Special Instructions
Hi there, Thank you for booking Auckland Historic Bar Tour. I'll meet you at the Brew On Quay at 102 Quay St, on Saturday between 6 and 6:30pm. Make sure to eat before you come or you might like to get to the bar early and eat there. Remember being drunk might mean that the bars won’t serve you and that you won’t be able to taste some of the delicious free drinks on the tour. I'm usually at the bar from 6pm if you get there early. You will find me in the "Auckland Historic Bar Tour" shirt or ask the lovely bar staff to point you in my direction. Make sure you check us out on social media for photos and interesting facts about New Zealand: Aucklandhistoricbartour on Instagram ‘Auckland Historic Bar Tour’ on Facebook I'm looking forward to meeting you, having a drink, and getting into some New Zealand history.
