Auckland affectionately known as the "City
of Sails" is located on a unique narrow strip of
land rich in Natural, Maori and European history.
Flanked by both the west and eastern coastal shorelines
with only 800 meters between them at the narrowest point.
Highlights include 360 degree views from Mount Eden
(one of 49 volcanic cones in the area), a visit to the
Auckland War Memorial Museum** and a coach tour with
commentary that includes central business
district, university, urban beaches, the Harbour Bridge
and popular dining and shopping villages.
** A $5pp donation is requested on entry to the Museum. |
