We loved visiting SEA LIFE Kelly Tarlton's Aquarium! Just a 10-minute drive from the city centre, it’s very convenient. The Penguin Habitat, Shark Tunnel, and Turtle Bay were the highlights. Great place for families with kids — fully indoors, so no sun or rain to worry about. The Mission Pack is worth collecting!

very friendly staff, views were beautiful even though it was overcast when we went, if you’ve been to other towers around the world it’s definitely a must do to compare how high you can go!

The tour guide was friendly and helpful. If you enjoy natural scenery, Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland and Blue Spring are must-visit attractions.

Weta Workshop Unleashed in Auckland was a very interactive and immersive experience from start to finish. The exhibits pulled us into the world of movie magic in such a creative way. Our guide was great and amusing, adding fun energy to the tour. I only wished there was more time to fully soak in every detail. Nonetheless, it was a fantastic experience that I’d definitely recommend.
