NEW ZEALAND / AUCKLAND  Destination
Auckland:Auckland is New Zealand's biggest city. Wherever you stay in Auckland, you're never far from breathtaking scenery, beautiful beaches, invigorating walks, idyllic holiday islands, outstanding food and wine, great shopping and exciting nightlife. Auckland's waterside location has fostered the locals' love affair with the sea, earning this place the nickname "City of Sails".  It sprawls over a narrow isthmus between the sparkling waters of the Waitemata and Manukau Harbours. A cloak of rainforest covers the surrounding hills, dozens of dormant volcanic cones dot the landscape and enchanting holiday islands are scattered throughout the vast Hauraki Gulf. Two of the best island getaways are Waiheke Island and Great Barrier Island.  Auckland's
heart beats to a Polynesian rhythm, its people a melting pot of
European, South Pacific and Asian cultures and a strong indigenous
Maori heritage. This diversity brings with it an abundance of unique
dining and shopping experiences.A temperate climate, easy access to the coast and variety of activities earn the city consistent top five rankings in international lifestyle surveys.
