About the Business
Welcome to Trams at MOTAT and Zoo, located at 200 Meola Road in Auckland, New Zealand. As an establishment and point of interest, we offer an unforgettable experience for visitors of all ages.
One of the highlights of our institution is the MOTAT tram rides, which are completely free for you and your family to enjoy. These tram rides provide the best and most beautiful way to travel around the Te Wai Ōrea, Western Springs Precinct, allowing you to effortlessly transport yourself from one museum site to another and fully immerse yourself in the MOTAT experience.
To help you plan your visit, we have provided tram timetables below for normal departure times. Please note that these timetables may vary from time to time, so we recommend checking with the ticket counter for the most up-to-date information. Additionally, some of the tram stops are only available upon request.
At MOTAT, we are proud of our operational collection items, including the impressive Daniel Adamson & Co. Boiler powered Pumphouse. Our fleet of vintage trams is also a highlight, offering a nostalgic and charming way to explore our institution. Don't forget to visit our historic village as well, where you can step back in time and experience the rich heritage of New Zealand.
To ensure that our heritage items continue to operate in their best condition, we occasionally need to undertake general maintenance. Whenever possible, we schedule this maintenance outside of normal opening hours to minimize any disruption to your experience. We always strive to provide you with a seamless and enjoyable visit.
We are conveniently located at 805 Great North Road and 98 Motions Road in Western Springs, Auckland. Come and join us for a day filled with history, culture, and fun.

"Nice place for kids. Free tramp ride that's really good. Just need to buy MOTAT entry ticket."
"The station at one of the end-of-the-track for the tram ride between MOTAT 1 and MOTAT 2 sites. The tram also stops at the zoo. The tram drivers and tram conductors were always friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. Happily shared their knowledge about the tram itself, the tracks, and the history of Auckland trams. At lunch time, the trams were always really packed with passengers, mostly to or from the Zoo. Just have to remember that the last tram on the day will leave this station is at 4.15p at the latest; and often leave early if no one is waiting at the station."
"A bit of nostalgia.... Very nice experience"
"A great wee tram ride for an ages. The staff on board for us today were awesome. Really at the scene for our visit to Motat. The drivers kindly took the time to answer my questions about how the tram and track worked. Such an awesome experience and the kids loved it"
"It's a lovely tram . The conductor is very friendly and helpful . The tram goes to the zoo and the second section of motat and gets very exciting for Michael when one tran passes us when we're on one . At the moment the tram passes an area being dug out . Then it slows down to the second section ."
