We did the museum secret tour. Although it’s quite pricey, it was worth it for the novelty factor. So much stuff that will never see the light of day. Full review by LennyLH

You can use almost any bill with an address to prove residency but you need photo id to prove it is yours. It would be better apply for a "My Museum" card at the desk which will then allow entrance without the other paperwork. I found the Staff at the entrance were incredible patient and flexible when dealing with our multitude of questions.
I plan to be in Auckland for 3 full days and I believe I will go to the Auckland Musuem on Oct 27 or 28, 2018. I am wondering if I need to get tickets to the Maori performance in advance or the day I go to the musuem. I plan to be at the museum first thing in the morning around 10am when it opens. Any advice or opinion would be welcomed. Thanks.

20 mins up hill. There is a free red bus that goes from Queen St (Auckland's main st) or Britomart terminus just 100m or so from cruise terminals. Alternatively you could take the Link bus for a couple of bucks. The free red bus or the link bus take you to all the main city sites and cruise ships dock right downtown so don't bother with expensive shore excursions. Locals are friendly and will be happy to point you in the right direction. Viaduct Harbour is also a short walk from the docks. you can see the old steam tug William c daldy there. ask for a look around. still coal fired and operational. :)
