Auckland is New Zealand’s largest city with a population of 1.5 million people. It is known as the ‘City of Sails’. The highlights of our first day were the walk to the summit of Mt Eden for the 360° stunning views over the city and harbor and the Sky Tower, the tallest tower in the Southern Hemisphere, offering breath-taking views for 50+ km in every direction. And no, not one brave soul amongst us to take the ultimate leap of faith and jump from the platform 192m above ground.
