Tourism in New Zealand

Many people ask me what they should see in New Zealand so I’ve written a few posts about things that are favourites of mine, a little quirky and off the beaten track.

Vegemitevix’s 10 Things To See in New Zealand that You Won’t Read About in Brochures

You’ve heard about mud pools and Maori hakas but have you heard about where they shot the Narnia film? Or where to find Mt Mordor?

10 More Things to See in New Zealand

Bra fences and Victorian architecture, and an Edinburgh of the Southern Hemisphere. There’s so much to see in New Zealand you can’t cover it in a quick three or four day trip.

Wild Food

Whitebait fritters, lambs’ testicles and horse semen shots. There’s something for everyone at the West Coast’s Wild Food Festival held each year in March in Hokitika. Have you the balls to try this wild food?

Lost and Found on the Coromandel

Beautiful deserted beaches, and a wonderful luxury tropical thermal spa. Let the stress float away in the surf, on the Coromandel coast.

Wet and Wild

You can not go to New Zealand’s South Island without seeing the beautiful Milford Sound. My advice is to try to go on the last small boat trip of the day and you’ll have a blast. Don’t forget your camera, or your towel.

Hard Men and Feijoa Vodka

Where else but in New Zealand would they play rugby in the nuddy? One of the best things about travelling NZ is the friendliness of the locals.
