Good museum visits fill up over a New Zealand summer and the best of them are gone by October. The 4 that stand out are below, with current prices and what makes each one different.
Auckland War Memorial Museum ticket, skip the line and explore three floors of Māori, Pacific and war stories for $16.
“lots of exhibits. factual.imagine section excellent. liked idea of children's imaginary area”
Stroll Matakana’s Sculptureum with 3 sculpture gardens and 6 art galleries, quirky sculptures, glass art, and optional wine tasting.
“The artwork and glass art inside the building is fabulous. The gardens and the sculptures are beautiful. The driftwood sculptures of the horses and the whale are amazing. The bronze sculptures were just lovely. I loved the boy pushing the girl on the swing. The sculpture of the boy holding the dolphin is apparently an early work by Leonardo Da Vinci and is quite stunning.”
Skip the line at Auckland War Memorial Museum with general admission to three floors of Māori and Pacific culture, plus military history.
“seeing the Maori dancing , Seeing the culture of their people was wonderful. I would definitely recommend it to anybody that is going to visit New Zealand not to miss this.”
Skip the queue at Te Papa, Wellington. 48-hour international admission to Māori taonga, natural history, art, and the Gallipoli exhibit.
