Day 3-4: For more unique urban adventures, head south to the national capital, Wellington. A little over an hour away by plane, this compact city is the political and cultural hub of the country. Pay a visit to Parliament House to learn all about the region’s history and parliamentary processes.

Day 5-7: You can’t spend time in New Zealand without exploring the beautiful South Island as well. For the ultimate scenic day trip, grab the keys to a rental car and make your way from Wellington to Christchurch.

Top Vacation Destinations in New Zealand

Immerse yourself in culture on a Auckland vacation

Auckland is one of the most culturally rich destinations in all of New Zealand. You'll find a multicultural hub of various people working together, offering diverse cuisine and art you can enjoy. Musical performances are quite common here in public spaces like parks and markets rather than just restricted to concert venues, though there are plenty of staged live performances as well.

Find adventure with Queenstown vacation packages

When you visit Queenstown in New Zealand, you'll find yourself in the adventure capital of the world. Several unforgettable thrilling activities are available here. You can experience white water rafting, luge, ziplining, and skydiving. The town still has plenty of places to relax in between your excursions throughout the region, however, three are some world-class restaurants to enjoy as well.

Taste the wonder of Wellington vacation packages

Wellington is a popular city in New Zealand best known for its culinary prowess. Restaurants here are world-class, offering next-level flavor and presentation you won't want to miss out on. However, it's not all extravagant fine dining, as you'll also find more modest tucked-away eateries and bars. The coffee is also quite notable, so you can always start your day with something tasty here.

Our top 5 things to do in New Zealand

From the tip of the North Island to the tail of the South Island, there is no shortage of things to do in New Zealand to keep you occupied. These are just a few of the remarkable moments we'll share with you during our time in NZ.

Auckland War Memorial Museum, Auckland

The iconic exterior only hints at the unique and extensive collection within. The museum houses a large selection of historical artefacts that showcase the rich and brutal history of New Zealand and the Pacific, as well as over 1.5 million natural history specimens.

The Great War Exhibition, Wellington

Constructed as a passion project by director Sir Peter Jackson, the Great War Exhibition tells the story of New Zealanders who fought and lived through the First World War. Although the exhibition includes many original artefacts, the life-sized sets and colorized black and white photos are standouts.

Christchurch

Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna O Waiwhetu, Christchurch

Housing a substantial art collection, The Christchurch Art Gallery Te Puna o Waiwhetū also runs a rotating programme of local and international exhibitions. Don't miss their late-night tours, which are not only free but one of the best ways to visit the gallery.

Best museums in New Zealand

By exploring New Zealand's museums and art galleries, you can get a unique perspective on the origins of this dynamic, proud country. These are just of the museums we'll share with you to peel back layers of the country.

Mince and cheese pie

Gaining popularity in the 1970s, this unique pie has layers of melted cheese just under the crispy outer crust that take the typical pastry to new heights. Find these hand-sized pastries at cafés, bakeries, and supermarkets, and local bakeries where they're baked fresh every day.

Kiwi burger

Dreamt up in 1976, the Kiwi burger contains all the usual fixings; a fresh beef patty, lettuce, tomato, cheese, onions and tomato sauce with some unique extras like beetroot, crispy egg and mustard. Although tasty burgers are available at most burger chains in New Zealand, there are cult stores that plate them up to five-star standards.

Lemon & Paeroa (L&P)

With carbonated water from Paeroa and fresh local lemon juice, New Zealand's L&P drink is a refreshing and popular way to cool down and energize. For an extra kick, the infamous Lemon & Paeroa drink is a popular cocktail base in many parts of New Zealand.

Best food in New Zealand

New Zealand easily tempts the tastebuds with its fresh, local and tasty cuisine. From savoury treats to sparkling citrusy drinks, our New Zealand trips will ensure you leave with a full and satisfied stomach.

What to pack for New Zealand

A camera and a memory card

With so many unforgettable views, make sure you pack a camera (and a spare memory card) to ensure you get the best shots. New Zealand's endlessly photographic surrounds are worth printing and framing.

Ample bag space

With woollen jumpers and fresh Manuka honey on offer, spare bag space is a must when you travel New Zealand. Just make sure you check your local customs restrictions before you go.

Comfortable walking shoes

With everything New Zealand offers to explore, make sure you take care of your feet by packing comfortable shoes. That way, you avoid missing a day of activity due to blisters and aches.

