Planning a Self-Drive Holiday in New Zealand

Planning a Self-Drive Holiday in New Zealand

What's your idea of paradise? Beautiful beaches? Sunshine? Snow? Peace and tranquility? Friendly people? Gorgeous landscapes? No matter what you prefer, New Zealand has it. An island nation, New Zealand is surrounded by the Tasman Sea and the South Pacific Ocean. The ocean waters crash on both rocky cliffs and sandy beaches. Surfers enjoy access to a large coastline with tremendous swells. Most of the country has a mild climate, but snow lovers can hit the slopes in the South Island or explore the famous ice glaciers.

The people of New Zealand are renowned for their hospitality. The country has a low crime rate. It is so low, in fact, that the policemen do not regularly carry guns. Even the animals are friendly. New Zealand is a rarity in that it has no poisonous snakes or insects. It also has the most species of flightless birds, because, until Europeans came to New Zealand, there were no natural predators for walking birds like kiwis and penguins.

In essence, New Zealand is as close to paradise as you'll ever get.

When you decide to visit New Zealand, you'll want to choose a transportation option that allows you to explore all that this magnificent country has to offer. An obvious choice is to hire a campervan. Motorhome hire in New Zealand is a cost-effective option for backpackers, campers, and even travellers who prefer class and comfort. Campervan hire allows you to save money by combining your vehicle and accommodations. What's more, many motor home companies will provide you with everything you need for a comfortable holiday: kitchen utensils, laundry detergent, pillows, pillowcases, and bed linens.

With all that this country has to offer, where will you begin once you arrive in New Zealand? Although there are many self-drive options, one popular trip is to pick up your campervan in Christchurch and proceed to explore the South Island. Christchurch made international headlines due to the February 22, 2011 Christchurch earthquake. The city is recovering well and has plenty to offer tourists who wish to visit. Highlights of the city include wildlife cruises, canoe trips up the Avon River, and rides on the Christchurch Gondola. After a stay in Christchurch, many visitors will head to New Zealand's adventure headquarters, Queenstown. There you can kayak, go rafting, bungee jump, or hang glide. After your stay in Queenstown, head back north towards New Zealand's famous glaciers: Fox and Franz Josef. No visit to New Zealand would be complete without a hike to see the glacial blue ice. For those craving more adventure, you can take a helicopter ride over the glaciers or sky dive. Once you are satisfied and tired from your adventures, head back to Christchurch to return your campervan and head home.

So, what are you waiting for? Hire your campervan and head to New Zealand. We promise it will be the holiday of a lifetime. We welcome you to visit us in paradise.
