Enjoy a day of hiking and exploring on Rangitoto Island - just a 25-minute ferry ride from central Auckland.

Rangitoto island
The scenery was like nothing else, to be walking along a path and either side of you there was volcanic rock just sitting there was unreal! Would highly recommend. Definitely take food and lots of water for sunny days.

Great views at the top
The top of the island has great views and almost a 360. Take very confortable and mid hike shoes for the walks which are very long to get to the top, specially if you go to the beach first. Not much more to do arround. Don't fall for the "caves", actually just holes in the ground with no possibility to go inside, is a tricky walk and you would be disapointed at the end. Take plenty of water, specially during summer, and take some lunch or snack with you. Nothing to buy on the island. Please take your rubish with you, it is a protected island and they are doing a great job to keep it that way.

Rangitoto
Ferry was almost an hour late. Staff updated once when late and then only much later. I feel staff should update continuously and also provide reason for the ferry delay. Apart from that, the ride was fabulous and the Island awesome

Excellent adventure!
Excellent adventure! Highly recommend for all ages. We booked the 9:15am ferry but when we got there it turned into the 10am ferry. Thank goodness it was not the other way round. Also allow enough time to go to the kiosk to get your tickets - the voucher can not be used.
