It’s no wonder that 30% of New Zealand is natural reserves. The diverse and stunning scenery across its North and South Islands is sprinkled with turquoise lakes under snow-capped mountains, dramatic fiords and glaciers, golden beaches and tropical forests. Its natural beauty, along with its liberal and friendly culture, makes it one of the best countries for traveling.
