A trip to New Zealand’s South Island will take you to the wildest and least inhabited part of the country. A true mosaic of landscapes and atmospheres, the South Island will offer you both the lively warmth of restaurant terraces along the Avon in Christchurch and the calm of the vast white-sand beaches of Abel Tasman National Park, as well as the mystery of the mist-shrouded fjords of Milford Sound. A stay on the South Island is an immersion in Maori culture and unique landscapes.
