Auckland, New Zealand, put under the 'weirdness' microscope.,
By Paul Lawrence "'EJL'" (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lonely Planet Six Degrees Series 2: Auckland (DVD)
As part of the 6ix Degrees Lonely Planet city guide series this 47 minute travelogue caught my eye due to having been to New Zealand and being blown away by the physical beauty of the place. Having been in Auckland all too briefly I thought this would be a good way of reminiscing and also getting ideas for what I'd missed.
As per the rest of the series the idea here is that starting with a single point of contact the host gets around to all sorts of quirky 'insider only' adventures. The trick here is that Auckland, while a nice enough city and a gateway to many of the delights of the North Island of NZ, struggles to come up with enough quirky aspects of interest to flesh out even this brief DVD. It's actually the sort of city that might have fared better with a more traditional approach taking in the proximity of the apparently gorgeous Bay of Island (I say apparently as I've not been there myself), the wine growing regions to the south and the awesome natural attractions that are within a days drive of the city such as Rotorua and it's geysers. Normally I love any sort of travelogue style show and while off beat even this series often gives me inspiration to travel to different places, but I feel this DVD doesn't really do justice to a beautiful city nestled in a beautiful country. Thus - three stars only for this one.
