Best places: Zoos & Aquariums in North Shore, New Zealand

👍👍 Pet Direct has a nice range of pet products, good prices and fast postage. I found it extremely hard to find Whiskas cat biscuits during the pandemic, so I was pleased when I found them on the Pet Direct website. I also found the Royal Canin puppy milk powder was cheaper than any other online store....

😠 Be aware of buying from this company. Workers are trained to obey the boss's law rather than New Zealand consumer guarantee law. Once you make the payment there is no way you get your money back if the item is later found to be faulty. The indian manager there refused to return the faulty MacBook ev...

Museum & war memorial in a neoclassical building with a permanent collection & temporary exhibits.

Established city park containing museums, memorials & the entire blast crater of Pukekawa volcano.

😠 Our kids loved this but I have to rate this activity with one star, due to our experience as the carers. The kids (13 and 14) were not allowed to climb without supervisors. Either we had to climb with them or stand under them whilst they climbed. We arrived at 1 and they wanted to complete their cou...

Bayside sanctuary with a boat ramp, 3 beaches & campgrounds, plus paddocks with farm animals.

Camping & hiking are popular at this farm park with wildlife, pastured animals & lava flows.

👍👍 The entrance give you the feel of playing omni VR. Absolutely had fun time. The staffs are cool and welcoming. We were couple of minutes late but they gave the best customer service for us. If you want to try something different indoor in Auckland highly recommended. The kids will also enjoy their t...

👍👍 Stunning rose garden. Bring a picnic blanket. The palm tree section is too close to the motorway but otherwise a very serene botanical gardens! Definitely explore the African section too, before you wander off too far.

Hilly park overlooking the gulf, with a beach, campground, farm animals & pa (Maori earthworks).

Waterside park offering swimming beaches, fishing spots, bike trails, farm animals & campgrounds.

👍👍 A great destination to visit. We followed the red trail (there are few colour coded trails) which had lots of good scenic spots, with farm lands, beach and forest. It's not a hard trail, 50:50 hill to flat land ratio I would say. There are trail markers and maps, so it is easy to find your way. We e...

👍👍 Great fun for a team day out. Not too extreme on the rafting, but a good rush nonetheless, and lots of laughs! Water is beautiful and clean, guides were professional and competent. We had a great time.

👍 We went on weekdays morning it was good since it is not to crowded its like we own the place 🤣. Way back home I normally do wall climbing but I could say bouldering is more challenging and fun than wall climbing. So I would definetely be back to conquer some of the wall 🤣. The place was clean and...

Museum exploring the country's seafaring history through exhibits & sailing trips on replica ships.

👍👍 We have a 10 year old Husky, who suffers from back issues (bridging in her spine); she was curious about the bed at first as it's a lot bigger than her previous one.. but absolutely adores it now - she has been sleeping like a log for the past week! Couldn't be happier with our choice - thank you Br...

Camping & kayaking at beaches, plus hill walks over pastures & around a former Maori settlement.

👍👍 A lovely park with pond, close to Motat, Auckland Zoo, and the Western Springs Stadium. Just make sure that you aren't wandering around after sunset; as there are plenty of dodgy people lurking around once it gets dark. You can find plenty of swans, ducks and pokeko. You will also find some chickens...

👍👍 I love this place. Charming views, clean water, clean toilets, and good car park. Dogs are not allowed
