New Zealand travel
guides
New Zealand travel guides are plentiful and varied,
but if you want to get the most out of your journey to New Zealand
you should compliment it with the best New Zealand travel guide
you can find. The following New Zealand travel guides come recommended
by us and our readers and are great resources for planning and
getting the most out of your journey around New Zealand. In association
with Amazon we're able to offer these publications in new or 'pre-loved'
(second hand) versions which means you can pick them up quite
cheaply or, if you buy new, you have a facility to sell them on
after you're done travelling (although you can't beat a good,
worn, well-thumbed traveling guide book as a souvenir of your
travels in New Zealand).

 Rough
Guide to New Zealand - While the Rough Guide series
of books may not have the cult personality of say, Lonely

worthwhile – if you follow their trail you won’t
be doing the same thing that every other backpacker is doing.
The RG to New Zealand is a comprehensive and easy-to-read
breakdown of all the attractions and offerings that New
Zealand has. In addition to the usual information on accommodation,
activities etc, there is also good information on adventure
sports and hiking trails – and the latest edition
covers everything you need to know about Lord of the Rings
locations as well. With color photographs and good maps,
the RG to New Zealand is a good purchase for those intending
to experience more of the NZ outdoors. Click here for more information
