4 Miami Beach, Napier is one of the best examples of this style, with many of its structures well preserved. Take a walk down Marine Parade, a tree-lined ocean boulevard with fountains and gardens, or go out to the country to enjoy the lovely vistas, tour superb area vineyards and relax with a glass of wine. 16th Jan 2018 Tauranga Arrive 10:00 - Depart 19:00 Go walk-about and explore Tauranga, set on the beautiful Bay of Plenty.
