Auckland is frequently rated as one of the world’s most livable cities – and it’s easy to see why. With a world-class urban environment and pristine countryside just outside the city, it’s the perfect place for a getaway.
Auckland is the largest Polynesian city in the world, while also home to an array of other cultures and nationalities. These influences have made their way into New Zealand’s contemporary cuisine – and in Auckland you’ll find this fabulous food at every turn.
Start by picking up your rental car in downtown Auckland and from there explore the CBD. Make sure to check out the historic High Street and Vulcan Lane. These streets are famous for their small-town charm, complete with boutiques, alfresco cafes and restaurants.
For a different vibe, check out Ponsonby, a trendy residential neighborhood packed with Victorian houses and streets that are lined with bars, cafes, and restaurants.
What’s also surprising about Auckland is its proximity to beautiful beaches. Jump in your rental car and head across the bridge to Takapuna – the northern suburb known for its white sand beach and its boutiques, bars and restaurants.
Auckland has it all. We know you’ll love it.
