on


Voted as one of the best cities to visit by ‘The Lonely Planet’, Auckland is the largest city in New Zealand, which also makes it the largest airhub on the island. Auckland at first just seem like an ordinary big city with nothing new, interesting or fun to do. But actually it is a wrong assumption. It is a hustling, bustling city with a lot to explore and have fun, you just need to know where to look. The best place to start your Auckland experience has to be the world famous SkyCity hotel and SkyTower in the middle of the city. SkyTower is a tower with restaurant at the top and viewing lounge on the top floors. From there you can get panoramic view of the city and also enjoy a great meal.If you want to try your luck it also has 24/7 casino.
A short drive away is a small farmers market with the most delightful goodies, from the best food to the best handicrafts. Matakana Farmers Market is an hour drive away from the CBD and it is near Auckland’s most prestigious vineyards and wineries where you can taste the local wines and have a fine lunch. Other than that you can go on the white sand beaches and enjoy yourself there.

    Clevedon Strawberry farm is a small farm that gives you the opportunity to pick up your own strawberries and make them into ice cream. And there is nothing, YES nothing better than a fresh strawberry ice cream. In case if you aren’t in the mood to pick up some berries that’s okay they also sell strawberries in packs for reasonable prices.
