Meticulously updated travel information for 44 regions of New Zealand

We provide complete guides to the North and South Islands to help even first-time visitors to New Zealand enjoy their time there.
Information that has changed over time has been updated meticulously, without missing even the smallest details.
From fast-changing cities to small towns where travel information is difficult to obtain, we've faithfully captured information on each of the 44 regions.

Also, although it is said to have been simplified, it is true that the number of documents required for overseas travel has increased, which is confusing for travelers.
We've made it easy for everyone to understand the necessary preparations for entry and exit, and since everyone's travel dates are different, we've even compiled a website where you can quickly find the most accurate information.

A variety of themed tours to enrich your trip

New Zealand is the place that will satisfy your camping dreams.
New Zealand is already famous as a campervan travel mecca, with campsites readily available at reasonable prices.
In addition, there are various activities such as trekking, cycling, and bungee jumping that can be enjoyed in beautiful nature.
And that's not all.
You can experience the uniqueness of New Zealand by experiencing the culture of the indigenous Maori people and encountering rare animals such as kiwis and yellow-eyed penguins.
You can enjoy unique experiences such as wine tasting at a winery, visiting filming locations that replicate scenes from movies, and finding inspiration while touring world-renowned Art Deco architecture.
《Real New Zealand》 generously provides tips and know-how on where and how to enjoy all these experiences, helping you enrich your trip to New Zealand.

Complete an efficient trip tailored to your own tastes.

New Zealand consists of two islands and is three times the size of South Korea.
Planning an itinerary that allows you to efficiently tour this vast place is no easy task.
Moreover, today's travelers seek a satisfying trip that suits their tastes.
This book introduces the best routes to discover New Zealand's core attractions in line with these travel trends, along with a variety of model routes reflecting interesting themes.
There are a variety of courses available, including visiting filming locations from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, exploring volcanic terrain, enjoying cultural and activities centered around the city, or stopping by a winery in a secluded landscape.
We've included both highlight courses for short-term travelers and one-week courses for long-term travelers.
Choosing and combining courses that suit your tastes will create the most efficient schedule.
As transportation information is very important for a trip to New Zealand, which involves a lot of movement, we provide helpful information on not only local public transportation but also inter-city and inter-island transportation.