Seasonal essentials

Whether you're heading to New Zealand's mountains to ski or the beaches for a swim, you may need seasonal essentials. Consider warm clothes and swimwear to make the most of your New Zealand trips.

Small portable charger

With so much to see and do in New Zealand, your devices are likely to wear down quite quickly. Keep a portable charger on hand to make sure your devices are ready when you are.

Open spaces and lovely places

When traveling in New Zealand, it’s the rugged natural beauty that stands out: spectacular glaciers, picturesque fiords, endless coastlines, steamy geothermal activity and so much more. Its breathtaking landscapes combined with its unique Maori culture, friendly cosmopolitan cities and fabulous food and wine comprise the two remarkable islands the “Kiwis” lovingly call home. New Zealand, a haven for those seeking peace, rejuvenation and relaxation, also offers a veritable playground for the adventurous. The temperate climate makes it ideal for year-round New Zealand adventures.

Destination Must-See's

Queenstown:

Queenstown is a resort town on New Zealand’s South Island. The city is built around an inlet called Queenstown Bay on Lake Wakatipu and has spectacular views of nearby mountains and the Southern Alps. The town’s economy is focused on tourism, especially adventure and ski tourism, boasting over 200 adventure tourism activities to take part in.

It is the highest mountain in New Zealand at a staggering 12,218 feet in height. It lies in the Southern Alps, and is a part of Aoraki/Mt. Cook National Park. Mt. Cook is popular with mountain climbers who are looking for a challenge and is a popular destination for nature-lovers and casual hikers as well.

This city lies on the North Island of New Zealand and is the largest and most populous area in the country. Roughly one third of New Zealand’s population resides here, dating back to the year 1350 when the Maori people populated the land that is known for being rich and fertile. It is now filled with parks, nature, and volcanic fields as well as home to a rich culture and a good quality of living.

This coastal city is located in the Otago region and one of the Southern Hemisphere’s best-preserved Victorian and Edwardian cities. The urban area of Dunedin lies on the central-eastern coast of Otago, surrounded by the head of Otago harbor. Dunedin is known as the Edinburgh of the south because of its Scottish heritage.

Destination Must-Do's

Milford Sound:

Home to rugged landscapes and all-natural beauty, Milford Sound is described by some as the Eighth Wonder of the World. This breathtaking region is situated on the west coast of the South Island and features towering peaks, cascading waterfalls, and surreal views to all who visit. Among the surrounding peaks, travelers will witness “The Elephant,” resembling an elephant’s head, at 4,977 feet tall; and “The Lion,” resembling a crouching lion, at 4,272 feet tall.

TranzAlpine Train:

All aboard the TranzAlpine Train as it travels from Auckland to Greymouth on New Zealand’s west coast. It is said to be one of the most scenic train rides in the world. The journey runs once a day with an approximate travel time of 4 1/2 hours. This region is known as glacier country and features many natural treasures including glaciers, beaches, wetlands, lakes, mountains and forests of national parks.

Bay of Islands:

As a subtropical micro-region, known for both stunning scenery and deep rooted history, the Bay of Islands has a lot to offer travelers. In the past, these waters were once full of ship deserters, sailors, whalers, ex-convicts, and other rogues – but now the Bay of Islands is a tranquil vacation destination. Among the 144 islands that dot the warm South Pacific Bay is the famous “Hole in the Rock.” Etched over time by wind in waves, the “hole” is large enough to travel through by boat when the tide is just right.

Visit this town in the Southland region, located on the eastern shore of Lake Te Anau, the largest lake on the South Island. The town borders on the Fiordland National Park, and is home to many species of bird life. It is the perfect place for a hike or bird watching excursion.

Expert Advice

You must try world-renowned New Zealand lamb. Tasty lamb dishes are found on nearly every menu, and what better accompaniment than a glass of the country’s celebrated wine – Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, or Pinot Noir.

Be sure to keep an eye out for products made from jade, the gorgeous "greenstone.” The stone is important to the Maori who call it 'pounamu.' Maori jade carvings each have their own meaning to the people and make beautiful pendants.

You should probably know that Kiwis are obsessed with Rugby. They don’t just like it, they are crazy about it! Their national team is the All Blacks and you can find their gear for sale almost everywhere. So you may want to pick up a hat or t-shirt and become an honorary fan.

