Home of the All Blacks world-famous rugby team, New Zealand is a great destination for outdoor activities – from hiking to skiing, rafting and surfing.
Having that rugged charm that’s so appealing to the adventurous kind, Kiwi country is a blend of forests, vineyards, weathered rocks and spectacular beaches, both white and black sanded – basically you’re never far from a day at the beach, wherever you may roam.
Nonetheless, if you feel more like having a classic holiday, you can always chose to relax in a tempting luxurious day spa with thermal waters, visit a zoo with the kids or have some innocent yet thrilling fun at the many casino spread around the island.
And there’s no better way to end your trip than watch a traditional Maori Haka performance followed by a Hangi (earth oven) feast. |
