New Zealand is a relatively small country, both in terms of size and population. It’s divided into two main islands: the North Island and the South Island.

The North Island is home to the capital, vibrant and laid-back Wellington, as well as cosmopolitan Auckland, New Zealand’s largest city.

Not to be outdone, the South Island boasts picturesque Christchurch and adventure-filled Queenstown among its ranks. Our luxury holiday packages for Australia and New Zealand are packed with adventure as well as relaxation. Wherever you choose to go, our New Zealand tour packages will ensure you don’t miss out on any of the highlights.

Visit another world on your New Zealand holiday

Despite its compact size, the country packs in a stunning variety of breath-taking natural scenery, and self-drive New Zealand holidays are a fantastic way of exploring. Travellers can also explore tours of Australia and New Zealand from the UK.

Travel to the distinctive geothermal landscape of Rotorua on North Island. Lose yourself in this dynamic region of surging rivers, seething mud pools and spouting geysers, where the tang of sulphur scents the air. You can enjoy hiking through dense forests and mountains, or relax in nutrient-rich hot springs at luxury spas.

A fly-drive New Zealand trip opens up the opportunity to travel to both islands, enabling you to tour the elegant silence of the glaciers and fjords in the south-west of the country.

New Zealand also offers a unique opportunity to explore fictional worlds. Fans of The Lord of the Rings can journey to Middle Earth and immerse themselves in Tolkien’s creation. Visit Hobbiton to stroll through the Shire, and enjoy a pint at the Green Dragon Inn, or venture out to some of the real-world locations used in the films.
