Mind blowing scenery, delightful wines, delicious food, relaxing natural springs, rich and diverse culture, exciting adventures and above all, friendly and lovely people. We did a 16 day holiday in New Zealand and most of it was a drive through. To me it’s a lot more than just one country. I am so happy to share our adventure with you!
