New Zealand is a great place for family holidays.

No where else in the world will you find the range of adventures, scenery, the unique Maori culture and friendly people. New Zealand's three main islands are about the size of Japan or the state of California in the United States and we have just under 4 million people who live here. Plenty of space for lots of adventure, rest and relaxation and wonderful experiences. New Zealand gives your family the opportunity to see wildlife and animals like rare penguins, whales, ancient tuatara and kiwi bird.

Then there's the scenery. Where else can you see subtropical rainforests, ancient glaciers, places where the earth's crust in so thin that mud boils and steam shoots from the earth all in one country? And in such a compact country, travelling distances are not long. Summer or winter, there's always plenty to see and do. Kayaking, snorkelling, swimming and surfing in the most beautiful places. Skiing and snowboarding in majestic mountains, river rafting, jet boating….the list is endless!

The Maori people have a unique history and culture which you and your family can experience. Imagine eating food that been cooked in a hole in the ground (remember that thin Earth's crust?), and seeing the fearless war dance or haka. And the food! Fresh, tasty and lots of variety. Your family will love our famous ice cream and what better way for you to unwind that with a beautiful bottle of world renowned New Zealand wine.

New Zealand is a very safe country for families. We have no poisonous snakes or dangerous animals (outside of zoos!). We are well known for our honesty and friendliness. You and your family will be most welcome here. You'll go away with life long memories and new friends.
