Question:

Hi everybody!!! At least I’ve fixed dates (03 OCT till 22 OCT) of our trip to NZ!!! Great feeling… We have a small question. We will arrive to AKL early morning, after 35 hours flight (Warsaw-Frankfurt-Los Angeles-Auckland). So, we are looking for a nice camping place (car + 2 person + tent) for one day rest. Precisely, the cheapest possibility will be the best . Any advice will be kindly aprecciated. Greetings from Poland Konrad and Monika

Hello Konrad- Although there are none in central Auckland, you might want to check out the following URL: http://www.holidayparks.co.nz/index.html However, after such a long flight, I would recommend a night in a bed, after a hot shower. The backpacker/hostel facilities in New Zealand are very nice, and not like the ones in Europe. There are no "duties" and you can come and go when you want. Most of them have some private rooms with two beds – therefore no dorm sharing. I can recommend the YHA in Auckland. I notice there are two downtown now. They are only a couple of blocks apart. You can get a room with a double bed or two twin beds for $44nz (for two people). Check out the YHA website at: http://www.yha.org.nz/ BTW, there is another group of such facilities you might become aware of as well. You might want to get in out of the rain, or have a place to shower and do laundry, while traveling around. http://www.backpack.co.nz/index.html Good luck Chuck

While there are camping grounds near/in Auckland, October is not a good time to be in a tent. I suggest a Backpackers Hostel which will cost little extra, give a warm.dry bed and somewhere safe for your possessions. Neil
