New Zealand exceeded our expectations. Spectacular scenery, very friendly people, extremely comfortable accommodation, delicious food.

- F.R.

Rising dramatically from the Pacific Ocean, this island nation was forged by ice and fire to create some of the most jaw-dropping scenery to be found anywhere in the world.

It may be small in size, but the numerous natural wonders, curious wildlife, cultural diversity and welcoming local people make it the perfect destination for touring independently.

It can be overwhelming to decide how to spend your time here with so much to see and do. Our experts have spent plenty of time exploring the far reaches of the country to bring you their ideas and inspiration.
