Need help planning 3 days in Auckland
Greetings,
My husband & I and his two brothers are visiting Auckland for the first time in April. We are staying in one of the city apartments.
I understand that we don't have much time to see places but I'd like to ask for suggestions for things to do .
We are in our 40's , loves great food , museums, nature.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
CM

Hi, ccmoral.
The Auckland Museum is an interesting place. Our nearly 3 year-old grandson just loves it, especally the dinosaurs and the nature section.
I know there are some great walks but haven't got them at my fingertips!
Another activity might be to go to Tiritiri Matangi, which is a sanctuary island. There is a lot of walking but fantastic to see the endangered native birds, trees, etc.

The Fodor's online guide is quite a good place to start your research:

We didn't have much time in Auckland, but we did a self-guided walking tour around Devonport and spent a couple of hours at the Auckland Museum. Their Pacific Islands section is really interesting.
