Around New Zealand

New Zealand is south and fairly close to Australia and sits alone in the Pacific Ocean. The island is split into two islands, North and South Island, with other smaller islands surrounding the two larger islands.

Auckland

Visit the local vineyards, with a diverse geographical landscapes, head south and catch the Picton ferry to South Island. With it being isolated, some would say it is set in a time warp. For example, at weekends in Auckland with its modern business building, it is common to to see the locals driving through the city streets in pickups with hunting dogs in the rear.

Whilst Auckland and other places are not happening places, the countryside scenery, food and wine etc, more than make up for the lack of nightlife.

Wellington

Most of people tend to think of Auckland as the the capital city of New Zealand, when in fact it is Wellington and it has the added virtue of being the most southern capital city in the world. Skiing is possible in mountain ranges that surround Wellington.

Christchurch

The city continues to recover from the fairly recent earthquakes, so Christchurch definitely warrants a visit, as plenty to do and see.
