How to Get Here

Finding your way to Auckland Zoo

Auckland Zoo is located just west of downtown Auckland, next to the beautiful Western Springs Reserve, along with the Museum of Transport and Technology (MOTAT). Auckland's first electric tram, Number 11, provides a link between both attractions.

Auckland Zoo is well signposted both east and west bound on the Northwestern motorway.
