The spectacularly beautiful New Zealand landscape includes vast mountain chains, steaming volcanoes, sweeping coastlines, deep fiords and lush rainforests.
Comparable in size to Great Britain, Colorado or Japan, New Zealand has a population of only 4 million, making it one of the world's least crowded countries. It is a haven for those seeking peace, rejuvenation and relaxation as well as a playground for thrill seekers and adventurers. A temperate climate with relatively small seasonal variation makes New Zealand an ideal year-round holiday destination.
New Zealand has a rich and fascinating history, reflecting both our Maori and European heritage. Maori historic sites, some dating back almost a thousand years, are a contrast to many beautiful colonial buildings. A walk around any New Zealand city today shows what a culturally diverse and fascinating country we have become.
