New Zealand - Aotearoa 'land of the long white cloud', lies like a jewel in the South Pacific Ocean. Isolated from other land masses and free from indigenous mammalian predators and herbivores, these islands have developed their own peculiar flora and fauna over time - subtropical rainforests, thermal geyserlands, majestic glacial mountain ranges, arable plains and soaring fjords - all of which bear witness to New Zealand's astonishing geographical diversity. Our 'Unique New Zealand' holiday is a self-drive experience making use of hotels and intimate farmstays in conjunction with a comprehensive manual of suggested walks, drives and excursions around the country. The holiday may be enjoyed in its entirety or by selecting just the North Island or South Island sections.
