Great tour. - Robert was very knowledgeable and modified the tour to take us to places we had not already seen, some off the beaten path. We had a very enjoyable tour.

Outstanding - Our group of 6 adults ended a cruise in Auckland and we wanted to take a private tour of the City and surrounding areas. We were fortunate to find the Black Car tour. It included many interesting stops. Our driver, Kris, was very accommodating, friendly and knowledgeable. He went the extra mile by meeting us at the pier and taking our luggage to our hotel then returning to pick up the rest of our group.
We had many stops during the 5+ hours of the tour and never rushed us at any of the stops. Kris shared his extensive knowledge of New Zealand and Auckland. The Mercedes vehicle was comfortable and just the right size for our group.
At the end of our tour, Kris helped us arrange a transfer to the airport and picked us up the next morning.
It was one of the best tour experiences we've had. Thank you, Kris!!

An Amazing Auckland Tour - Kris picked our group of 6 up from the cruise ship terminal. We had a very comfortable tour in his Mercedes Touring Van. Kris is very knowledgeable about the history of Auckland. He took us to so many beautiful and interesting places in Auckland. We had an amazing tour. He is very friendly. He gave us plenty of time at each stop to see the area and take pictures. We had many questions about this area. He answered all of our questions. This private tour was so much better than the big bus tours offered by the cruise ship. I highly recommend this tour!

Absolutely awesome Tour. - We had the pleasure of taking the Auckland city tour with Kris in his black luxury Van, from the minute he picked up from the hotel he was amazing with the onboard amenities of cold bottles of New Zealand spring water, on board Wifi to enable us to upload our pictures! His knowledge of the local areas and attractions that we saw was spectacular, I would highly recommend Black Car Tours.

Intro to Auckand - This private tour was perfect for the four of us. Kris is a very good communicator. He had an excellent plan for showing us the best of Auckland. He picked us up in a large Mercedes 8 passenger van, pristine condition with waters for everyone. Some of the high points were a visit to Cromwell Park, One Tree Hill, Mount Eden, Devonport, and Bastion Point. We were treated to beautiful views of the city and was able to take great pictures. Kris shared his tremendous depth of knowledge of the city's history and the Maoris who settled there. We've taken a lot of tours and Kris rates a 10 out of 10! Wonderful day!!
