Kelly comments

I have a group using this itinerary which is more theirs than mine.

I think it is the best of the North Island, all the "must play" golf courses are included and you can fly north to Paihia (Bay of Islands) and south to Rotorua (1 hour flight).

Rental vehicles are available in all cities & towns if preferred.

Auckland:
The city of sails...Your gateway to the South Pacific paradise, New Zealand's largest city nestled in the vast Hauraki Gulf; it harbours more sailboats than the eye can see.

A city of commerce and industry where you can experience sparsely crowded beaches, rural countryside & forests. Population 1.32 million people
