Auckland

The original Capital of New Zealand, Auckland is steeped in pioneer history. (City Groove is just accross the road from the first Government House and a short walk from the National Museum).

Auckland, 'The City Of Sails' is the largest city in New Zealand and the most culturally diverse. A melting pot of nationalities and cultures residing and visiting Auckland with the geographic backdrop of volcanic mountains and the Waitemata Harbour create an atmosphere that is uniquely Auckland.

Playing host to the Americas Cup yachting regatta put New Zealand and Auckland on the map for many, sparking the redevelopment of the Viaduct Harbour and the Auckland waterfront and perhaps bringing Auckland into the 21st century. Now a modern city with all facilities that you would expect and more, Auckland makes a great destination for any discerning traveller and is the ideal place to start and finish any New Zealand trip.