New Zealand: Best of the North Island

This tour was INCREDIBLE! Our mandatory fun activities were incredible and pushed me to do things I wouldn't otherwise (surfing). Our CEO, Rachel, made booking the extra activities super easy (Tubing with the glowworms was the best). Rachel was phenomenal and gave us fun facts as we drove into the different cities, showed us great places to eat, and was overall a wonderful person to tour North Island with.

Highlights of New Zealand

I really liked the tour especially our guide, Robyn. I was prepared for the long distances we spent driving but the van was so uncomfortable! I’m 5 ft 7in & maybe 10 lbs overweight & I could not get comfortable. My knees were bruised from pressing up against the plastic back of the seat in front of me, not nearly enough legroom. Also the seat belt fastener pressed into my hip at all times making it uncomfortable to wear the seatbelt. The only thing that made me feel better is knowing G Adventures makes charitable donations & hopefully the money to buy a decent van went to charity instead.

NEW ZEALAND – 10 Days Highlights of North and South Islands

Everything was very well organized and according to the description on the site, all transfers, attractions and accomodation. Hotels were well chosen (with one exception), clean and comfortable, guided tours had very knowledgeable and professional guides, busses of good quality. i was well informed about each step through the app. My questions were answered almost immediately through whatsapp. The only improvement point i can see is the chosen accomodation in Franz Josef (Montrose hostel): the room was not clean (bedsheet not changed, with hair on pillows and quilt) and the receptionist attitude very unpolite; i found myself another last minute accomodation and paid extra for it. All in all, thank you for a great experience in a beautiful country.

What people love about Fully Guided Tours in New Zealand

My group was phenomenal, we all had a blast together. Our guide was very communicative, using WhatsApp and a photo circle to share information, resources and photos. I’m not used to hopping hostels, so that was a bit rough, definitively pack light and try to be organized. I should have done a better job researching temperature as well - as it got much colder than I was expecting. Overall the trip was incredible and I did everything I wanted to do.

The tour guide was exceptional! The accommodations could have been better.

One of the best experiences of my life, made possible by the incredibly talented and charismatic Daisy! This was well organized with all of the logistics taken care of for you while having the freedom to pick what activities interest you most. The group setting was fun and a nice bonding expensive of people from around the world. Some of the hostel stays were great, some were just ok, but all were clean and had the essentials.

New Zealand Tour Packages

Travellers have often attempted to describe New Zealand in various ways, however, the result mostly doesn’t do justice to the country’s spectacular beauty. Some places can only be appreciated when you experience them and New Zealand certainly falls in this category. With a diverse and awe-inspiring landscape, New Zealand is a popular tourist destination with luxury travellers, adventure enthusiasts and nature lovers. 

The country is known for its pristine lakes, black-sand beaches, natural springs, lush forests and hilly hamlets which have enamoured travellers from across the world. New Zealand is made of two main islands – the North Island or Te Ika-a-Maui and the South Island or Te Waipounamu. Separated by the Cook Strait, most of the popular tourist sites lie on these two islands. Owing to the varied experiences that the country offers, we suggest booking New Zealand tour packages to explore this beautiful country according to your interests and travel style. 

Another defining feature of New Zealand is its beautiful balance between local Māori culture and the famous Kiwi life. Māoris are an inseparable part of New Zealand and trace their history back a 1000 years. Today, they make for almost 14% of the population, and their culture offers travellers an insightful experience. To explore some elements of the Māori culture, travellers can include a visit to the various marae in their New Zealand tour packages. 

With its abundant natural beauty, it’s no surprise that the country is a haven for adventure buffs. A hiker’s paradise, the many forests in New Zealand offer umpteen opportunities for hiking, trekking and camping. Travellers also must include Rotorua canopy tours, skydiving, caving and heli-skiing in their New Zealand tour packages. 

Most travellers consider New Zealand as an expensive country and while this may be true to a large extent, the country welcomes all kinds of travellers. Opening its doors to budget travellers and backpackers, the country is making tourism a part of its vibrant culture through customised New Zealand tour packages. A country that values nature’s blessings immensely, New Zealand is one of the best examples of a symbiotic relationship between man and nature – a lesson all travellers can imbibe and learn from. 

