Frequently Asked Questions

BEFORE YOU BOOK

You’ve come to the right place. Whether you’re looking for advice, booking information or didn’t quite find what you’re looking for, we’re here to help.

When is the best time to travel?

The best time to visit New Zealand largely depends on your preferences and what you'd like to experience. New Zealand's climate varies from region to region, offering something unique in every season.

  • Spring (September to November): Spring offers mild weather and blossoming landscapes. It's a wonderful time for hiking, wildlife viewing, and seeing the native flora in full bloom.
  • Summer (December to February): This is the peak tourist season, characterised by warm weather, longer daylight hours, and a vibrant atmosphere. It's ideal for outdoor activities, hiking, beach trips, and exploring the stunning landscapes.
  • Autumn (March to May): Autumn brings pleasant temperatures and colourful foliage. It's a great time for wine tours, enjoying scenic drives, and experiencing fewer crowds.
  • Winter (June to August): Winter is the ski season in both the North & South Island, attracting snow sports enthusiasts.
Ultimately, the best time to travel depends on your interests so it's advisable to plan ahead and consider both the weather and activities you want to enjoy during your visit.
