Set off on a laid-back island adventure with the Eastern Explorer Bus, giving you the freedom to explore Waiheke’s sunny eastern side. With eight unique destinations and eleven stops along a 110‑minute loop, you can hop on and off at your own pace. From the golden sands of Onetangi Beach to the flavours of Man O’ War Vineyards and Waiheke Distilling Co., there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Your driver’s cheerful commentary adds extra colour to the tour, making the ride as fun as the stops themselves.
Kick things off with a breezy ferry ride from Auckland, then jump aboard the Eastern Explorer Bus waiting right outside the terminal. Scenic views, friendly wharf ambassadors and easy connections make the whole experience a breeze. Allow at least half a day to soak it all in - from the 40‑minute ferry cruise to the 110‑minute bus loop - and enjoy a relaxed island adventure that’s perfect for anyone keen to explore, taste and play together.
