This vlog kicks off our 4 night mini NZ road trip up north of Auckland as we make our way to the very top of the North Island (Cape Reinga) before returning home down the west coast. We visited a bunch of small towns in the upper Auckland and Northland Region of New Zealand soaking in a whole lot of beautiful countryside and sea views throughout our journey.
We met a bunch of awesome Kiwis along the way and as always made sure to support local New Zealand businesses where we could during our domestic travels too.
In this vlog, we left our family home in East Auckland and began our trip up north to get lunch at Puhoi Valley & Cheese Shop (roughly 40 mins from Auckland city). Shortly after, we stopped by the Honey Centre in Warkworth to pick up a couple of souvenirs before checking into our beautiful lockwood Airbnb lodge in Waiwera. We then ate at a Thai restaurant in Orewa for dinner before turning in for the night given we had a long drive ahead of us the very next day.
We hope you enjoy this three part vlog from our recent mini New Zealand road trip and visit up north!

The Airbnb we stayed at in Waiwera was on a stunning clifftop location with great hosts. We highly recommend Linda and Alastair's lodge if you're looking for an amazing holiday accommodation in NZ. They also have a very cute and friendly little dog called KungFu that took us for a walk to the beach (in our next vlog) :)
