About Cambridge
Cambridge is close to some of New Zealand's major international attractions like Hobbiton, Waitomo Caves, Hamilton Gardens and Tauranga. Yet with plenty of unique local attractions, events and dining options - and a friendly, relaxed town ambience - you may not want to leave! It is approx. 1h40min from Auckland International Airport or 20min Hamilton Airport. If you are traveling to Hamilton airport with bikes and additional luggage we strongly recommend you contact your airline and advise them as there is limited space on the planes and this could result in a delay in your equipment arriving if plans are not made.
