KATRIN RUMMER Australasia Product Manager, Travel 2 “New Zealand is
unique for its array of outdoor sports, stunning landscapes including raw and rugged coastlines, glaciers, lakes, mountains, volcanoes, geysers, vineyards and beautiful beaches plus a rich cultural diversity and amazing Kiwi hospitality.”
BEN HODGSON STA Travel, Birmingham “I have been to New Zealand three times, and
twice in the last two years – two years ago to the North Island and last November to the South Island, where we did a heli-hike and landed right at the top of Franz Josef Glacier and did some hiking. Christchurch was very sad because there’s a dearth of people, but
Clockwise from left: the South Island's west coast; the Martinborough wine region; Pureora Forest; the Dar River, Glenorchy
everywhere is open and it is still a beautiful city, despite the areas cordoned off. New Zealand is a very easy sell, especially when you have been and can talk about it from experience. It has so much going for it: natural beauty, adventure, sport and the way of life, and your money goes a lot further than it does in Australia. It’s a real mix of clients who go there. We have just booked a couple in their sixties who were going only to Australia. I said why not add on New Zealand, so they are now also going to Auckland for a few days. ”
