Sheep World - exceptional tour. - Great tour. Marama was a fantastic tour guide, she added lots of information and was very personable. Sheep World was a lot more interesting and fun than we expected. Frankie did a great job explaining all things sheep. The stop in the forest was beautiful and the Honey bee stop was very well done, educational and interesting. Would highly recommend this tour.

Great time on tour- - This was a wonderful day. First timers for Aukland and ALAN did a good naration with questions and answers. The countryside was amazing. Sheepworld reminded me of my childhood with all the farm animals and feeding the lambs. Lunch was provided at Sheepland and also was very good. We would recomment it to anyone. Good day!

lovely Introduction to New Zealand - The brochure description didn’t describe all the lovely experiences, I went hoping I would watch the dogs round up the sheep, hoping the sheep shearing would actually happen, and hoping for lunch. I got all those things in aces, and my driver for the day was fantastic, knowledgeable and interesting. One of the best tour days I have ever had. I also really enjoyed the forest walk.

Coast to Coast Tours & Sheep World - Best part of our entire vacation! - We used Coast To Coast Tours through Viator for this trip and they were absolutely amazing. Marama picked us up and gave us a tour of the most amazing villages and gardens. Her knowledge and personal experience made such a difference. Sheep World was the highlight and the best part of my 51 day vacation! If I ever return to Auckland, Coast to Coast will be the first call I make. We have had so many tour guides on this vacation (Australia, Fiji, NZ, etc), but none compare to Marama. I would absolutely recommend Coast to Coast Tours. Viator booking was easy to use and provided reminders.

Calling all animal lovers, take this tour! - A wonderful, fun experience that supports a good cause- helping children to be able to succeed in life. Our tour guide, Jennine, was great! She explained all about the organization and how the Sheep World farm and restaurant proceeds help to support the school there on the grounds and provide working skills and training. So many animals to see- sheep, a donkey, goats, alpacas, deer, emu, possums, pigs, rabbits, chickens, and the most adorable baby lambs! We got to cuddle with lambs that were 3 to 5 days old. The Sheep herding was fascinating watching the sheepdog work so fast to place the sheep where the farmer wanted them to go. We also saw a sheep shearing demonstration and got to feel how different a sheared sheep was to a wooly one. A fun day with side trips to a honey farm and a nice stroll through a botanical tree forest with huge Kauri trees. Our guide, Jennine was very knowledgeable and patient waiting for a part of our group that was delayed. A great time for kids and adults of all ages!

Beautiful - We spent a lovely day with our guide Marama who was very caring, cheerful and always ready to answer any question. First we saw Auckland Sensory Garden and then went to the Sheepworld. The farm is really worth seeing, you can learn about breeding sheep and how dogs can help with that work. Feeding the animals is really cool, not only for children :)
We also took a walk in a beautiful scenery of Parry Kauri Park Walkway with stunning trees and plants. At the end we went to Honey Centre where we could taste (and buy) different kinds of honey, including mead.
If you want to have a nice relaxing time with your family, I really recommend this trip.
