NEXT LEVEL ADVENTURES IN NEW ZEALAND

Ancient glaciers, vast forests, rugged mountains, beautiful beaches, and incredible wildlife make New Zealand the ultimate great outdoors destination, all within easy reach of each other. Combine these stunning landscapes with the infamously warm Kiwi welcome all served up with a delicious glass of wine from the New World and you could well have the perfect escape.

In the North visit a geothermal wonderland with bubbling sulphur pools or hop around the idyllic islands spotting dolphins and whales. Go jet-boating through scenic canyons or take a helicopter ride to the top of the snow-capped Alps in the South. A holiday to New Zealand can be as adventurous or as laid-back as you’d like.

NORTH ISLAND

The North Island is a glorious combination of beautiful beaches, lively cities, and picturesque countryside. You can sip crisp white wine in Hawke’s Bay, discover the country’s artsy capital, Wellington, immerse yourself in fascinating history in Waitangi and take your tastebuds on a tour around Auckland.

Because of its volcanic DNA, the North Island is home to a plethora of geothermal marvels. Explore Tororuas hot springs, gaze across Lake Taupo, the largest lake in New Zealand, or while away the days at Tongariro National Park. Not only will you be spoilt for choice when it comes to hiking routes, but this location is also a firm favourite for Tolkien fans as scenes from The Lord of the Rings films were filmed against these epic backdrops.

Head a little further North of Auckland and you’ll find yourself in a more sub-tropical climate. Visit idyllic islands, gorgeous bays and spend your days lazing on the picture-perfect beaches or spotting dolphins on the seas.

SOUTH ISLAND

Home to many of New Zealand’s most popular attractions such as Franz Josef Glacier, Mount Cook, and the awe-inspiring Milford Sound, the south is an abundance of national parks boasting staggeringly gorgeous landscapes from snow-capped mountains to sparkling teal waters. Nature lovers will be delighted by the incredible wildlife encounters possible here, including rare penguins in Dunedin and Whales and seals in Kaikoura. And don’t forget to include Stewart Island on your itinerary, where you can see rare kiwi in their natural habitat.

For the thrill-seekers amongst us, your lust for adrenaline will be satisfied in Queenstown with exhilarating activities such as sky diving, bungee jumping, and zip-lining all on offer. And for the wine connoisseurs, a visit to New Zealand isn’t complete without embarking on a leisurely tour of Marlborough’s vineyards before a tasting session of some of the country’s world-class wines.

MULTI-DESTINATION ESCAPES

There’s no denying, New Zealand is a long way away – so you might as well make the most of it! A multi-destination escape is a perfect way to experience everything New Zealand has to offer. Combine the North and South Islands for the trip of a lifetime, or if you’ve exhausted yourself on adventure consider a relaxing beach retreat on the Cook Islands or Fiji where you can stretch out on white-sand beaches and bathe in tropical sunshine. Alternatively, pair your trip to New Zealand with a buzzing city like Singapore. Whatever your dream Australasia escape looks like, we’re here to help you bring it to life.
