With all this, New Zealand is almost a safe country: a friendly attitude towards tourists, a low crime rate, water that can be drunk from the tap, the absence of poisonous reptiles or animals dangerous to human life, environmentally friendly meat and milk.
Since the country is located in the subtropics, the warmest time is January. What you need to pay attention to the tourist who arrived in New Zealand for the first time, because it is impossible to cover the whole range of entertainment presented in one trip.

The lake is known for its wonderful fishing. In addition, tourists are presented with a lake cruise, rafting on mountain rivers and flying by plane over an active volcano.
However, the most important holiday destination in New Zealand is extreme tourism. The local population is crazy about extreme entertainment, of which there are a huge number in the country. For example, Queenstown is even called the “city of madmen.” The most common types of extreme sports in New Zealand are “bungee jumping” – bungee jumping, tobogganing – downhill rides on special devices, air rides, downhill mountain river rides on a very fast boat, rafting at a depth of about 100 meters along cave rivers, heliboarding – skiing on a snowboard using a helicopter.

As for the cuisine of New Zealand, the Anglo-Saxons left the main trace here. In local cafes and restaurants, guests will primarily be served fish or meat with fried potatoes. The choice in terms of meat is small: roast beef or steak. While New Zealand is an island, the seafood situation is quite tense. A local culinary specialty is Baked Kumara Sweet Potato. Also, the country produces many varieties of first-class cheese, as well as beer and wine, and these alcoholic beverages are considered one of the best in the world. And how do you like a cafe with that name?
In New Zealand, almost everything has a quality mark. Including local hotels. Here, service always matches the number of stars. In addition to classic hotels, “lodges” are also common – hotels that are located in nature.
