What are the recommended itineraries/excursions in New Zealand?
New Zealand is divided into a North Island and a South Island, which can also be traveled separately. If you wish to explore both islands during your motorhome holiday in New Zealand, you will need to use the ferry that connects the two parts of the island.

Whether it is a self-drive motorhome or campervan, we have supplied several suggested itineraries, New Zealand.
What are New Zealand’s main attractions?
Cultural sites, lively nightlife, and beautiful nature in the immediate vicinity. If you are exploring New Zealand by motorhome, a visit to the metropolis of Auckland is a must. But the capital of New Zealand, Wellington, also scores points with its irresistible charm. Spectacular scenery and remarkable natural sites can be found en masse throughout the country. The picturesque 15-kilometer-long Milford Sound Fjord, located in the middle of Fjordland National Park, is particularly famous. Fantastic views are also offered around Lake Taupo, New Zealand’s largest lake.

When is the best time to travel to New Zealand?
New Zealand is truly on the other side of the planet. This means that the New Zealand winter is our summer. As the North and South Islands have different temperatures, the optimal travel time is also different. On the South Island, it can be freezing in winter (June to August). It is, therefore, not the right time to explore the spectacular natural landscapes of southern New Zealand. However, a winter holiday in the country’s famous ski resort is a good idea at this time of year.

The 200 km in New Zealand cannot be compared to 200 km in Europe – the distances in New Zealand are slightly underestimated.
