The main visiting places on the South Island
Queenstown
Suggested activities for Queenstown
Explore: Queenstown and its surrounds
Queenstown is celebrated as New Zealand's adventure capital and offers far more than a fast-paced, action-packed holiday. Settled on the shores of Lake Wakatipu beneath a soaring panorama of the Remarkables Mountain Range, this alpine town is surrounded by many historic, gastronomic, and scenic wonders.
Adventure: Bungy Jump
We have plenty of ways to find out if you've ever wanted to discover what is truly made of. So strap up at the World Home of Bungy, the Kawarau Bungy Centre, freestyle it up at the Ledge or stare fear in the face at the Nevis Playground.
Milford Sound
Suggested Activity
Nature: Milford Sound Cruise and Coach Tour
Get up close and personal with Milford Sound on a leisurely cruise of this spectacular fiord. Experience the spray of a thundering waterfall as you cruise close to sheer rock faces, marvel at sky-high mountains and see the lush rainforest. Informative, participative, and relaxed, this cruise is the perfect way to experience Milford Sound to the fullest.
Wanaka
Suggested activities for Wanaka
Explore: Wanaka
Wanaka draws those seeking adventure, spectacular scenery, and a relaxed atmosphere. Known as the gateway to Mt Aspiring National Park, it's a walker's paradise of remote wilderness, high mountains, and beautiful river valleys. Try skydiving, rock climbing, jet boating, or a scenic flight over Wanaka in a historic Tiger Moth aeroplane for those seeking an adrenaline rush.
Nature: Lake Wanaka Cruise and Island Walk
Lying close to the centre of Lake Wanaka is Mou Waho Island Nature Reserve. A unique glacial remnant of the last ice age, the island is also the historic site of early shipbuilding and was a stopping place for the steamers and log rafts that once plied the lake. A well-formed track leads from the landing and climbs steadily through native bush to the top of Tyrwhitt Peak. Just before the top, we see Arethusa Pool, a small lake with small islands on the island - very intriguing! From the top, enjoy a sweeping 360-degree view of Lake Wanaka.
Adventure: Wild Wanaka
Conquer the highest waterfall cable climb (Via Ferrata) in the world. Explore and climb Twin Falls – one of Wanaka's most spectacular waterfalls, just a short drive from Wanaka town centre at the gateway to Mt Aspiring National Park. Exploring these falls up close is an exceptional and truly memorable experience. Explore hidden pools, picnic next to high falls, and enjoy breathtaking mountain and lake views.
Franz Josef
Suggested activities for Franz Josef
Explore: Franz Josef Glacier
Franz Josef is a small but lively town in the heart of the West Coast, known for its 12 km-long glaciers. Lush rainforest-clad mountains surround the township, and it has a vibrant and bustling atmosphere. You can walk along the valley floor to the viewpoint below the terminal face to see the ice from a different perspective. However, you must take a licensed helicopter tour of the glacier. https://www.helicopter.co.nz/english/franz-josef

Christchurch
Suggested activities for Christchurch
Explore: Christchurch
New Zealand's garden city is steadily transforming into a vibrant urban destination. It encompasses a large green belt and is known for its wide tree-lined avenues and lush gardens. A great way to explore is to take the double-decker hop-on/hop-off bus for an easy way to see the sights. Os, head slightly out of town to the zip line or gondola for more dramatic views.

New Zealand's highest mountain. En route to Lake Tekapo, take a trip to the top of Mt. John to experience the feeling of being on top of the world. It boasts stunning 360-degree views of the Mountains and turquoise-coloured lakes.
