One useful route is the Green Link bus that routes around the attractions of the inner city - taking about an hour to complete a whole circuit.
The main bus terminal is located at Britomart, on Quay Street.
You enter the bus at the front and pay the driver. You leave the bus at the back.
Generally buses stop running around 11:30pm (Mon - Sat), and 8pm on Sunday.
