New Zealand - Private Travel

New Zealand delivers infinite natural beauty, outdoor adventure, urban charm and exceptional cuisine.

Cinema tourism is big in New Zealand, thanks to The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit movies – find more than 150 locations.

The two islands of New Zealand offer a world of pleasurable pursuits, whether you’re looking for robust adventure or peaceful down-time. Maybe a bit of both?

Auckland at the top of the North Island enjoys sunny weather, iconic Polynesian culture, terrific food and wine, and excellent shopping. Beautiful beaches and plentiful hiking trails are just a short drive away, as are ferries to a number of outlying islands.

The wineries of Hawke’s Bay entice visitors with tantalizing Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah, while the beaches and luxury resorts get them to stay for a while. Other pastimes here include birdwatching at Cape Kidnappers and hiking the trails around Lake Waikaremoana. New Zealand’s capital city of Wellington is at the southern tip of the North Island, replete with a splendid waterfront, sandy beaches, bakeries and boutiques, and a renowned coffee culture.

On the South Island, the hospitality of Christchurch never fails to impress, as do the inlets and beaches of nearby Banks Peninsula. Visitors can embark on wildlife cruises, explore the vineyards of Waipara Valley or drink in the pastoral perfection of Canterbury Plains.

New Zealand cuisine delivers a flavourful mix of European, Asian and Polynesian influences. The lamb of course is legendary, with pork and venison not that far behind. Seafood splendour includes salmon and lobster, oysters and scallops. The national dish? Pavlova, a meringue dessert topped with berries, passionfruit and – kiwis.

What is the most memorable vacation you have planned for a client?

I planned a lady’s trip to Portugal, for 8 women all celebrating landmark birthdays. We had our own Benz van with a driver and picked up local guides in each area. It was a lot of fun to put together!
