New Zealand Road Trip – January 2024

Join us on our road trip around the North and South Island of New Zealand, aka Aotearoa.

New Zealand, island country in the in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. It is the sixth-largest island country by area and lies east of Australia across the Tasman Sea and south of the islands of New Caledonia, Fiji, and Tonga. New Zealand is a land of great contrasts and diversity. Active volcanoes, spectacular caves, deep glacier lakes, verdant valleys, dazzling fjords, long sandy beaches, and the spectacular snowcapped peaks of the Southern Alps on the South Island. Fun fact: in the native Māori language, New Zealand is called Aotearoa.