New Zealand Highlights

The largest and the most visited city in New Zealand is Auckland. A part of all New Zealand tour packages, it is an introduction to what awaits them in this charming country. Since the country’s biggest international airport is in the city, chances are that your New Zealand tour packages will begin the tour from here. Said to be one of the top 10 cities in the world by many travel portals, Auckland is a mix of urban living and natural beauty. Full of scenic parks, gardens and lakes, travellers can escape from the chaos of the busy city in minutes. It’s also the centre for adrenaline-pumping sports and adventure enthusiasts will have a great time in the ‘City of Sails’. One can try bungy-jumping from the harbour bridge or the towering Sky Tower or head to one of the nearby rainforests for a thrilling hiking experience. Among the best places to see in Auckland, one must include Auckland Domain, Albert Park, Muriwai Beach and Waiheke Island in New Zealand tour packages. 

Another beautiful place in New Zealand tour packages is Queenstown. A southern island, the city is surrounded by the stunning southern alps and the gorgeous Lake Wakatipu – an ideal location to include in New Zealand tour packages, if you are looking for an adventure-packed vacation. Offering a chance to experience the highest bungy-jump in the country and the largest rope swing in the world, Queenstown also offers activities such as sky-diving and zip lining. One must also include Milford Sound in New Zealand tour packages which is in proximity to Queenstown and is considered to be one of the most beautiful places in the country. Located in Fiordland National Park, Milford Sound offers a tryst with nature which is incomparable to any other experience. Mountains, azure waters and forest-clad cliffs set a picture-perfect, surreal setting which is ideal for nature lovers.

New Zealand tour packages also include a visit to one of New Zealand’s most happening cities – Wellington. An exhilarating combination of culture, art and nature, Wellington is where city people will feel at home. Keep aside at least two to three days in New Zealand tour packages to experience the city’s delicious food, vibrant nightlife and lively markets. The city seems to be in a celebratory mood at all times of the year and a visit here is definitely going to make your New Zealand vacation special. If you head to the outskirts of the city, you’ll be taken in by the charming houses and verdant fields and movie fans will be thrilled to explore this part of Wellington since the famous trilogy of the Lord of the Rings was shot here. 

For travellers who’d like to experience Maori culture and the blessings of nature, there isn’t a better place than Rotorua, better known as Nature’s Spa of the South Pacific. Surrounded by mountain peaks and dotted with gushing streams, thick forests and surreal waterfalls, it’s an unmissable retreat if you are a nature lover. Gradually gaining importance as a resort town owing to its charming landscape, its included in most New Zealand tour packages for luxury travellers. The town is most popular for natural sulphur springs, mineral hot pools and silica terraces, especially during the evenings. The view of pink and white hues against the setting sun is something that will remain with you forever. 

The Coromandel Peninsula is slowly garnering popularity as one of the best places to visit in New Zealand. Away from the hustle-bustle of cities, it’s located in the northern part of New Zealand and is popular for its golden sand beaches and a plethora of adventure activities. Among the most popular places to visit, the small city of Thames should be part of New Zealand tour packages for its history and dreamy natural beauty.

A visit to New Zealand is incomplete without exploring Bay of Islands. A huge part of New Zealand tour packages, 144 islands make Bay of Islands and it’s one of the best places to try water sports. Adventure buffs can try kayaking along the coast or explore the island trails – which are unlike any other in the world. One must also include scuba diving at Paihia Diver and underwater tours to explore the unique marine life in New Zealand tour packages.

New Zealand Travel Blogs

For all popular tourist destinations, there is a ton of information available on the web. While this information helps in preparing itineraries and booking accommodation, it does get overwhelming. If you are planning a New Zealand trip and are looking for authentic information on the best places to visit, the best things to do and unmissable experiences, we suggest going through travel blogs on Tripoto which give you authentic information on New Zealand. The personal experiences also guide travellers and help in choosing New Zealand tour packages according to travel styles and budget.

“From Kerikeri, I took a Boat Cruise through the Bay of Islands to Waitangi Wharf. The cruising boat is a totally unique way to experience New Zealand's world-famous Bay of Islands with the Northland landscapes and marine environment. I enjoyed some kayaking with the onboard kayaks and also went for some snorkelling! After spending the day on the cruise and Waitangi Wharf I went back to Kauri Cliffs.” –Eugene

New Zealand Local Cuisine

A thriving agricultural economy, New Zealand depends on local produce from both land and sea. In fact, agriculture is one of the main occupations for most communities in the country. The country’s local cuisine has influences of Australian as well as European flavours but what stands out for food lovers is the delicious Maori cuisine.

