A land of volcanoes, forests, snowy peaks and hot springs, New Zealand is as dramatic as it is diverse. Famed as the backdrop to Lord of the Rings, it’s a haven for outdoor adventure and natural beauty. Hike world-renowned trails, embrace adrenalinefuelled activities, or slow the pace with fine wines, fresh seafood and breathtaking scenic drives. Along the way, immerse yourself in Māori culture, meet unique wildlife and soak up landscapes you never forget.
Highlights not to be missed! • Wildlife encounters with a Kiwi, Gannet, Kea and the Little Blue Penguin • Taste world-class wines, craft beers and ciders • A traditional Māori hāngī dinner • Local artisan treats at farmer’s markets to Michelin star restaurants • Geothermal wonders with geysers, effervescent mud pools and hot springs
New Zealand is a place that calls you back again and again, the perfect blend of adventure, serenity and wonder.

Explore New Zealand, the ‘land of the long white cloud’
Weather
Hike like Frodo Baggins to Mordor (Tongariro National Park) for incredible views of snow-capped mountains or walk along the Fox and Franz Josef Glaciers. Exploring New Zealand on a motorhome or caravan means that you can experience as much of the island as possible in one trip!
Auckland, North Island Climate
The weather in New Zealand can be unpredictable so you can experience four seasons in one day! The far north has subtropical weather during summer, while inland areas of the South Island can be as cold as -10°C in winter. Generally, the temperatures are mild because most of the country lies close to the coast.

The Supplier/ Principal may charge the cancellation or amendment charges shown in their booking conditions (which may be as much as 100% of the cost of the Arrangements and will normally increase closer to the date of departure). Please note: some Supplier/Principals do not allow changes and therefore full cancellation charges will apply. 8. Changes and Cancellations by the Supplier/Principal The Supplier/Principal will inform you as soon as reasonably possible if the Supplier/ Principal needs to make a significant change to your confirmed Arrangements or to cancel them. We have no liability to you in these circumstances. 9. Our Responsibility for your Booking Your contract is with the Supplier/Principal and its booking conditions apply. As promoter of the holidays, we accept no responsibility for the actual provision of the Arrangements. We accept no responsibility for any information about the Arrangements that we pass on to you in good faith. However, in the event that we are found liable to you on any basis whatsoever, our maximum liability to you is limited to twice the cost of the commission we earn on your booking (or the appropriate proportion of this if not everyone on the booking is affected). We do not exclude or limit any liability for death or personal injury that arises as a result of our negligence or that of any of our employees whilst acting in the course of their employment. 10. Visa, Passport and Health Requirements The Supplier/Principal can provide general information about the passport and visa requirements for your trip. Your specific passport and visa requirements, and other immigration requirements are your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates. Neither we nor the Supplier/Principal accept any responsibility if you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport, visa or immigration requirements. Please note that these requirements may change between booking and departure. Most countries now require passports to be valid for at least 6 months after your return date. Please take special note that for all air travel within the British Isles, airlines require photographic identification of a specific type. Please ask the Supplier/Principal for full details. They can provide general information about any health formalities required for your trip but you should check with your own doctor for your specific circumstances. 11. Complaints Because the contract for your Arrangements is between you and the Supplier/ Principal, any queries or concerns about your Arrangements should be addressed to them. If you have a problem with your Arrangements whilst using them, this must be reported to the Supplier/Principal immediately. If you fail to follow this procedure there will be less opportunity for the Supplier/Principal to investigate and rectify your complaint. The amount of compensation you may be entitled to may therefore be reduced or extinguished as a result. If you wish to complain when you return home, write to the Supplier/Principal. You will see their name and contact details in any confirmation documents they send you. We will of course assist you with this if you wish – please contact us. You may wish to consider using Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). The Supplier/ Principal are a member of ABTA and are obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you by ABTA’s Code of Conduct. They can also offer you ABTA’s scheme for the resolution of disputes which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute. If they can’t resolve your complaint, go to www.abta.com to use ABTA’s simple procedure. Further information on the Code and ABTA’s assistance in resolving disputes can be found on www.abta.com. If you wish to complain about any service we have provided to you then please contact us directly. 12. Law and Jurisdiction These Terms & Conditions are governed by English law and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction (unless you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland, in which case you can bring proceedings in your local court under Scottish or Northern Irish law, as applicable). 13. Final Travel Arrangements Please ensure that all your travel, passport, visa and insurance documents are in order and that you arrive in plenty of time for checking in at the airport. It may be necessary to reconfirm your flight with the airline prior to departure. If you fail to reconfirm you may be refused permission to board the aircraft and you are unlikely to receive any refund. 14. Accommodation Ratings and Standards All ratings are as provided by the relevant Supplier/Principal. These are intended to give a guide to the services and facilities you should expect from your accommodation. Standards and ratings may vary between countries, as well as between suppliers. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of any ratings given. 15. Documentation & Information All descriptions and content on our website or otherwise issued by us is done so on behalf of the Supplier/Principal in question and are intended to present a general idea of the services provided by the Supplier/Principal. Not all details of the relevant services can be included on our website. All services shown are subject to availability. If you require any further details, in respect of any Arrangements or any other services please contact us. 16. Financial Protection All the package holidays sold by the Supplier/Principal come with protection for your money. If you buy a single travel service then this might not apply. Package holidays are protected by the package organiser (which will be the Supplier/Principal) and they will provide you with their confirmation. When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from them you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong.
