AUCKLAND

New Zealand's city of sails - and adventure.

Auckland is where AJ Hackett Bungy NZ brought adventure into the city. The Harbour Bridge Bungy launched in 2003 and turned a morning commute backdrop into one of the world's great urban adrenaline experiences. Today two Auckland sites offer five experiences for every kind of thrill-seeker: the Bridge Bungy sits beneath the Harbour Bridge, the Bridge Climb takes you up and over it, and Auckland's iconic Sky Tower is home to SkyRide, SkyJump and SkyWalk - taking you up, around and off 192 metres.

Best Activities in Auckland

From the famous leap off the Harbour Bridge to the wind-in-your-hair SkyWalk around the outside of Sky Tower, Auckland packs serious adventure into a city setting. The Bridge Bungy and Bridge Climb put you directly above the Waitematā Harbour. The SkyJump is a wire-guided descent from 192 metres. The SkyWalk takes you around the Sky Tower's open-air rim 192 metres up. And the SkyRide - Auckland's newest experience - is a lift and drop ride around the outside of the tower with nothing but harbour views and sky all around you.

Discover Our Auckland Experiences

One iconic location, two legendary venues. Everything at the Harbour Bridge - the Bridge Bungy and Bridge Climb - is accessed from the AJ Hackett base at Westhaven, just minutes from the CBD. The Sky Tower experiences - SkyJump, SkyWalk and SkyRide - are accessed via the Sky Tower on Victoria Street in the heart of the city. Both venues are easily combined in a single day.

Travelling to Auckland

Flying into Auckland Airport

Auckland Airport (AKL) is New Zealand's main international gateway, located at Māngere, roughly 25 kilometres south of the city centre. It handles direct long-haul flights from Australia, Asia, the Pacific, North America and the United Kingdom, as well as domestic connections from Queenstown, Wellington, Christchurch and other centres.

From the airport, the Harbour Bridge Bungy base at Westhaven is approximately 30 to 35 minutes by car or taxi without traffic. The Sky Tower is in the central city, also around 30 to 35 minutes from the airport. SkyBus services run frequently between the airport and the CBD. Rental cars, rideshare and taxis are all available at the terminal.

Driving to Auckland

From within the North Island

Auckland is well connected by road. Approximate drive times from key centres: Hamilton around 1.5 hours via SH1, Tauranga around 2.5 hours, Rotorua around 2.5 to 3 hours, Taupo around 3.5 hours, and Wellington around 8 hours via SH1 through the Waikato and Manawatū. The Harbour Bridge is a landmark on the northern motorway and the Sky Tower is visible from much of the central city approach.

From the South Island

Travellers from the South Island can fly into Auckland directly or take the Interislander or Bluebridge ferry from Picton to Wellington, then drive north. The Wellington to Auckland drive is approximately 7.5 to 8 hours. Many visitors travelling the full length of the country include a Taupo bungy stop en route — see the Taupo page for details.

Day Trips from Auckland

Day Trips from Auckland

Auckland is a great base for exploring the wider Northland and Waikato regions. A few favourites within easy reach:

Waiheke Island

A 35-minute ferry from the CBD, Waiheke is known for boutique wineries, olive groves and beautiful beaches. Hire a bike or take a wine tour, and time a visit for a long lunch at one of the island's renowned restaurants.

Coromandel Peninsula

Around 2 hours' drive southeast of Auckland, the Coromandel offers dramatic coastal scenery, native bush walks and the famous Cathedral Cove. Hot Water Beach - where you can dig your own thermal pool in the sand at low tide - is a perennial highlight.

Northland and the Bay of Islands

Head north on SH1 and you're in Northland within two hours. The Bay of Islands, around 3.5 hours from Auckland, is one of New Zealand's most beautiful coastal regions - sailing, dolphin watching and the historic town of Russell are the draws.

Hobbiton, Matamata

Around 2 hours south of Auckland near Matamata in the Waikato, the Hobbiton Movie Set is one of New Zealand's most visited attractions. Pre-booking is essential. Combine with a visit to Hamilton Gardens on the way back.

Raglan

New Zealand's most famous surf town sits around 1.5 hours southwest of Auckland. Even if you're not surfing, the black-sand beach, pohutukawa-lined harbour and relaxed café scene make it an easy and rewarding half-day escape.
