As a family-orientated country, New Zealand has all the ingredients to ensure you’ll have a relaxing holiday together. We have personally selected extraordinary local experiences for children of all ages. And our focus is on nature conservation and small-scale locally owned companies.
Hop aboard, one of the best train journeys in the world. Go stargazing at Lake Tekapo. Spot yellow-eyed penguins and the elusive Kiwi bird. Have a close encounter with seals. Visit a local market. Swim. Go fishing for trout. Learn about the dynamic Maori culture.
