Discover Auckland's sweet and savory side with local expert Karen Thompson Smith, whose knowledge and fascinating details will add to your experience. From the pier, you'll follow your friendly and knowledgeable guide through the laneways and precincts of City Center. Along the way, you'll see some of the most famous buildings including the Sky Tower, the tallest man-made point in the Southern Hemisphere. As you treat your taste buds to a variety of local delicacies and delights in a number of established shops, you'll learn how Auckland's cuisine draws inspiration from Europe, Asia and the Pacific islands of Polynesia. You'll also hear fascinating stories only a local would know such as locations where sailors jumped through hidden doors in the oldest bars to avoid their captain's wrath, and how a little lane from the old barracks became one of the most famous in the city.