Another unique thing about New Zealand local cuisine is chicken, lamb and beef cooked according to the Maori cooking method which is known as Hāngi. Similar to an earth oven, food cooked through Hāngi is a favourite with food lovers and one can try this in local Hangi joints around the country. 

Marmite which is similar to vegemite is also quite popular and is typically eaten with bread and crackers. Food lovers with a sweet tooth will also enjoy lolly cakes which is a popular Kiwi dessert. Made with candies, sweets and marshmallows, the cakes are made using crushed biscuits and served with strong coffee. Travellers must also try green-lipped mussels, sausage sizzle, fish and chips, kina and the kiwi burger.

People love to throw around the phrase ‘natural beauty’. Then they go to New Zealand.

The ‘Land of the Long White Cloud’ – it’s a classic Kiwi understatement if there ever was one. And while most travellers are drawn to New Zealand for those epic experiences out in nature – the open spaces, the dusted peaks, the lakes that pop with blue and make a mockery of Instagram filters – that stuff is just the tip of the glacier. From the feather-clad harbingers of Maoritanga to the happening backstreets of Wellington and Dunedin, to the natural beauty of Milford Sound , this country jumps with vitality in more ways than the merely geological. Come for the epic trails and bubbling geysers, stay for the friendliest folk in the southern hemisphere.

Best time to visit new zealand.

The most pleasant time for travelling throughout New Zealand is summer (December to February); however, this is also the busiest period, especially during school holidays (late December to late January).

Winter can get very cold with frequent snowfall - but this is the perfect time to travel if you’re looking to ski or snowboard, particularly in the South Island.

Culture and customs

Modern New Zealand is home to a diverse blend of people from far and wide. Maori, Pacific Islander, European and Asian influences blend peacefully to create a vibrant culture. Known for being friendly, down-to-earth, laidback and open, most visitors will find New Zealanders from all ethnicities to be helpful, approachable, generous and up for a laugh. 

Maori culture has its origins in Polynesia so some aspects of Maori language, customs and traditions are quite similar to those of neighbouring islands. With strong traditional values based on respect for the family, ancestors and the land, Maori culture is hierarchical and steeped in centuries of tradition. Maori families typically come together for special occasions, celebrations and ceremonies filled with sacred dance, spiritual song and traditional food.

Visitors will see traditional Maori art and carving almost everywhere they go in New Zealand, from elaborate tattooing to carved necklaces. Although Maori culture experienced a decline after the arrival of European settlers, it experienced a renaissance of sorts in the 1960s, which continues to grow today.

Eating and drinking

With award-winning wineries, quality craft-beer bars, a world-class restaurant scene and a multitude of farmers' markets, eating in New Zealand is a real treat. Its Pacific location gives it an interesting mix of flavours, as European influences mesh with Asian and Polynesian.

When it comes to food – or kai , in the Maori language – there’s nothing quite like tucking into a traditional hangi dinner. It’s a hearty repast, fit for a warrior, cooked underground on heated rocks. Today’s hangi feast most often comprises slow-roasted meats, potatoes and stuffing, though there are many variations.

At the other end of the spectrum, there’s the seafood. The locals are spoilt for choice on this front – being an island nation definitely has its advantages. Fresh prawns, lobster, mussels and oysters are in abundance all year round, but fish and chips on the beach can be just as satisfying, especially for those on a budget.

Must-try food and drink in New Zealand

1. Wine & craft beer

Producing a huge variety of top quality wines (many more than just the famous Sauvignon Blancs), New Zealand is full of vineyards and cellar doors to visit. Microbreweries are well represented too; the Kiwis more than pull their weight in the global small-batch craft beer movement, especially in Wellington.

2. Crayfish

There are plenty of places to try crayfish, but Kaikoura, near the top of the South Island, is the best. This sperm-whale-watching capital of the world was in fact named after the crayfish (Kaikoura translates to ‘eat crayfish’ in Maori), and there’s a slew of places along the beach to sample the day’s fresh catch.

With sheep playing a huge part in New Zealand’s agricultural economy, it’s no wonder succulent lamb can be found in most restaurants. If you’re a meat lover, don’t leave New Zealand without tasting the lamb (if you’re indulging in a hangi feast, chances are you will).

