Although larger than the UK, New Zealand has a population of just 4 million, which means that you really do have the opportunity to get away from it all. December, January and February are considered by many as the summer months, and are comparable to July and August in the UK, however the shoulder season months of November, March and early April can offer fantastic weather - but without the crowds. Amongst the benefits of travelling in this period are cheaper prices for flights, accommodation and transport.

Most first time visitors to New Zealand will be keen to visit well known regions such as the stunning northland region of the Bay of Islands and the geothermal wonderland of Rotorua also home to Maori culture. Heading south there is the opportunity to watch whales in Kaikoura or get adventurous in Queenstown home of the worlds first commercial bungy jump. That’s aside from the wine tasting, walking or simply cruising through outstanding scenery!

The options for getting around vary from the freedom of hiring a Motorhome to taking a comfortable guided coach tour. From good quality self-catering accommodation to luxurious lodges, Kirra Tours will tailor make a truly special itinerary for you.
