Auckland is a lush coastal paradise in the South Pacific. From the vibrant waterfront, through the busy, ever-expanding Downtown district to the highly individual suburbs and glorious beaches, the city is teeming with life. Auckland’s ever-expanding city centre with its eye-catching skyline is easily explored on foot, starting with the waterfront. Here you will also find the Waterfront Tourist Centre, Britomart bus and train station, useful transport stops and the National Maritime Museum and the America’s Cup Village. The city’s main street, Queen Street, and the roads and malls that flank it, offer exciting shopping options, including the two-storey Queens Arcade. Queen Street continues past the Town Hall featuring a swarm of specialty stores and restaurants. A main attraction in Auckland is High Street, where you will find great bars, including live music, excellent clubs and fine dining. |
