Welcome to New Zealand
Nestled within the southwestern Pacific Ocean, New Zealand’s islands are home to extraordinary natural beauty. From dormant volcanoes to glacial lakes, dramatic snow-capped mountain ranges and sweeping valleys, these landscapes will surprise and delight every traveller. Combined with its vibrant culture combining Maori heritage with European influences, it’s no wonder why this country continues to be one of the world’s most popular destinations.
From hiking and biking to kayaking, rafting, skiing or mountain climbing, visitors are spoilt for choice when it comes to activities. The extra-adventurous can also try their hand at skydiving, bungee jumping, or even zorbing if it appeals! On top of its outdoor magic, New Zealand is also known for its vibrant culture. Experience traditional Maori heritage through hangi feasts, featuring authentic song and dance performances, visit the many art galleries showcasing contemporary New Zealand works, or visit the Auckland War Memorial Museum to learn about the country’s history. Other attractions include renowned vineyards producing award-winning wines, wildlife sanctuaries where you can observe rare birds and other animals in their natural habitat, warm thermal hot pools in Rotorua perfect for relaxing after a day of exploration — the list goes on!
When it comes to foodies, New Zealand has something special in store too. Sample succulent seafood cooked in geothermal heat or savour classic dishes like pavlova and hāngi. Whether you’re looking for local specialties or international favourites – from food trucks to fine dining – there’s something for everyone here.
