New Zealand holiday packages
Within the Southwestern Pacific lies the beautiful country of New Zealand. Divided as the North and South Island, this natural wonder of a country is one of the most popular destinations in the world for family holidays.
Best time for New Zealand trip packages
With its magnificent mountains, beautiful lakes, adrenaline-pumping adventure, rich history and artwork, New Zealand travel packages are the ideal picks for families to have a relaxing time and enjoy their holiday. Located on the Southern hemisphere, summer (Dec - Feb) is the best time to go to New Zealand. It would also be amazing to spend a warm Christmas and New Year. On the other hand, if you're looking to explore the winter sports and the snowy mountains, then winters (Jun - Aug) are your best bet in New Zealand.
Explore the magic of the Kiwi land with our New Zealand Trip Packages
Originally home to the Maoris - the indigenous tribe - New Zealand was then taken over by the British during the colonial rule. This has resulted in a blend of Western and indigenous culture that is preserved even now. With our New Zealand holiday packages for family, you can explore this amazing island country like a local. Although Wellington is its capital, New Zealand boasts of other international cities like Christchurch, Auckland and Queenstown.
Auckland
Located on the North Island, Auckland is a harbour city that's decked with super yachts and high skyline. Our ultimate guide to Auckland includes the best place to explore the Maori culture and history in the world class museum of Auckland. The city's major attraction is the Sky Tower. Other parts of the city, like Waitemata, Waiheke Island, and Rangitoto Island, are the ideal places for the adventure-seeking lot who want New Zealand travel packages. They include numerous places in New Zealand for bungee jumping, kayaking, trekking, ziplining and volcanos.
Queenstown
For a combination of adventure sports, breathtaking landscapes and art and architecture, visit Queenstown. Located on the shores of the south island against the backdrop of the Southern Alps, Queenstown is a natural wonder, indeed. Skiing during the winters and jet skiing, bungee jumping and trekking during the summers and observing the art and local vineyards of this serene place are some of the best things to do in Queensland as part of your New Zealand holiday packages.
Christchurch
Most famously known for the Avon River that meanders through the center of the city, Christchurch is also famous for its natural parks and stone buildings. Explore the city on an open-top double-decker bus tour as part of our New Zealand trip packages. Also, enjoy the restaurants and bars the city has to offer.
Wellington
The capital of New Zealand, Wellington, has sandy beaches where you can bask in the sun. You can also take a walk on the waterfront promenade covering most of the city, and gaze at the timbre houses colourfully dotting the encompassing hills. Enjoy shopping in the Wellington city centre and take keepsakes from your New Zealand holidays.
Rotorua
While Christchurch and Wellington are typical cities with skylines and nightlife, Rotorua is a natural wonder, most famous for its geothermal activity.
