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.

Top activities to do while backpacking in Auckland:

  • Visit Auckland’s Sky Tower for breathtaking views over the ‘City of Sails’. Try the Sky Walk or the Sky Jump if you’re feeling brave.

  • Walk across Auckland’s iconic Auckland Harbour Bridge for stunning views of Auckland’s downtown with Sky Tower and across Auckland Harbour.

  • Auckland is best seen from the harbour, take a cruise or go sailing around Auckland harbour, across to fashionable Devonport, or to the fascinating islands of Waiheke, Rangitoto or Great Barrier Island.

  • Kelly Tarlton’s Underwater World remains a popular place to visit to see New Zealand’s varied marine life up close and personal.

  • Visit the Auckland Museum and Auckland Art Gallery for some of New Zealand’s best Maori and fine art collections.

  • Take in some live music or live theatre – Auckland is New Zealand’s entertainment capital.

The kitchen was the biggest, best equipped and cleanest I have seen in 5 months of travelling. The dining room and lounge were spacious and people talked to each other creating a good atmosphere but this is not a party place.

HostelBookers, 18 February 2009

We arrived in Auckland about 4AM and the hostel staff stashed our bags in a secure area and we had access the common areas to chill after a 15 hour plane flight. We played pool, watched TV, Internet and napped till check in. Just like home. Couldn't do that at some expensive stuffy hotel. Very clean, lots of space and very friendly. I'd stay again on a return trip.

Toni, USA, HIHostels, 24 December 2008

It was very clean, as always and no bunk-beds which is always a plus. It's right in the town centre and it's got massive communal areas. Everything you could want from a hostel.

HostelBookers, 7 December 2008

Everything your need: good beds, big kitchen with lots of facilities, clean bathrooms, helpful staff... one of the best hostels I stayed in!
