Mount Eden, Auckland

We liked Mt. Eden because it is well looked after and the tourists can excess it fairly easily. It shows great views of Auckland. We did have a little trouble finding it but once there it was worth the effort. We hired a car to travel New Zealand as we have done a tour before but found we didn't see as much as we would have if we had travelled by ourselves. We don't always stop for long morning teas or buffet lunches. We buy our food on the move so we fit more things in. New Zealand is fairly easy to get around even though we found the places aren't always well signed, especially Auckland. New Zealand is still a very cheap place to visit as far as plane fares from Australia and it doesn't take long to get there, which is fantastic. It is a wonderful place, full of great places to see and friendly people. We would recommmend it to any one.
