  • 4.5/5

    Magnificent multi subject museum in a magnificent building.

    Beautiful Maori artefacts, great natural history and useful information on the military history of New Zealand.

    I loved the natural history portion, particularly the exhibits on New Zealand's birds.

    Price was a little steep at $25 for foreigners.

    Very interesting exhibit on Maori and Pacific Island culture.

    Only improvement would be less resource devoted to toys from the 1980s - I do not need a museum for that.

    $25 entrance fee is quite expensive, if you can choose to go to Te Papa in Wellington, which is a lot better.

    OK activity for a rainy day in Auckland. It is not very interesting.

    A positive was the Maori dancing. A negative that it is expensive, we found the same exhibits in Wellington for free.

    The 75 year Air New Zealand special exhibition is very good.

    Sadly, the rest is not that good, and it costs money to enter for non-Aucklanders.
