City Meander, Departs from the city centre on foot

Allow Two hours

Kia ora | Hello

We look forward to hosting you in our wonderful city. We start by introducing
the meaning behind the name Ōtautahi and follow the footsteps of our
ancestors, sharing many traditional Māori and Settlers stories and ways of
life. We also introduce our guiding principle of manaakitanga including our
whakatauki (proverb) ‘Kia atawhai ki te iwi’, Care for your people. Our guides
also teach you a traditional māori greeting. We walk past traditional mahinga
kai (food gathering) and pā (māori village) sites and bring to life the
stories of the past and present as how they have been woven into our emerging
city. We wander the laneways enjoying morning tea and some special tastings
from our local artisan producers.

Mā te wa | Until then

Your Amiki Guides
