Explore three floors of Māori, Pacific, natural history, and wartime exhibits at Auckland Museum, with flexible admission and optional tours.

“The museum was amazing however we had problem with ticketing. We had to wait for a long time to get our tickets - I would not describe this as 'skip the line'. When we finally made it to the counter, they couldn't find our booking/tickets and we had to wait for a long time again. At the end, the museum staff just gave up and let us in.”
