Spend Christmas & New Years with us in Auckland | New Zealand
Welcome back to our Sixth series! For Episode 19 we are bringing you along to spend Christmas and New Years Eve in Auckland, New Zealand!
We got up to so many amazing things throughout November, December and January. There are soo many things to do in Auckland for Christmas and New Years. All of which are linked below.
Normally back in the UK we fill December with Christmas Markets, meals and events. We managed to keep a lot of our traditions on the other side of the world!
For New Years we wanted to make sure that we saw the fireworks at the Sky Tower in the CBD. We headed to Karanga Plaza to enjoy the food markets, live entertainment and a great view of the Sky Tower. We didn't realise we would be here the whole night but it was such a great atmosphere and view that we didn't feel the need to try anywhere else.
We had an amazing view from the waters edge at the newly built pool at the Tidal Steps. We did secure our spot pretty early on but we were surprised that others hadn't done the same.
We thoroughly enjoyed Christmas and New Years in New Zealand. Let us know if you have any recommendations!

Welcome back to our Sixth series! For Episode 18 we are going to show you how to spend Christmas in Auckland, New Zealand! We spent Christmas in New Zealand for the first time and experienced what it's like to have a summery Christmas. It's not something we are used to as our home traditions normally include hot chocolate, cosying up by the fire and winter meals. So we decided to put together a...

Sydney is lovely to visit but soooo expensive to live there :(:(:(
Great video. Thanks
@@russellthomson5571 Thank you, Glad you liked it ~G
What a horrible couple. Hope they turn around and go home.
Thanks for sharing your experience! Would you be able to use timestamps in your future videos? :)
@@AliMartinez-uj8oe yes absolutely! Great idea ~ B
Definitely these are the best points
@@ArifDiaries Yes! 🙌🏼 ~ B
Beautiful houses ❤
There's some gorgeous properties in Auckland, it definitely has it's own style! ~ B
Good choices but you wouldn’t get me in that boat! I did Sydney seaplanes, so know that a ‘Birds Eye view’ of Sydney is amazing, so not surprised your No 1 was the helicopter. Surprised bridge climb wasn’t in your list but maybe when you did the list you had t done the climb.
@@happyplace444 thank you. Bet that was an incredible experience. Yeah unfortunately we hadn’t done it by the time we did this vlog! ~G
Having just found your TH-cam channel, I’ve randomly been watching your videos in Australia. It makes sense to scroll back and watch from the start, although your adventure started two years ago, I’m sure it will be good to follow you and watch the videos. The loud music makes it difficult to hear you talk, but it looks like you gave up your home, packed your bags and set off with your one year working visa.
Glad you like them. Thanks, we appreciate the feedback, we will work on it on future vlogs! ~G
Thank you for showing us Christmas in Sydney. Where in Sydney did you live? The flat looks nice, a pool, a garden, and trees.
You're welcome. Around Christmas we stayed in an Airbnb in East Killara. It was a unique experience being in a pool in the sun on boxing day being from England 😂~G
I don’t snorkel or dive so It was nice to see the underwater footage.
Glad you could experience it ~G
This video was posted a year ago so you’ve probably had another anniversary. Belated best wishes.
Thank you ~G
Wow, to see Sydney from the air is amazing. It also shows how big Sydney is, with so many lovely places.
Pleased you did the bridge climb, it’s an amazing experience. they put me at the front as I was so scared! Done the pylon twice, you can see so much, in your own time and can take photos. So pleased you did that as well.
Yeah we loved it too. Well done for overcoming your fear. We were at the back as we wanted to enjoy the view of the Opera House while people were getting their photos. Yeah the Pylon offers a great view of the Bridge but the climb up to it is tough🤣 ~G
Beautiful blue mountains. I couldn’t do the trails and hiking so was nice to see what I missed.
@@happyplace444 They are stunning aren’t they? Oh no that’s a shame. Did you manage to check out the viewpoints? ~G
@@beckiandgeorge yes, I’ve been there twice, once on a coach tour and once by train. Both times just a day trip but did get to viewpoints, cable car etc.
@@happyplace444 That's great. Unfortunately we didn't do the cable car but would love to go back and experience it. Did you enjoy the cable car? ~G
Hey - loved the video. We're travelling to Bowness, Brokhole and Ambleside. Did you take the boat from Bowness pier or Ambleside pier? Heard the route from Bowness to Ambleside is the most scenic on the red route cruise.
@@en2304 hey, thank you so much. We are glad you loved it! We took the boat from Bowness Pier. We thought the views were pretty stunning heading towards Ambleside. What time of year are you heading there? ~G
Thanks for taking us to vivid Sydney, the botanical gardens looked amazing. Your VTs are very watchable, as the production is good. Some VTs on you tube are impossible to watch as they move the camera too fast, too slow, are all over the places with bad sound and content but you do well.
