We will arrive in Auckland, New Zealand’s lively "City of Sails," where urban excitement meets natural beauty. Framed by the sparkling waters of the Pacific Ocean and the Tasman Sea, this city is alive with possibilities. Over 60 extinct volcanic cones dot the landscape, while the harbor buzzes with sails, embodying the city’s laid-back coastal vibe.
After arrival, we’ll transfer to the luxurious 5-star Fable Auckland, a boutique hotel blending old-world elegance with modern flair. Located in the heart of the city, near chic boutiques, the Viaduct Basin, and the Sky Tower, it’s the perfect place to start your New Zealand adventure. We’ve arranged for early check-in, so you can settle in and enjoy a delicious breakfast at Cooke’s Restaurant—your first taste of New Zealand’s culinary delights.
Take time to relax or explore the city at your own pace. Stroll along the waterfront, savor a relaxed lunch at a nearby café, or head up to the Sky Tower for breathtaking views of the city’s stunning skyline.
In the evening, we’ll gather for a welcome dinner at one of Auckland’s premier downtown restaurants, celebrating the start of our journey with a sumptuous meal and a taste of New Zealand’s fine wines.
Let’s toast to the adventure ahead!
