Sky Tower
4.0/5
Going up the skytower is a must-do; I regretted not doing it the previous time I was in Auckland.
It is pricey, but it's worthwile if you have dinner in the revolving restaurant (which has amazing food and I rate a 10/10) as it gets you up the skytower for free.

Museum of New Zealand
5.0/5
Amazing museum as always, I go here every time I visit Wellington.
If you choose to go on one of the rides (especially the high ride) be prepared for a very bumpy ride.

Wellington Cable Car
3.5/5
This is more a method of transport up the hill for the locals that live up the hill or go to the university than it is a tour activity.
The views from the top are very nice and offer a great photo opportunity, and it certainly beats walking up the hill. The cable car is a nice thing to do in combination with a walk through the botanical gardens, which are up the top. Not bad for pricing either, especially with student ID.

Fullers Auckland
3.5/5
We did the Waiheke Island guided bus tour.
The actual bus tour was 1 1/2 hours and it was very informative. The bus driver was very friendly. The only negative is that we didn't have a chance to hop out of the bus to take photos of the amazing views throughout the tour: we were expected to take them out of the windows of the bus (which were too wet to take decent photos). It was great that we could use the buses and explore the Island after the tour.

Skydive Kaikoura
5.0/5
Skydiving in Kaikoura was such a thrilling experience that words cannot describe.
I recommed that everyone try it for themselves! The views of Kaikoura are amazing, all the way from the snow-capped mountains down to the ocean...being up there feels like being on top of the world! All the staff at skydive Kaikoura are very professional as well as a lot of fun, which adds to the exitement of the jump. It was my first time skydiving so I was very nervous but it was an awesome experience that I definitely want to do again and again. I recommend you buy the video which is very well done, a reasonable price, and a pleasure to watch many times and show to your friends.
Hi Miranda, The views are pretty spectacular, we have to agree. We are happy you had fun and enjoyed your first skydiving experience. Henk & Sarah
