We
recently
used
Auckland
Explorer
Bus
by
purchasing
their
24
hour
pass.
The
experience
did
not
start
off
on
the
right
foot,
given
the
third
party
agent
who
sold
us
the
ticket
refused
us
a
refund
after
we
waited
for
the
bus
for
almost
90
minutes
in
the
rain.
We
were
told
the
bus
comes
every
30-40
minutes,
this
day
they
ran
into
some
road
construction
but
we
only
later
found
that
out.
There
was
a
'guide'
at
the
main
stop
but
she
was
unable
to
provide
us
with
any
tangible
update,
except
for
repeating
that
eventually
the
bus
would
arrive.
The
places
the
bus
visits
are
definitely
not
walkable
if
you
are
staying
downtown,
so
in
that
sense,
the
bus
was
necessary
to
see
the
important
sights
in
Auckland.
Having
said
that,
the
tickets
themselves
were
very
expensive
(total:
approx.
$120
for
2
people)
and
we
would
have
saved
a
lot
of
time,
effort
and
money
had
we
simply
taken
public
transit.
Ultimately,
it
worked
out
fine,
but
overall
a
pretty
disappointing
experience-
especially
given
the
high
cost.
