Port of Auckland Public Bus Tours

Fancy seeing what the port looks like in action? Come and explore Auckland’s port on a public bus tour.

Jump on board the bus and drive right into the heart of the port on this 45-minute bus tour. This behind-the-scenes experience shows you a working port from the inside, big machinery and all!

With commentary from our very own port workers, come and learn about where your goods come and go from, the three largest cranes in New Zealand, and the world's first full sized ship handling electric tugboat, Sparky! We are never short of things to talk about at Port of Auckland and we can’t wait to take you beyond the red fence and share our knowledge with you.

As you will be entering a Customs Controlled Area (CCA) you will need to present a tamper proof photographic ID if you are 16 years and over. Anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian and must have their identity vouched for. It is against the law to enter a CCA without ID. If you don’t bring ID, we are legally not allowed to let you enter and you will not be let on the bus. Drivers Licence or Passport are both acceptable forms of ID.
