The first thing that strikes you about Auckland, New Zealand, if you look out to the water, is the number of sailboats and yachts full-blown in the wind or at rest in a marina . Auckland is known as the City of Sails.
For many visiting New Zealand, Auckland is the country’s gateway. In fact, the majority of international flights originating in Europe and North America will have Auckland as its destination.
Accommodation in Auckland ranges from five-star hotels and motels to budget hostels and other accommodation venues.
Generally you’ll find Auckland hotels right in the city centre, which is convenient if you’re only staying a night or two and wish to do some exploration of the city on foot or by public transport.
Motels would more generally be found at the city outskirts and would have better parking facilities for your car if you have rented one.
An alternative to impersonal hotel and motel accommodation are bed and breakfasts which are usually part of a private home and has the amenities of home.Wellington is first of all the capital of New Zealand and the cultural, commercial, cosmopolitan centre of the country. In population, it is New Zealand’s second largest city.
One possible reason why Wellington is not a primary New Zealand destination to many is that, aside from Air New Zealand and Qantas, most international airlines do not land at Wellington.
