New Zealand is comprised of two main islands, the North Island in the north, and (strangely enough) the South Island in the south. There are also many many other islands dotted around, the largest being Stewart Island, at the very southern tip of the South Island. Roughly 73 percent of New Zealand’s population, of approximately are of European descent. A further 11-12 percent belong to the Maori people, a pacific island group who arrived in New Zealand around 1200 AD. New Zealand is a tourist mecca. From blue lakes and golden beaches, to huge mountains and beautiful native forests. From tall buildings in Auckland City, to the quiet open fields of the Canterbury Plains and the rolling, tussock-covered hills of Central Otago. New Zealand really has it all. In every corner of the country there are top attractions, from thrill-seeking rides, to peaceful bush walks and scenic views. |

Auckland has two huge harbours enfolding an environment that’s alive with cultural excitement and sea-flavoured challenges. Auckland is New Zealand’s largest city so you can expect all the assets of a modern city, but be surprised by the scope for adventure. Highlights include Great Barrier Island, Hibiscus Coast, Matakana Coast, Waiheke Island, Warkworth, North Shore, the Waitakere Ranges and North West wine district |
