Step back in time and see Auckland in a way few ever have — aboard a genuine 1964 London Routemaster double-decker bus. For 90 minutes, you’ll journey through the heart of the city and along the sparkling waterfront, enjoying elevated views from the iconic bus.
This isn’t just a sightseeing tour — it’s an experience. The Routemaster is a piece of living history, instantly recognisable and guaranteed to turn heads wherever it goes. Inside, you’ll find authentic details, vintage styling, and that unmistakable feeling of classic travel. Outside, the city unfolds around you: yachts in the harbour, the bustle of the CBD, and Auckland’s famous skyline.
Whether you’re here for a day, a week, or you’ve lived in Auckland all your life, the Double-Decker Discovery gives you a fresh perspective on the city — and the chance to be part of something truly unique.