You're most welcome. They were beautifully done. Have you ever visited Sydney? Thank you that means a lot, we really try to make our vlogs easy to watch and smooth transitionally. 👍~G
@@beckiandgeorge yes, I’ve been to Sydney 5 times, I have a friend who lives on the Gold Coast, also my son lived in Sydney for a year.
@@happyplace444Wow sounds like you know it very well then. Have you managed to go to Vivid Sydney during one of your trips? ~G
@@beckiandgeorge yes, in 2015. I had heard about it and pleased I got to see it, but I didn’t like the crowds!
@@happyplace444 Glad you got to experience it. Yeah the crowds can get large for a lot of the events. ~G
By chance I found this video, and I enjoyed it. However, Personally I prefer the sounds of the city and the environment rather than music especially this type of music which you tubers seem to like using. Thank you for taking us with you on your travels. It looks like you had a great time. I am going to watch your other videos, I love Australia and see you’ve also been to NZ, somewhere, sadly, I didn’t get too, so look forward to that.
@@happyplace444 thank you that’s so kind! We definitely want to use the natural sounds more, like the sounds of the city. Sometimes we do have sounds that you would not enjoy 😂 but we will definitely try to include the good stuff more! We’ve been very fortunate that we’ve been able to see Aus and NZ so will have lots more to share! ~ B
Hey,, great couple.. I'm from Pakistan plz help me to get New Zealand visa
Hi, the best way to find visa information is through the New Zealand Immigration Website: www.immigration.govt.nz . They have all the information you need! ~ B
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂🎁🎈🎊🎉
Thank you!! ~G
West Auckland is another beautiful area, huge development there!!
@@Shenzenxo amazing! We will definitely be exploring. Let us know if you have any suggestions! ~ B
I have been there before on a holiday.
@@TaiRogers oh amazing! What did you think of it? ~ B
Beautiful couple ❤,I'm from Pakistan and looking to be here in New Zealand, it's a dream since my childhood because of cricket I love that game. 1992when I was 10years old...... Please help me to get visa and search my partner 😢.. Like both of you
That's amazing! New Zealand is a beautiful country, it's definitely worth coming if you can. For visa's have a look at the immigration New Zealand website, you can find the best visa for you. Good luck, we wish you all the best! ~ B
You did not even finish the walk around to Camp Cove! 15 minutes further around the coast to the best beach on the harbour. So disappointing 😕
Oh no! We didn’t realise it carried on! We’ll have to visit again. Although this was a very hot day so we were happy to stop for a break! 😂 ~ B
Any blacks in New Zealand or just a White kinda thing
Wow 😮 Pretending this isn’t an actual comment.
Omg the last property was diabolical, how embarrassing for the owner, not even dam sheets on the beds 😭😭
It was definitely an experience! 😅 ~ B
you need to be nice everyone 😢
Thanks guys, i am a sucker for wild life, and loved this. Happy Birthday Mme B x
Thank you so much! We are as well, we couldn't walk away from the tigers! ~ B
Your content has made a real impact on me.
All the best..
@@pradeepdasgupta6469 thank you! ~ B
Maybe better to start off with footage of the subject first rather than the speech .. but when it did come , it was pretty good
Thanks for the feedback ♥ ~ B
@@beckiandgeorge Oooh no ..now I feel bad , but thanks for not giving me a spray , because hey what do i know .. was just a thought. 👊
WOW you’re so lucky to be leaving Christchurch
Wait, why lucky? ~ B
I work pushing one of those river boats. If I knew you were coming through I would have given you a free ride! Glad you enjoyed the city. Sumner social is also one of my favorites.
Jealous of your job! That's so kind of you!! Still a couple of things to ticket off the travel bucket list there but we absolutely loved it! ~ B
Awesome video. I live in Christchurch and I enjoyed watching. Hope you enjoyed your visit to the area
Thank you so much! Yes we absolutely love Christchurch, a very special place ~ B
Looks like the northland just no sun 😅
Looks like we've bought the UK weather with us! 😂 ~ B
Cool!
It's worth the trip! ~ B
I’ve been here. It’s really good fun and lovely food
@@Thefunguy_18 yes definitely! Such a good activity to do ~ B
"lovely view of the river"? In Bowness-on-Windermere? What river would that be?
There was a lovely little brook/stream next to the bnb! We had a nice view of it whilst having breakfast ~ B
Has to be New Zealand I know my own country
You know it well, it is! ~ B
This is the best!
@@BamberBains we will never get tired of seeing the mountains covered in snow ~ B
Enjoyed, excellent ,goodnight!
Thank you! ~ B
you could let fireworks osunds unluck it was cutted
I know it is a shame. Because there was music played at the event we couldn't leave the natural sound on due to the music rights ~ B
mp3 klas
Happy Travels
Thank you! ~ B
I wish you lots of good luck -Cheers
Thank you! ~ B
Nothing like the sound of the sea, & you have the added clacking of the stones. Beautiful! Big hello from Ireland
Such a relaxing sound! Hello hello 👋 ~ B
