As a country in the southern hemisphere, New Zealand is home to breathtaking diversity. It can also be divided mainly into the South and North Islands, both of which offer their very own advantages and can be explored extensively on a road trip. You will notice that the climate varies throughout New Zealand when travelling by motorhome. This ranges from subtropical in the north to temperate in the rest of the country, which characterises the landscape with lush rainforests, rugged coastlines and snow-capped mountains. However, New Zealand is not only known for its incredible nature, which is characterised by impressive fjords, majestic mountains, vast beaches and picturesque lakes. The country also shines with cultural diversity thanks to the heritage of the Maori, the indigenous people of New Zealand. Their traditions and customs are deeply rooted in New Zealand society and offer visitors fascinating insights into a distant culture.
