Guidebook for Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland) - City of Sails
Getting Around
We recommend public transport for visiting most of Auckland, especially the city centre. It is four minutes from our house and one section to Britomart Station, the central city and ferry terminal.
Also a very simple and cheap trip to and from the airport. Many buses also leave from around the Newmarket area.
