Brought an American friend living in Auckland to visit the tower after we had done the same in early Match with an overseas friend. In both occasions, we had wonderful views of Auckland from the tower. The various parts of Auckland are well marked, so that you know what you are looking at and we were delighted to recognise some well known icons. The highlight of the visit was seeing a bungy jumper launch from the top of the tower and while none of us were keen to try it, we lived the moment vicariously. We have previously been tothe restaurant at the top, but did not do so on this occasion, although I do believe that for a minimum spend, one can visit both the restaurant and the tower, at no extra cost. It is worth once you have tried walking in the glass panels many feet above the ground (!) and orientated yourself as to where everything is, going up in the lift to the top floor, as views are better for photos.
