- Stuart Landsborough's Puzzling World
Are you stuck for something to do with the kids? Sick of traipsing up mountains and admiring lakes? Check out Puzzling World, one of the quirkiest theme parks in existence.
- Abel Tasman National Park
The Abel Tasman National Park is a small but perfectly formed reserve boasting some of New Zealand's most stunning coastline. Quirky-shaped granite boulders where seals laze jut out of the crystalline, turquoise waters, tidal estuaries are the playgrounds for bottlenosed dolphin and the best of it can be enjoyed by taking New Zealand's most popular walk, Abel Tasman's three-day Coast Path.
- Fox Glacier & Lake Matheson
There are two particularly fabulous glaciers in New Zealand - Franz Joseph and Fox. However, Franz Joseph doesn't boast immediate proximity to one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, Lake Matheson, so Fox gets the top vote.
- Queenstown
Queenstown, self proclaimed adventure capital of the world, has without doubt earned its title. Birthplace of the bungee jump, everything from luge, jet-boating and hang-gliding to - of course - bungeeing or "simply" abseiling is on offer to the visitor. All activities take place either at the town or a few minutes' drive away. Set in an exquisite setting on the edge of giant Lake Wakatipu, and full of bars and restaurants, it has to be your top destination in the whole of South Island.
- Dart River & Valley
Take a jet boat up the Dart River for a truly magical experience. The river and valley, stretching from the far end of Lake Wakatipu, affords fantastic views, wide-open expanses of water, and, as the river narrows upstream, exciting mini-rapids to battle against. No wonder it was a favourite spot in the filming of Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings.
