Description

Known as the Garden City, Christchurch is located on the east coast of the South Island and is the second largest city in New Zealand. It is situated in the province of Canterbury, which represents the heart of the South Island, from Aoraki-Mt Cook, New Zealand’s highest peak, to the eco-tourism centre of Kaikoura.

The Canterbury region encompasses over 100 vineyards. The region’s highlights include the alpine spa village at Hanmer Springs, Arthur’s Pass and Mt Cook National Parks, stunning wildlife and marine life, glacial lakes and natural thermal pools.

Take a trip to New Zealand’s most famous Alpine region and view the splendour of Aoraki Mt Cook, the highest point in the country and one of the most stunning aspects of the Southern Alps.

Located alongside the shores of the crystal clear Lake Wakatipu, in the Southern Lakes region, the sophisticated holiday resort of Queenstown is known as the Adventure Capital of the World. It offers opportunities to go sky diving, bungy jumping and jet boating. Snow-clad mountains loom dramatically over Queenstown in the winter months. The Southern Lakes scenery and culture has inspired Hollywood movie makers, and poets, artists, authors, musicians and every sort of adventurer and visitor.
