I catch this bus when I have time because believe it or not the bus service can actually delay you. Those damned traffic lights that always favour the passengers cause the bus to travel slow. But if you have time and aren't in a hurry then take the bus. It travels from Britomart up Queen Street to Kroad then another travels from Wynard Quarter to Britomart up Queen Street to K Road.

It leaves from the Hobsonville Point wharf and stops at Beachhaven, Birkenhead and finishes at downtown Auckland. You can take in all the beauty of the Auckland Harbour and you'll get a prime view of the Harbour Bridge as the ferry actually travels underneath it. The price is a little steep but I just count is as being part of helping my mental health haha. Starting and ending the day out on the water does wonders for your stress levels. There's nothing like salty wind blowing in your hair to make you remember what life is all about. And this ferry helps you remember it daily. And if you use your hop card you can get a cheaper fare, which helps a lot.

This transit park n ride terminal is nice, but that's about it. The buses run on time, so I didn't spend too much time here. The bus tickets are automated via kiosk, which are available in the Maori language. There are helpful signs to let you know which bus stops where. They could've used some public art up in here. It's kinda plain looking. There was an inside area where you could get out of the wind or rain, but not much to this place. The bus drivers were friendly, and I managed to get where I wanted to go.

It's always packed with cars so you do have to get there early if you want a park. Otherwise you might find yourself walking a bit up the hill to the bus. There are constantly buses arriving so no matter what time you turn up there will usually be a bus not too far off. There's also a great place to wait if you do need it. It's fully covered so is great in the winter months or those rainy summer days that too often frequent our city. Because the bus just hops on the bus lane on the motorway and skips all the traffic. And because you don't need to drive you can read, listen to music, or play games while you're driven there. Brilliant.

This is the the public transport hub in the central business district. It opened in 2003 but was a post office from 1911.

It's right across the street from the Ferry Landing, and there's lots of stores, restaurants, gift shops and things to see and do around here. When I went, the place was swarming with scooters! They were everywhere. Plus, the place was heavily under construction, with big scaffolding over the facade, and shipping containers set up to walk through so nothing falls on pedestrians. The exterior is nice looking, and everyone seems to know where this place is. They have kiosks set up to check your bus tickets without having to deal with a clerk.

Stopped at almost all of the stops along the Red Route. Blue Route was less interesting to us. Stop 1- The heart of the city is at the Queens Wharf and the Central Business District. Loved the historic buildings, shops and restaurants. Saw the International Buskers Festival. Watched the boats come into harbor. Stop 2- The Sky Tower is pricy, but gives a great view of the city. A short uphill climb from our hotel apartment. Stop 3- The Art Museum and Albert Park. The Guo Pei exhibit was so interesting. A very eclectic museum. Stop 5- The Auckland War Memorial Museum and the switch to the blue line or red line depending on which way you came. Easy to walk from this stop to the Winter Garden. Stop 6- The Holy Trinity Cathedral. Closed on Auckland Day. Easy to walk from here to Parnell Village and then stop #7. Stop 7- Pick up a lamb or meat pie on the way to this stop. Stop 8- Bastion Point has stunning views of Auckland. The memorial is beautiful as well. Stop 9- The aquarium, because who doesn't love penguins? Happy Feet! Stop 10 - The Winter Garden has the most beautiful flowers in the glass greenhouses. The fernery is interesting, too. Pricy, but we got a great taste of Auckland.

After living in Auckland for 8 years one would think I would know where Devenport was. I remember calling nt boyfriend saying oh baby we are going to Devenport. He started laughing and told me that his house was only a few minutes drive from Devenport. I didn't know that one could drive there. I was so embrassed as we had just started dating, now I look back and laugh at myself. The day was a bit windy but we had so much fun on the ferry. Walking on Tongariro and taking pictures was the highlight. This is a trip that those that want to explore Auckland should make.

That means a bunch of tourist-oriented routes (Tiritiri Matangi Island, Rotoroa Island, Motiuhe Island, Coromandel), and a couple of commuter routes too (Beachhaven, Hobsonville). Some of these are truly wonderful destinations, so it's great to have a second ferry operator providing access to them. Tiritiri Matangi is probably the best known, and makes for a great day trip or overnighter - it's a bird sanctuary island with great nature walks, panoramic vistas and beaches. The 360 vessels are generally smaller than the Fullers boats so you need to book for some destinations, but they're fast and comfortable and the service is a bit more personal so that's nice.

When at the airport, you can purchase tickets by: you can use a NZ card (I'm assuming) at the iSite location, as long as no signature is needed (would not allow me to use my USA debit card). Or you can go outside and before the queue the ticket booth is attached. Easy transaction and the operator ensured I knew where I was going and gave me a map. On board has decent WiFi and comfortable seats. One issue I had, and it's for all of NZ transit, is that they don't announce stops. So I'd recommend talking with the bus driver or familiarizing yourself with the city location so you know when to press "stop" to request getting off the bus. I download maps and save for offline usage and pin point the stop I wanted so I could ensure I didn't miss it. Did not see anyone purchase on board, not sure how it works. I recommend getting tickets for the operator booth and getting a return ticket to save yourself the hassle of having to pay on board (remember, NZ is big on card usage, so it's okay to carry minimal cash for safety).
