Mindfulness with history

If you want to know Napier and add a purpose to your visit, this tour is a must to do. The experience made me think about my own country and how vital it is to restore the Art and culture. That is what is our identity and that’s what truly helps you appreciate everything and everyone around.

Good tour

We really enjoyed this tour. It starts with a talk and then a film on the background to how an earthquake in 1931 led to Napier being rebuilt in a consistent style. The walking tour was led by a knowledgeable guide and we covered most of the centre of the city
