Manukau
Arriving in Auckland when the cricket is on meant accommodation availability was scarce, resulting in staying in the town of Mangere. Amazing little place with a stunning walk up Mt Mangere looking out over Auckland.

Mangere

Mangere is known for its abundant dining options, and you can plan a trip to Villa Maria Auckland Winery and Otuataua Stonefields while you're in town.

Baaaaaa you'll meet lots of friendly animals at this city farm ! Great for kids to experience farm life.
