About New Zealand
New Zealand is a country in the southwestern Pacific Ocean consisting of two main islands, both marked by volcanoes and glaciation. Capital Wellington, on the North Island, is home to Te Papa Tongarewa, the expansive national museum. Wellington’s dramatic Mt. Victoria, along with the South Island’s Fiordland and Southern Lakes, stood in for mythical Middle Earth in Peter Jackson’s "Lord of the Rings" films. Across Cook Strait, the South Island's crags and fiords – including Milford Sound with its 1,200m vertical sides – invite skiing, bungee jumping and trekking. Rotorua is known for its natural hot springs and geysers, and its Māori Arts and Crafts Institute of Te Puia chronicles the history and culture of the indigenous Maori people. Marlborough's vineyards produce distinctive Sauvignon Blancs and Pinot Noirs. Auckland, known for sailing, is nicknamed the "City of Sails." The nation’s rugby union team, the All Blacks, traditionally dominate world rugby.

A coastal paradise that you can walk through or explore by cruise boat, sailing catamaran, water taxi, or sea kayak, visitors love the way the Abel Tasman National Park mixes physical exertion with beach life. Bursts of hiking or paddling are punctuated by sunbathing, swimming, and sedate snorkelling.
