Go Your Way

No Fixed Itinerary
No rules to follow and no schedules to keep. Freedom to explore what you want, when you feel like it. Time to linger and get off the beaten track. It's no wonder that independent travel is increasingly popular with people all over the world. And New Zealand is the ultimate destination for independent travellers. New Zealanders have a history of exploring every corner of their own backyard - road trips, cycling tours and camping holidays - so the country is uniquely geared up for independent travellers. New Zealand is friendly, safe and it won't break the bank. It has a vibrant culture, relaxed and liberal attitudes, and amazing scenery offering great opportunities for all kinds of outdoor activities. No fixed itinerary? You've come to the right place.

Love is in the Air
New Zealand is a great place for romance. From the unique pleasure of exploring wild and beautiful parts of the country alone but for your loved one, to the luxury of a romantic retreat in one of New Zealand's boutique lodges or hotels, there are plenty of ways to indulge your romantic side. Share a bottle of wine at a vineyard, enjoy a picnic - deux at a secluded beach or linger over a meal in a stylish city restaurant. Then do something unforgettably adventurous together: black water rafting or skydiving, perhaps. New Zealand is also an increasingly popular location for weddings. Whether you're looking for a traditional church ceremony or a unique setting such as a garden, beach or forest, you'll find it here. A wedding planner can help you organise the details.

Travelling With Family
New Zealand is a great place for travelling with children. Renting a car makes it easy to transport the whole family. Pick up some games to keep the children entertained while you drive. Motels offer great value flexibility for families, often with kitchen facilities onsite, or rent a self-contained apartment. Camping grounds often have cabins. Although you'll probably share bathroom and kitchen facilities with others, the children will enjoy space to play. You'll find family-friendly restaurants in all centres, including many familiar fast-food chains! The outdoor activities that make New Zealand famous are perfect for families. With supervision, you can take your children walking, skiing or dolphin-watching, and older children may be able to participate in some of the more adventurous activities. New Zealand is a great place for families to spend quality time together - your children will never forget their New Zealand adventure!
