Auckland Sight Seeing

Auckland Sights; the best on a time budget


Auckland, New Zealand could almost be described as a country within a country. It is a city rich in heritage and history that somehow still manages to have a modern aura about it. For those who wish to learn a little more about New Zealand’s past before they enjoy its present, there are several establishments that cater to the preservation of the people of the Pacific and New Zealand’s diverse background.


Most notably would be Auckland Museum filled with Maori artefacts from as far back as the 1830’s. The museum caters for all people from history buff’s to those who are just learning about the country. The museum also holds traditional Maori performances daily so you can see a small slice of New Zealand’s culture first hand.

Once you have satisfied your thirst for knowledge there are several ways to enjoy modern day Auckland. For those who do not have a lot of time to enjoy the beautiful views that Auckland offers, there are plenty of ways to see the city in a short time span.

Auckland offers scenic flights in either small aircraft or helicopters, and for those who enjoy tranquillity; hot air balloon tours are also available. If however you have the time to spare and wish to really immerse yourself in Auckland’s views, mountain bike and motorcycle tours are also available.

For those who are keen to see all that Auckland has to offer but don't want to do the driving and navigating, the city also offers an Explorer bus tour that will take you to all of Auckland’s top attractions. For a small daily fee you will be escorted around Auckland on a guided tour of this city’s beautiful locations.

Auckland is not the type of place you can fully appreciate after just one visit and guaranteed the charm of this city will have you booking your next vacation there as soon as you finish your last.
