing surf, it offers an unforgettable experience for visitors seeking a raw, untamed connection to nature. The gannet colony, perched on the cliffs, adds an extraordinary wildlife aspect to the visit, while the surrounding trails and viewpoints provide ample opportunity to soak in the rugged beauty. The two coast lines of New Zealand couldn't be more different. The black sands and wild ruggedness of the west versus the white sands and calmer turquoise waters of the east coast create a striking contrast that perfectly encapsulates the diversity of New Zealand’s landscapes.

Transport details
Type: Private Transportation / Category: Crossover

My 2019 Subaru Outback is the quintessential Kiwi lifestyle vehicle. It is in excellent condition. It is safe, has all modern tech features and comfortable. It will carry up to four passengers although four passengers will mean three in the back. Possibly not ideal for longer trips but half day or one day tours tours not so bad. Size dependent.
