New Zealand Day Trips & Things To Do

Things to do in New Zealand


“Not all those who wander are lost.” — J.R.R. Tolkien, Author - Lord of the Rings


From its untamed wilderness to rich Maori culture, New Zealand is a holiday destination unlike any other and offers something for everyone. From heart-pumping adrenaline activities to relaxing wine tastings, cultural tours, snow tours and more, you’re sure to find a New Zealand travel package that speaks to you.


Cast into the Hollywood spotlight when the heart of the mighty Waikato region transformed into the fictional realms of the Shire and Hobbiton, as featured in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit Trilogies, this small island in the southwestern Pacific Ocean is unlike anywhere else in the world.


Experience Nature’s Beauty With New Zealand Tours


Almost spellbinding, New Zealand’s natural beauty is dispersed across its two main landmasses—the North Island and the South Island —and over 700 smaller islands.

From towering mountains and mist-cloaked fjords, you can find serenity in golden beaches curled around quiet bays, with a  village-like community feel evident throughout the entire nation.

Take the magnificent Piopiotahi / Milford Sound for example; often described as an immense and dramatic landscape, Milford Sound casts a spell over all who visit, with breathtaking geological formations and a history rich in Maori legends.

Explore this area by sea, land or sky on a Milford Sound tour - with Milford Sound tour packages even available for those looking for the ultimate experience in one of New Zealand’s most picture-perfect locations!

 

New Zealand Wine Tours & Brewery Tours


New Zealand has undergone a wine explosion over the past 25 years, with the country now home to over 600 wineries and more recently, breweries.
Famous for its Sauvignon Blanc, New Zealand’s vineyards are widely spread all over the two islands. Enjoy one of many different New Zealand wine tours: from the boutique producers to the Sauvignon and Pinot Gris vines around the Marlborough wine region, which represents 62 per cent of the total vineyard area!

Check out this Gourmet Queenstown Food and Wine Tour to get a taste of what else is on offer.
