Sydney to New Zealand Travel Guide
New Zealand has seen a huge rise in popularity – it now welcomes over 3 million international visitors a year.
That’s largely down to The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy, which revealed a country made up of everything from snow-dipped mountains and deep fjords to gently swooping countryside and glassy lakes.
The easy access also helps. New Zealand is a short flight away from Sydney, with direct routes taking off daily.
A flight from Sydney to New Zealand will take you straight to one of the cities – capital city Wellington, volcanic Auckland, or born-again Christchurch.
But they can just as easily double as launch pads for trips into the island nation’s otherworldly countryside. The North Island ticks off everything from the subtropical Bay of Islands to the alpine trails and Maori sites of Tongariro National Park.
Things don’t get any less dramatic on the South Island. Fiordland stars the peaks and rainforests of Milford Sound, while Mount Cook National Park lays out the massive Tasman Glacier.
