North Island road trips

ROAD trips showing off large parts of the central and upper North Island are the latest adventures tempting Australians across the ditch.

A partnership between Tourism New Zealand, regional tourism organisations (RTOs) and key trade partners has produced sample itineraries highlighting the attractions centred on and around four main routes.

Tony Saunders, Tourism New Zealand’s Manager, Australia says: “This is about encouraging Australians to explore more of the North Island, to see different places and to travel in the off-peak months. It’s a perfect time to enjoy outdoor holiday experiences.

The four routes being promoted are Twin Coast Discovery Highway between Auckland and Northland, the Pacific Coast Highway taking in the Coromandel and Bay of Plenty, the Thermal Explorer Highway through Rotorua, Hamilton and Waikato and the Volcanic Loop around Ruapehu and Lake Taupō.
