New Zealand Itinerary 7 Days

New Zealand Itinerary 7 Days

If you have just one week to see New Zealand, choose a New Zealand itinerary for 7 days from our list of top options.

New Zealand is a larger country than it looks, and the roads are narrow and winding, which means driving times can be long. With just a week to see New Zealand, you should choose either a New Zealand South Island itinerary for 7 days or a New Zealand North Island itinerary for 7 days.

The North Island is easy to see in a week. Our 7-day North Island holiday packages encompass most of the highlights, including Hobbiton, geothermal reserves, Maori cultural shows, and idyllic beaches. The Waitomo Glowworm Caves can also fit into a 1-week North Island holiday.

The South Island is trickier to see in just one week. You will need to pick and choose based on what you want from your holiday. Do you want to see as much as possible, no matter how much driving it requires? A loop from Christchurch down to Queenstown and back fits in all the major destinations, including Milford Sound, Franz Josef Glacier, Lake Tekapo, Mt Cook, and Queenstown. Or would you prefer a more relaxed itinerary? Choose which sites are at the top of your must-see list and we can help you decide which holiday package ticks all the right boxes.

And if you want to see both islands no matter what, we can make it happen with the 7 Day Iconic New Zealand Holiday Package, which includes a flight between islands.

Our 7-day itineraries include ski packages, Lord of the Rings tours, family holiday packages, golf packages, luxury and honeymoon packages, coach tours, and privately guided tours.
