More food and wine in the Matakana region, trekking through the Waitakere Ranges Regional Park... Auckland is extraordinary by anyone's standards.
It's almost impossible NOT to want to visit the marvellous Sky Tower, the highest in the Southern Hemisphere, providing a view out to 80 km. You can even enjoy food with a view at the Orbit revolving restaurant.
For families, definite must-visits include the Auckland Regional Botanical Gardens in Manurewa, the Auckland Zoo in Western Springs, the New Zealand National Maritime Museum in Viaduct Harbor, the Auckland War Memorial Museum in Parnell and the Kelly Tarlton's on Tamaki Drive which has attractions within such as Underwater World and Antarctic Encounter.

One of the natural beauties of Auckland is the Waitakere Ranges, which offer a bounty of everything nature has to provide and are also a hub of sporting action. For people who like walking or trekking tours, there's a great one through the One Tree Hill, which takes people through volcanic cones.
The volcanic island of Rangitoto is also a must see. You could try to scale the highest peak here from where you get a great panoramic view of the entire area, or you can go swimming and check out the beautiful coral.
