Auckland Harbor
From a Small Sailboat on an Overcast Day-- Where I got sunburned and blistered. Watch that Ozone in NZ Traveling around Auckland can be enough to start your holiday off to a friendly fight. Just because you find an off ramp, don’t expect an on ramp to be nearby. It’s like picking your way through a maze to get back on the motorway. We spent part of an otherwise pleasant afternoon driving back and forth under the motorway with, “Not that road, we tried that one before.” It can be done, just don’t cut yourself short on time and don’t expect to find a parking space waiting with a welcome sign.
RVs and rental cars are available at the airport. If you’re staying longer than a month, you might consider buying a vehicle. All vehicles are inspected for safety by the government before applying for a Certificate of Registration. If you’re interested in purchasing an auto, try the
Car Fair. You’ll find the Local Buses are clean, convenient and run on time. A shuttle is available from the airport to the central Auckland bus station near Victoria Park. For sightseeing, buses are convenient- or spend a little more and hire a taxi.