4. Kiwis, Feijoas & Tamarillos

Though none of them actually originated in New Zealand (Kiwis came from China; Feijoas and Tamarillos came from South America), these fruits have become synonymous with New Zealand and are all fairly major exports. While kiwi fruit is well known to most of us, it’s the feijoas and tamarillos you should take advantage of while in New Zealand. Abundant, versatile and an acquired taste, they pop up everywhere from roadside stalls to front-garden giveaways to gourmet cafe dishes.

Even though the creator of this desert is hotly contested by their trans-Tasman cousins, the pavlova – a dessert with a meringue-like base and topped with whipped cream and fresh fruit - was the invention of a Wellington chef to honour Russian ballet dancer Anna Pavlova's tour of Australia and New Zealand in the 1920s. It’s a must-try for the sweet tooths.

Top 10 wine regions of New Zealand

1. marlborough.

New Zealand’s wine capital produces top quality chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot gris but it’s the sauvignon blanc that has achieved cult status around the world. Also producing first-class seafood and olive oil, Marlborough is a fave with foodies and wine lovers.

2. Canterbury

With the ideal climate for grape growing, Canterbury produces many internationally acclaimed wine varieties, including pinot noir, pinot gris, chardonnay and Riesling. Pegasus Bay Winery is one of the most popular in this area, and with a restaurant attached to the winery visitors can indulge in the complete culinary experience.

3. Bay of Plenty

This picturesque area may be well known for its pristine beaches, but it’s also got a few small wineries well worth visiting. Surrounding berry farms, orchards and lavender fields add to the charm.

4. Auckland

There are many boutique wineries creating note-worthy drops in and around Auckland. Kumeu, Henderson and Waiheke Island are hotspots for wine tourism – with awarded wines coming from many small, up-and-coming estates.

5. Central Otago

Spectacular mountain ranges, azure lakes and rolling rivers combine to create one of the world's most scenic wine regions. The vineyards of Central Otago produce a wide range of grapes, but the pinot noir is considered the best.

6. Northland

Way up north, the vineyards populating the historic Northland area produce a wide range of reds and whites. From iconic chardonnay to the more complex chambourcin and exotic syrah, there are loads of cellar doors waiting to welcome you.

7. Hawke’s Bay

New Zealand’s oldest wine growing region also produces most of New Zealand’s most sustainable wines. This commitment to sustainability in the industry has garnered worldwide attention, as has its bold, full-bodied reds. The Art Deco town of Napier is well worth a visit too.

8. Gisborne

If you like your wines a little fruity then the Gisborne region will impress. Merlot, gewurztraminer, syrah and chardonnay are among the best on offer in this region, which is on the same parallel as Malaga and Melbourne.

Winemaking is considered an art form in cultured Nelson. With many unique producers in the region, it won’t be hard to find some smooth wines to savour. Local delis, cafes, providores and galleries add to the artistic, gastronomic mix.

10. Wairarapa

This relatively small winemaking region is made up of three sub-regions: Martinborough, Masterton and Gladstone. Although only a small amount of New Zealand's wine is produced here, the quality is superb with a great track record in pumping out world-class pinot noir.

7. Come alive to Maoritanga in Rotorua

Geysers erupt on the hour in this hotbed of Maori culture, and the locals are only too eager to share their culture and traditional lands.

Learn more about Maori culture

With a nice little mix of malls, boutiques, galleries, fresh produce markets, cellar doors and providores, New Zealand has enough variety to keep most keen shoppers happy. Look beyond the tourist shops selling stuffed toys and flags and dig a little deeper to find unique art, locally-made crafts and gourmet goods.

It’s a good idea to check with your local customs officials to ensure that you are able to bring certain items back into your home country. Australia and New Zealand generally have strict quarantine laws.

Things to buy in New Zealand

1. Tasty treats

New Zealand is home to many producers of fine food. Home grown wine, olive oil, honey, jam and avocado oil are among the best picks.

With a huge sheep population, the quality and variety of wool is superb in New Zealand. As well as the classic Merino option, consider buying some gloves or socks made from possum wool – it’s durable, warm and a good environmental choice (the possum population poses a major threat to the endangered Kiwi bird).

3. Art and handicrafts

From ceramic bowls to metal sculptures, woodcarvings to greenstone jewellery, you'll find traditional Maori techniques and influences in many of New Zealand’s art and crafts. Try to find authentic, locally made items rather than imported (and inferior!) goods.

Geography and environment

Sitting in the South Pacific Ocean, this island nation is split in two – comprising two major landmasses surrounded by several smaller islands. And while there are many natural similarities between the two islands, they each have their own geographical and environmental character.

