Would definitely recommend this place as a good overview of the greater Auckland area. Centrally located and easily reached by foot or bus if you're staying further way. There are great views of many of the volcanic cones in the area... including great views of Devonport and Rangitoto behind it. Would definitely recommend springing for the extra $3 NZD to... more

It took me a week to pluck up th ecourage to do the SKY JUMP - yes - I Googled all possible combinations of potential accidents, law suites etc - nothing ! SO off we went and did the jump. I had been to the Sky Tower in Las Vegas and in Toronto - Vegas is "cool" at night -... more

My wife and I had dinner here the first night we got in from L.A. Spectaular views and amazing food. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was relaxing. A must for those looking for a romantic dinner that won't cost you an arm and a leg. more

Went for the Sky Jump off Sky Tower in Auckland. What a fun experience! It was quite an experience to jump off a 60 storey building and man was the view awesome. On a clear day you can see very very far and is a great 360 degree view of Auckland. Sky Jump was a bit expensive for such a... more

Don't recall exact numbers, so going to round. However, you should get an idea of your options. Went to get info on Sky Tower to check out costs, etc. Believe it was going to be around $50 for two to go to the top and have a look. There was a slighly higher charge if you wanted to go to... more

Inside, at the bottom, there is the souvenir shop, on the 1st floor where you enter this thing, is a little coffee shop & some escalators that will take you up to the casino & a few places to eat & drink. But... more

My fiancee and I visited the Skytower yesterday. We intended to go up to the observation deck and just view the city (which would have cost NZ$20 each) but we discovered that if we booked a meal in one of the top restaurants the $20 fee does not have to be paid (provided you spend at least $25 in the... more
