About New Zealand

New Zealand is one of the few places on the planet where First World amenities meet Old World charm and pristine natural beauty. The northern and southern islands, along with 600 neighbouring small islands and islets make up this island nation. The majority of the attractions and experiences (along with the population!) are found on the two main islands, while the smaller ones sate travellers’ wanderlust and appetite for adventure. New Zealand is remarkably beautiful in its own right, wooing international travellers with foggy mountains, glaciers, verdant valleys to lively cityscapes, superb cuisine, wine tours, Māori and unmatched adventure! Often clubbed with South Pacific getaways such as Fiji, New Caledonia and Solomon Islands, we believe New Zealand stands in a category of its own.

Why visit New Zealand?

New Zealand (or Aotearoa, too!) will appeal any and all travellers in search of untamed mountain ranges, forests, beaches, culture and history. Here, rent an RV and surround oneself by nature at picturesque eco-havens like Abel Tasman and Fiordland National Park, then swing into action-packed destinations like Queenstown, and swan into urban hotspots of Christchurch and Wellington. Need a cupful of culture? Spend a day at Rotorua, soaking in the Māori culture and heritage, while enjoying an actual soak in the geothermal mud pools.

Best time to Visit New Zealand

New Zealand is a round-the-year destination. There’s something to do and experience at all times of the year, just that some are livelier while the others, relatively mellow. The summer months of November to March are great for outdoor activities like hikes and swims, given the average temperature hovers between 16-24°C with occasional cooling spells. January is the ‘touristy’ month, which can see accommodations being pricier at a short notice – may we suggest advance bookings? Enquire here for holiday deals and packages and our South Pacific Specialists will reach out to you with details. Moving on, February and March are relatively less populated with April heralding the oncoming of autumn. June to August are winter months with average temperature hovering between 6-12°C. The Southern Island gets especially cold and receives ample snowfall, making it a mecca for skiers and snowboarders.

Summers are also popular for their many cultural experiences. Guests get to enjoy Waitangi Day in February and Pasifika festival in March while Matariki adds much needed colours to the cold June/July. Each of these events sees New Zealand come together to celebrate its vibrant culture with plenty of singing, dancing and good food. Fair warning, all of them are addictive to boot!

Top 5 Experiences in New Zealand

With its plethora of offerings, any top 5 list for New Zealand remains debatable. But, our in-house experts highlight experiences you’ll be coming back again for.

Set out to hike on the Tongariro Alpine Crossing. This scenic 19 km trail takes guests through stunning volcanic landscapes, past bewitching lakes and old lava flows. Visitors are in for a magical experience at the Waitomo Glowworm Caves. Thousands of glowworms illuminate these caverns while visitors gently glide through the cave on boats.