The mountainous South Island is larger, and its scenery unfolds on a grand scale. One of its crown jewels is Mt Cook, which is both the highest peak in the country and one of the most stunning sights. Fiords, glaciers, rugged bush and rocky coast are also major features of the South Island, and the differences between the likes of Franz Josef Glacier and the rugged Catlins Coast show the island’s great diversity.

The North Island, on the other hand, is more volcanic, though it has three times the population of the south. Typical features include bubbling lakes and mud pools, and geysers that erupt regularly (and spectacularly). The North Island is great for a hike or zip-line through untouched virgin native forest, with large national parks and reserves preserving the nation’s heritage bushland and the iconic Kiwi bird.

History and government

Early history.

Maori tribes, descended from Polynesia, lived in New Zealand for centuries before the arrival of Europeans in the 18th century. Relying on fishing, hunting and foraging, these people were able to live off the land and develop a deep connection with the earth as a result of this.

European settlers caused wide-scale disruption and land loss for the Maoris, which resulted in conflict and displacement in the early days of colonization. The 1840 Treaty of Waitangi officially recognized Maori land ownership, of which the British and Maoris were signatories. This historic agreement is viewed as a pivotal moment in New Zealand’s history and the first important step towards reconciliation between the original inhabitants and settlers.

Recent history

In 1852, New Zealand was granted the right to self-govern and in 1907, independence was granted (although the British monarchy remain as head of state). More recently, New Zealand voted in its first female prime minister in 1997. Jenny Shipley held office for two years, before handing over to another female leader - Helen Clarke, who continued to lead until 2008.  In the last ten years, New Zealand has enjoyed a surge in tourism, partly due to the wealth of wineries, ski fields and nature reserves. The film industry has also been a great champion of New Zealand, with filmmakers enjoying the rugged terrain and relatively cheap costs associated with filming in New Zealand. The Lord of the Rings franchise is probably the most well known film to be shot in New Zealand, and has been largely responsible for putting New Zealand in the international spotlight.  A devastating earthquake hit Christchurch in 2011, resulting in widespread loss of life and infrastructure. Although Christchurch is still rebuilding, visitors are encouraged to visit this spirited city.

Festivals and events

With such an interesting cultural landscape – a fiery combo of Maori culture, Pacific rhythms and the European traditions – New Zealand is a place to celebrate. It’s a country that not only excels at celebrating its indigenous cultures, but embraces the contemporary with a playful zest.

New Zealand Festival

Running each February and March, this is the premier Kiwi art and culture event. From theatre to opera, sculpture to painting, cinema to dance, it’s the best overall window to New Zealand’s broad creative palette. And a strong sense of its roots as a nation, with Maori and Pacific cultures well represented.

International Hobbit Day

Whether you’re a die-hard fan is almost beside the point – this up-and-coming festival is worth it for the backdrop alone. Sample local cheese and wine in the rolling hills of Waikato, which takes on an especially magical atmosphere in the lamplight. A tour of the The Hobbit movie set will impress the most cynical of disbelievers.

Queenstown Winter Festival

Bringing in each powdery winter since 1975, the Queenstown Winter Festival usually takes place over a weekend in June. With comedy, food, music and – would you believe it in Queenstown? – adventure sports aplenty, it’s well worth planning your South Island visit around this one. The Monteith’s Dog Derby and Dog Barking Competition is something of an institution.

Who are the First Nations people of New Zealand?

Originally from eastern Polynesia, they settled in what is now known as New Zealand (or Aotearoa, the ‘Land of the Long White Cloud’) over 1000 years ago. The Maori are a tribal people with many different facets to their culture, including a strong sense of kinship, warrior roots, sacred spaces (such as the marae, or meeting place), facial tattooing, and the concept of manaakitanga (showing respect). 

The Maori language (Te Reo Maori) is unique to New Zealand, spoken only in this part of the Pacific. Though most Maori people today live a modern European-style life, a small number of Maori still live a traditional life.

Is New Zealand a safe destination for LGBTQI travellers?

New Zealand legalized same-sex marriage in 2013, and is by and large welcoming of gay and gender-fluid communities. While the big cities such as Auckland and Wellington are accommodating towards LGBTQI travellers, caution should be used in rural areas where conservative views are more prevalent (as in any developed country).
