Auckland Hotel Shuttles

By far New Zealand’s largest city, Auckland is a beacon of the North Island that offers rare glimpses of white-sand beaches as well as volcanic lakes - the city is also known for its wide array of gourmet restaurants in upscale neighborhoods as well as casual Kiwi cafes sprawled across trendy urban strips. Unfortunately, Auckland is also known for not having any sort of reliable or efficient public transportation, save for a few bus and train routes - travelers can easily bypass this with a private vehicle option of their own, whether it be through the simplicity of small sedans and spacious SUVs, or a wide spectrum of professional meet-and-greet services ranging from the luxury of stretched limousines to the basic quietude of taxis.

One of the most endearing qualities of the city is its many diverse neighborhoods, something easy to utilize when booking rooms - if interested in Newmarket’s signature boutique shops and cafes, consider low-cost stays like Haka Hotel, or experience quiet convenience from the east side’s Parnell Road via hotspots like Quest Carlaw Park and Quality Hotel. Ritzy downtown stays also fill the neighboring Viaduct Basin and Queens Wharf neighborhoods, both of which offer glimmering harbour views from Hilton Auckland’s premiere location on Pier 1 as well as Grand Mercure Auckland’s high-rise perspective just outside Queen Elizabeth Square. And for those in search of one-of-a-kind stays, go with unique resorts such as The Esplanade Hotel historic 1900s backdrop in the small northern village of Devonport, as well as The Spencer’s sleek modern ambiance along Takapuna Byron Street.

From low urban dwellings to high windy peaks, deciding what angle of Auckland to witness is wholly up to the beholder. Go on a harbour tour by walking down Quay Street, home to a few piers filled with attractions ranging from the nautical tours of Auckland Whale & Dolphin Safari to the old ship replicas at New Zealand Maritime Museum. Continue west toward the Wynyard Quarter for an array of outdoor markets and concerts surrounding Silo Park, afterward enjoying vivid views of the water from the historic Big Wheel landmark. Another great alternative is escaping the city altogether for some quiet time on the far north end, uncovering rural treasures from the rarely traversed Eskdale Reserve for the sole purpose of being the first human step in centuries. For a blend of urban and nature, head to the Auckland Domain east of downtown, home to sweeping glimpses of everything from a lush volcanic crater as well as a hilltop cafe perfect for sunset chats.
