About Mt Eden Village:
Mt Eden Village is conveniently located in the central urban
Auckland area. It is only a short 15-minute bus ride on #274
or #277 bus from the Britomart transportation area in Downtown
Auckland. The Village itself is very compact and many of the
shops that we visit are located next door to each other.
There are many other interesting shops to browse in the Village
after the tour.

Our new Mt Eden Village Foodie Walking Tours have really taken
off! We been thrilled by the response - we even had a request
for a special tour on 31 August. I roped in my colleagues to
trial the tour prior to that and their suggestions were much
appreciated.
Our first official tour was on Wednesday, 7 September and based on
the glowing comments, people love exploring the Village. The
tour runs every Wednesday (except for 14 September) and we will do
tours on other days upon arrangement. Join
Us!
