Explore the vibrant Cuba Street, visit Te Papa (our national museum), and make sure to ride the cable car for views that’ll leave you saying, “Wow, that’s a bit breathtaking, aye?”
3. Christchurch
The Garden City is blooming marvellous! After its recovery from the quakes, Christchurch is now a mix of history and innovation. Stroll through the beautiful Botanic Gardens or take a punting trip on the Avon River—who knew relaxing on a boat while sipping a drink could feel so posh? Just watch out for any ducks trying to steal your chips!
4. Queenstown
Adventure junkies, rejoice! Queenstown is where adrenaline meets stunning landscapes. Whether you’re bungee jumping off a bridge or sipping on local Pinot Noir, you’re in for a treat. And if you’re looking for some excitement, how about a scenic jet boat ride? You’ll zip across the water with heart-pounding speed and stunning views—perfect for those who love a good thrill!
5. Hamilton
Don’t underestimate Hamilton—this vibrant city is a treasure trove of surprises! Stroll through the stunning Hamilton Gardens, where every corner reveals a new themed paradise.
