An authentic cultural journey through Whangārei
Experience Te Ao Māori with Tu Tika Tours
Connect with the stories, traditions and whenua of Whangārei through an intimate cultural journey
Kia ora and welcome to Whangārei, the gateway to Te Tai Tokerau. So much more than a tour of this breathtaking part of New Zealand, the Tu Tika Tour is an invitation into Rangimarie Harding’s world, her culture and the place she calls home.
A proud wāhine Māori, passionate storyteller and local guide, Rangimarie welcomes you and shares the places, people, stories and traditions of the whenua she calls home.
You’ll discover Whangārei through a Māori perspective, visit Otuihau Whangārei Falls, while gaining an insight into Te Ao Māori through the eyes of someone with a deep connection to this land.
It is a small, personal experience where there is time for genuine kōrero, questions, laughter and unexpected conversations. You’ll leave with new friendships, lasting memories, and an understanding of Aotearoa that stays with you long after your journey ends.
A journey you'll never forget
A visit to Whangārei can show you beautiful places, but a journey with Rangimarie gives you the opportunity to understand them differently. Tu Tika Tours welcomes visitors from around the world who want more than another day of sightseeing. If you’re looking for an authentic experience that leaves you with a deeper appreciation of Māori culture, Rangimarie looks forward to welcoming you.
