New Zealand has a thriving Maori culture, which you can experience at Tamaki Maori Village on the North Island. Queenstown attracts adrenaline junkies with its bungee-jumping opportunities. For fans of the big screen, no trip to New Zealand is complete without stopping by the Hobbiton Movie Set in Matamata. You can also catch a ferry across Cook Strait to seek out more The Lord of the Rings landscapes at Wanaka and Queenstown, both on the South Island of New Zealand.
