Best Places to Visit in New Zealand

As there are hundreds of towns in New Zealand, and it’s hard to decide which are the best places to visit. Here you will find our list, from North to South to keep it simple, of the 10 best places to visit in New Zealand.

Cape Reinga

The very top of the North – locally known as Te Hiku-o-te-Ika (the tail of the fish) – is where the Cape Reinga Light house it located. Looking over the meeting of both the Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea, the Maori believe this to be a very spiritual place.

Cathedral Cove

Located on the Coromandel Coast is Hahei. Either take a one hour stroll along the coast or enter by boat to this wonder of nature – a natural arched cave resembling a cathedral. A perfect spot for that Instagram selfie.

Matamata

Nestled among the rolling hills of this farmland town is the home of the Hobbits – Hobbiton the movie-set – running hourly there’s plenty of opportunity to get your Lord of the Rings fix.

Waitomo

With 4 amazingly different caves to see, this is a must do attraction for all. Relax on a Waitomo cave experience or go all out and abseil into the St Benedict Cavern.

Wellington

The Capital of New Zealand, Wellington is the hub of fashion, food and politics. The Te papa Museum, Botanic Gardens and the uber cool hidden cafes are sure to give you a taste of everything this city has to offer.

Marlborough

Wine. What more can we say?

Abel Tasman

Secluded sandy beaches and coves this is the perfect spot for hiking and cruises. With trails for art and crafts and plenty of wineries, you’ll be plenty busy hanging with the cruisy likeminded locals’.

Glaciers

With hundreds if not thousands of glaciers in New Zealand, the biggest glacier attraction would be on the West Coast; Fox Glacier and Franz Josef. These slow moving ice rivers have been around since the birth of New Zealand.

The Sounds

The Milford Sound and the Doubtful Sound (both spectacular in their own right) hidden away far down south. Both being wonders, it’s hard to choose one from the other.
