Located in the Pacific Ocean, New Zealand consists of two main islands - the North Island and the South Island - in addition to other smaller ones.
Touristic spots
North Island
New Zealand's North Island serves as a gateway to this picturesque and exciting country, home to the capital Wellington. This is a destination to be considered from every perspective: from the magnificent Waitemata Bay surrounding Auckland to the charming seaside towns scattered across the Bay of Islands and Bay of Plenty; from the bottom of the Coromandel Caves with their brilliant fireflies to the bubbling sulphurous mud baths of Rotorua.
The North Island landscape ranges from lush rainforests, inviting a hike, to the marinas of charming coastal villages, with something for every visitor regardless of personal interest. There is a rich history and heritage to be discovered in this region, such as the arrival of the first Maori canoes and the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi. There's also abundant wildlife waiting to be explored, including the rare kiwi, white herons, seals, and penguin colonies. For wine enthusiasts, the North Island offers visits to wineries producing Pinot Noirs, Cabernets and Merlots.
South Island
It is on New Zealand's South Island that visitors encounter some of the most rugged landscapes and vigorous experiences in the country. From mountainous Alpine shores to charming villages; from adrenaline-charged adventure to world-renowned wine tasting, South Island offers a diverse range of fun for any traveler.
At over 3,700 meters high, Mt. Cook is the highest peak in the country and, together with twenty-seven other peaks above 3,000 meters, constitutes New Zealand's famous Southern Alps, forming a panoramic backbone along the South Island.
Best time to go to New Zealand
Because of the warmer temperatures, which average 25°C, summer is the most popular season for those who wish to travel around New Zealand. Even so, in winter it is possible to enjoy the ski season with temperatures close to zero degrees in the South Island.
The four seasons are very remarkable in the country, and the right time to plan the trip depends on the traveler's type of itinerary. The change of the color of the leaves of the trees in autumn provides beautiful scenery all over the country; and the pleasant spring allows you to take advantage of the promises of summer charm without the rigor of winter temperatures.
