The Great Lake, Taupo
Taupo has the best of the best when it comes to cultural and fishing experiences. For fishing enthusiasts, look no further than the spectacular Great Lake Taupo - the largest freshwater lake in Australasia. You can fish for trout all year round in Taupo and January and February are particularly good months for fly fishing. We recommend Chris Jolly Outdoors for all your Taupo hunting, fishing and adventure needs.
Fiordland, National Park
Awarded World Heritage status for its breathtaking natural beauty, exceptional glamour and significant role in showing off the earth’s evolutionary history, Fiordland is an absolute dream. Enjoy a day trip from Queenstown to Milford Sound, or an overnight escape to Doubtful Sound to get a true feel for this majestic region.
Queenstown, South Island
From wine tours and tastings to bike rides, bungee jumping and sky diving, it is clear to see why Queenstown is held in such high regard by tourists worldwide. It has played host to the biggest blockbuster movies (Lord of the Rings, X-Men: Wolverine, The Hobbit and Netflix's Sweet Tooth & The Letter for the King, to name a few), award-winning wines, dramatic views and some of the most luxurious accommodation options available anywhere. Only a two hour flight from Auckland Airport, and with direct flights to Sydney and Melbourne, it is the perfect place to escape.
