For an uplifting experience, the land of captivating Maori culture and the legendary “long white cloud” – New Zealand, offers an unbeatable combination of adventure, luxury and soul-stirring scenery. New Zealand’s mystical landscape of glaciers, mountains, and smouldering volcanoes provide the backdrop to a country of exhilarating adventures. Stunning landscapes, vibrant forests, amazing wildlife and great climate make it a fantastic destination for those who love the great outdoors. Often considered the adventure capital of the world, in New Zealand anything goes – from the original bungy jump over the swirling waters of the Kawarau River, swimming with hundreds of wild Dusky Dolphins, or landing on a glacier for a bottle of champagne, to simply relaxing on a beautiful beach without a soul in sight. With such a diverse society, New Zealanders are some of the most welcoming people you can find, and with their emerging world-class cuisine and spectacular wines, this really is one of the most diverse and exciting holiday destinations in the world.

Comparable in size to the UK, but with a population of only four million, New Zealand is one of the world’s least crowded countries, but one of the most amazing and diverse for holidays. New Zealand is divided up into two large islands, North & South. The North Island has more tradition and is more of a cultural adventure than the South, but it has its fair share of volcanoes to hike up, islands that are only accessible by helicopter to explore, sprawling farmlands to walk across, and lots of rich and unique Maori culture. New Zealand’s South Island is perhaps most famous for its scenery: from the epic mountain ranges featured in Lord of the Rings, to the wild west coast, vertical sea cliffs of the fiordlands, and the stunning coves and beaches of the Abel Tasman National Park.  There’s a little something for everyone: culture-lovers can meet with tattooed Maoris, geology fans can trek through the volcanic valley of Roturua, and thrill-seekers can white water raft on glacier-carved fjords or even ‘heli-ski’ across Queenstown’s snowy mountains. And for the gourmands, you can indulge in world-class wine at exclusive wineries where you can meet the experts, taste the best Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir and take in the dramatic scenery.
