With landscapes ranging from the subtropical to the subantarctic, unique Māori culture, and historic towns, New Zealand has it all; and there’s no need to choose between them with one of our New Zealand multi centre holidays. Experience the white sandy beaches and crystal clear seas one day, and the jaw dropping geysers, glaciers, and fiords the next, with visits to national parks, world renowned vineyards, and rainforests in between. It’s not just the nature worth visiting either; New Zealand’s cities offer endless options of extreme sports for thrill seekers, and incredible wine and cuisine for the foodies. With so much to see and do, it can be hard to know where to start. Check out our popular New Zealand holiday packages below or get in touch for a New Zealand itinerary that’s bespoke to you.
New Zealand’s highlights are spread between two main islands, each offering its own unique experiences. A multi-centre holiday allows you to link them together, making the most of your long journey from the UK. On the North Island you can explore geothermal landscapes, vibrant cities and rich Māori culture, while the South Island delivers dramatic mountain scenery, fjords, glaciers and world-class adventure activities. With excellent road, rail and air connections, it is easy to combine both islands and enjoy a holiday that is as varied as it is unforgettable.
Start in Auckland, where you can sail its harbours or climb the Sky Tower for panoramic views. In Rotorua, discover Māori traditions, watch a haka performance, and visit bubbling geysers and hot springs. Venture to Hobbiton to step into the world of The Lord of the Rings, or head north to the Bay of Islands for dolphin-spotting cruises. On the South Island, ride the TranzAlpine train through the Southern Alps, take a helicopter trip over Franz Josef Glacier, or cruise through the spectacular fjords of Milford Sound. Queenstown offers bungee jumping, jet boating and vineyard tours, while Dunedin reveals Scottish heritage and rare wildlife on the Otago Peninsula.
The most popular time to visit New Zealand is from November to March, when days are warm and ideal for outdoor activities. Spring, from September to October, offers mild weather and blossoming landscapes, while April and May bring autumn colours and fewer crowds. June to September is perfect for skiing.
Yes. Many travellers combine New Zealand with Australia, making the most of the long journey from the UK to see both countries in one trip. The South Pacific islands, including Fiji, Tahiti and the Cook Islands, are also popular choices, offering the perfect beach escape after exploring New Zealand.
You do not need a visa for multi centre holidays in New Zealand that are less than 6 months, however you will need to apply for a NZeTA (New Zealand Electronic Travel Authority).
There are no direct flights from the UK to New Zealand. With stopovers, usually at Singapore or Dubai, it takes around 24 hours.

Booked with him again this week to South America and he managed to upgrade us to ocean view room in one place…
