Sky Tower
The Sky Tower undoubtedly offers the best views across the city and if you want an adrenalin fix, you can sky-walk or bungee off the side. Sky Tower - SkyCity Auckland
Also, there’s Metita, a restaurant for special occasions, with 360 degree views.
Viaduct Harbour
The Viaduct Harbour refers to the waterfront marina in the heart of the city, a hub of restaurants, yachts and ferries. You can buy an ice cream and wander about to look at the boats, walk across the bridge to the Wynyard quarter and Auckland’s Fish Market, enjoy a delicious meal, or board a ferry to a multitude of destinations in the Hauraki Gulf Viaduct Harbour
Civic Theatre
The Civic, built in 1929, is one of the few remaining atmospheric theatres in the world specifically designed as a 'movie palace'. It is truly beautiful inside and these days it hosts a variety of shows and performances. They occasionally offer 'behind the scenes tours' as well. The Civic | Te Civic | Auckland Live
