Planning a New Zealand holiday
Start with the green hills of Hobbiton and Rotorua's geothermal valleys, then the volcanic landscapes of Tongariro. On the South Island, Queenstown sits on its alpine lake, and Milford Sound's cliffs plunge into dark water. A self-drive or a chauffeured trip both work wonderfully.
