Travel Tips to New Zealand
If you are planning a holiday to New Zealand, here are a few things that you’ll really need to be prepared.
Climate
New Zealand is a 4 season country. The north island is a lot warmer compare to the South. Always bring additional clothing and jackets.
New Zealand comes with an unpredictable unusual weather. It could be sunny when you’re having your lunch and when you’re wandering out from the restaurant, it started pouring! The weather conditions in New Zealand’s much like a women’s mind they said! Bring rain jackets or waterproof jackets to you, affordable umbrellas are useless because the wind are strong and I’ve given up on umbrellas after 2 were destructed because of the wind! Imagine that! Over the time, I’ve learn to check the weather daily using the webpage
Driving your car
Driving a car is legal in New Zealand if you’re holding a valid driver license from your country for the first 1 year visit to New Zealand. After that period, you’ll need to get a New Zealand driver license. The mileage between cities and other destinations of interest may take long hours of traveling as some of the roads will be hilly and narrow that you’ll needs to be really careful. I would suggest you to prepare some self driving time so that you get to really enjoy New Zealand’s landscape which are exciting. Try to look for brown and green signboard as these are the scenic stop. Also, it is not surprising if you ever struck on a few possum or even known as the road bumper here. During winter, many of driveways can be slippery so always be aware of the signs concerning the roads condition.
