JEEP SAFARIS
Looking for things to do in the Bay of Islands? Go rogue on a Rogue Pony Jeep Safari. Your own private tour with your local sidekick, Tui or Mark, guiding the way and doing all the driving for you. Available in all weather and all year so we are always here for you.
If you arrive in the Bay of Islands by cruise ship we will pick you up from the tender jetty in Waitangi otherwise we can pick you up either from the Bay of Islands i-Site or your accommodation in Paihia, Opua or Russell.
