Lonely Planet New Zealand

STICK OUT YOUR TONGUE – taste the freshest seafood, world-class wines, or the best lamb roast there is

ROLL YOUR EYES – yet another magnificent view of mystical mountains, braided river plains or calming coastlines

SLAP YOUR THIGHS – a good time’s easy to find, from happening Auckland to waterfront Wellington

STAND UP PROUD – and experience Maori culture firsthand: take part in a powhiri, or fill your puku at a hangi

RUN AT IT SHOUTING – bungy jump, sea kayak, surf, trek and hit the white water with the best of them
