About Auckland
Auckland city is New Zealand’s largest city and will probably be your gateway city to the rest of New Zealand. But make sure you stay awhile in Auckland, the ‘City of Sails’ - the vibrant, colourful and cultural capital of New Zealand.
Try some of these great Auckland activities: check out the panoramic views from the Sky Tower (or walk around or jump from it!), experience life underwater at Kelly Tarlton’s Underwater World, walk across the Auckland Harbour Bridge, take a harbour cruise across to the fascinating Rangitoto Island, the retreat of Waiheke Island or fashionable Devonport, climb the volcanoes and ancient Maori Pa sites, try canyoning through lush rainforest or go sailing with the many Auckland yachties on the harbour.
As the largest city in New Zealand Auckland has a pulsing music and theatre scene and you could shop till you drop at one of Auckland’s many malls. To learn something of New Zealand and Maori history the Auckland Museum has a world class collection and the Auckland Art Gallery has New Zealand’s best collection of fine art. The famous One Tree Hill, Auckland Maritime Museum, Viaduct Basin and beautiful Winter Gardens are other places worth a visit while in Auckland.
After you’ve seen everything there is to see in Auckland (could take a while) then take a day trip out to the wild West Coast surf beaches, up to the Bay of Islands or down to Rotorua, Waitomo or the Coromandel Peninsula. Auckland really does have it all!
Be sure to take your YHA card to grab the many discounts in and around Auckland.
