Four Things to Do in New Zealand

Whale Watching Tour

You can’t go on New Zealand gap year without seeing any wildlife. One of the best ways to do this is on a whale-watching tour. You go on a boat in search of whales. If you’re lucky, you might even see some jumping out of the sea!

Lord of the Rings Tour

From the famous Mount Doom to the Hobbit Holes ... if you liked The Lord of the Rings, New Zealand has the tour for you! The scenery and sets in the film are amazing. And guess what? They look even better in real life!

 for the adrenaline junkies out there.

Four Things to Do in New Zealand

Bungee Jumping

If you’ve never bungee jumped before but you’re ready to take a jump, why not do it from the Kawarau Bridge? The 43-meter jump will get your heart racing! It’s the number 1 attraction for the adrenaline junkies out there.

Auckland

If you’ve had enough of nature and the outdoors, you can go to Auckland. It is the largest city in New Zealand. There are lots of shops, restaurants and clubs. You can also go to cultural events like theatre, concerts and operas.

What changes after your first hongi greeting?

Australia

Canberra is the capital city

Cities like Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney and Perth are all bigger than Canberra

In the middle of the country is the Outback, that area has VERY few people living in it.

Aboriginals

The first people in Australia that came from Africa are called Aboriginals. The people like to refer to themselves using their tribe name, though. They live in harmony with nature, because they believe that nature is a gift. They invented boomerangs and play music on didgeridoos. You can recognize Aboriginals by the drawings on their skin. 

Ready for your SO on Friday (the 13th)?
