Saturday 19th July 2025
Hosted Tour: 2 days / 1 night
On the morning of day one we are collected from our Whangarei homes and hit the road towards the might Waikato. On the way we stop at Catalina Bay in Hobsonville. Here we browse the Saturday market for tasty treats and sample the wares at Little Creatures Brewing before carrying on to Hamilton (1 night).
After checking in to our hotel we hit the city for an early dinner, then it’s on to the main event as New Zealand takes on France. A game between these two powerhouse teams is always unpredictable and not to be missed! After the game we head back to the hotel.
The next morning we enjoy a leisurely breakfast at the hotel, then we’re on the road again towards Auckland. Our next stop is at the Sweet Axe Throwing Company, where our dedicated ‘Axe-pert’ will take us through the finer points of axe-throwing as a sport, before we have a friendly tournament to find out who amongst us has the best aim!
From there it’s on to Matakana, with a final stop at 8 Wired Brewing for a tasting paddle and their excellent woodfired pizzas.
