3. WAIHEKE ISLAND
Waiheke Island is one of the jewels of the Hauraki
Gulf. It is only a 40 minute ferry ride from the
whirlpool of downtown Auckland.
There are numerous places to enjoy good coffee or
savor the fresh New Zealand cuisine of the Pacific
Rim. On the island, there are also more than a
dozen vineyards of excellent quality, and many of
them have quiet restaurants. Taste the local wine
as you gaze at the vine-covered valleys and the
blue ocean in the distance.

4. RANGITOTO ISLAND
Rangitoto is the mysterious dark island that
stalks Auckland's inner gulf. This huge volcano
erupted about 600 years ago.
Rangitoto is Auckland's most iconic island,
with its distinctive symmetrical cone and
excellent location just off the coast. With just a
very short scenic ferry ride that passes
through the harbor from central Auckland.

5. AUCKLAND DOMAIN
The beautiful Wintergardens gardens, opened
in 1913, consist of two large greenhouses
displaying plants from temperate or tropical
zones. Between the greenhouses is an
enclosed courtyard with a fishpond, fountains,
and classic marble statues.
At the top of Domain Hill is the Auckland
Museum with its impressive architecture, a
large neo-Greek building opened in 1929.

7. This activity is about a scenic ride on the
iconic Gandola skyline climbing the steepest
cable car in the southern hemisphere, it is
around meters above Queenstown and Lake
Wakatipu with an excellent 220 degree view
of Coronet Peak, The Remarkables, Walter
and Cecil Peak, while taking the spectacular
view you can have dinner at the Stratosfare
restaurant

8. It is the city that had on a commercial level,
the first bungy jumping in the world, located
on the Kawarau Bridge. The fall distance is
43 meters, and if they want they can even
put half a body (or even more) in the water
when they fall

9. The landscaped gardens include plenty of
places to sit down and admire the beauty of
the gardens. Pristine lawns, a large water
feature, a wide variety of trees and plants
and a rose garden all combine to provide
that perfect escape from downtown
Queenstown. The gardens also feature a
couple of significant memorials.
The gardens are a popular place to take a
picnic, relax with friends and family and
enjoy the views of Lake Wakatipu. The most
visible tree is the Douglas Fir which
provides a protective cover around the
gardens and seclusion from the lively
downtown area of Queenstown.

10. Mordor Engraver at the
Tongariro Alpine Crossing

11. Billed as “New Zealand's best day trekking,”
the Tongariro Alpine Crossing is both a
marvel in sight and a challenge to your
fitness. During 7 or 8 hours of walking you
will cross desolate areas, volcano craters,
sulphurous lakes, volcanic fumaroles and
you will even end the route crossing
rainforest forests. All this under the shadow
of the imposing "Mount of Destiny" of
Mordor. For the bravest, climbing to the top
is possible, but remember to keep a close
watch on the ring. This route is a visual
delight, you can't miss it!

Frodo and Bilbo
in Hobbiton

13. Who has not wanted to visit the region at some time?
It is in New Zealand, of course. Enter a perfectly
guided tour through the 42 Hobbit holes built taking
care of every last detail, walk the paths and the old
bridge next to the mill to end up enjoying an
authentic pint of beer in the "Green Dragon Tavern".
Your camera will smoke!

14. Visit the caves lit
by thousands
of
glowworms in Waitomo

15. If you have ever wanted to see a starry sky within the
bowels of the earth, this is your place. In total
darkness, aboard a boat rocked by the sound of the
underground water, look up to the sky to see
thousands of glowworms shining on the ceiling of the
cave like stars in the sky. These are small luminescent
worms, but who knows, maybe you can even identify
constellations.

16. Marvel at the amazing Milford Sound
Ice Age glaciers sculpted breathtaking scenery
at Milford Sound. Surrounded by green cliffs
and walls that go up to more than 1000
meters, you will visit this fjord by boat,
marveled by the infinite waterfalls that fall
from a thousand places to reach the sea,
especially after the habitual and intense rains
