Three perfect days in Auckland Central

The waterfront, the shops and the food. A simple plan for making the most of the city centre.

Three perfect days in Auckland Central

Auckland Central packs a lot into a small footprint, which is exactly why it is such an easy base. Stay central and you can walk most of it.

Day one: the waterfront

Start at the water. The Viaduct and Wynyard Quarter are made for a slow morning, with harbour views, coffee and boats coming and going. Walk the waterfront and let the day unfold.

Day two: shops and streets

Queen Street and the surrounding lanes are where the city shops and eats. Duck into the side streets for the good stuff, then find a rooftop for a late afternoon drink.

Day three: culture and views

Make time for a gallery and a lookout. The city rewards a bit of height, so find a vantage point and take in the harbour and the islands beyond.
