Head to New Zealand for Your Honeymoon & Make Memories That'll Last for a Lifetime!

Queenstown is the outdoor adventure capital of New Zealand and this is where you land and begin your unforgettable New Zealand honeymoon. Settle in your hotel room today and enjoy the evening inside your hotel room or take a stroll around the city. You can also go out for a delicious dinner at either Madam Woo for some Asian flavours or at Botswana Butchery for some yummy steaks.

Framed by the meandering coves of Lake Wakatipu, and with one of the most scenic rivers of New Zealand flowing through it, the number of activities you can do in Queenstown are extensive. The most exciting of these are on the Kawarau River, whose milky white waters rushing and gushing offer bungee jumping, kayaking, jet boat rides and rafting.

Activities for the day: Bungee jumping at Kawarau Bridge and jet boat ride on Kawarau River.

Kawarau River is the most amazing river in Queenstown with fast-flowing rapids, standing waves and whirlpools and thus provides the best opportunities for some more exciting ventures such as white-water rafting and surfing. Your third day can be filled with some more adrenaline activities. The white-water rafting expedition can be one, which usually lasts for about four and half hours. And to make it even better, hop aboard a twin-engine turbine helicopter that will take you to the starting point of rafting.

Activities for the day: White-water rafting on Kawarau River and helicopter ride to reach the starting point of rafting.

On your fourth day, bid adieu to Queenstown and move onwards. The ride today takes you past some of the most stunning New Zealand landscapes. Alpine scenery welcomes you as you make your way past the Haast Pass and the swimmable waterfalls at every corner tempt you to just stop and dive in. The rugged West Coast of the glaciers gives you a glimpse of snowcapped mountains and white ice as far as the eye can see. You reach the tiny townships settled near the coast of Fox Glacier and spend the rest of the day New Zealand honeymoon cozying in the room or marvelling at the stunning views around you.

Fox Glacier is a 13km long ice river, fed by the four alpine glaciers. Flowing through the temperate forest landscape, this river is an amazing natural wonder that you just can't miss. The valley around the glacier, and the easy access to it gives an explorer the perfect opportunity to wander around this amazing spectacle. The scenic walks around the valley provide amazing views of the glacier from different angles. You can either chose to hike up to the glaciers that feed the river or take a helicopter ride to the top. After you reach the top, it's time for some fun! With snow boots and an ice pick in your hand, traverse through the blue ice crevasses and icy caves.

Activities for the day: Walking on a glacier and discovering the ice river of New Zealand.

After Fox Glacier, it's onward to a dramatic change of scenery.

Day 6 and 7: Abel Tasman National Park

From icy rivers and alpine mountains, it's time to ride north, past some of the most stunning scenery that New Zealand has to offer. Drive past routes with wind-swept beaches, stark sea cliffs dropping into the thundering ocean, and a mist that descends over the alps hugging you on the right. Navigating this thin strip of land between the ocean and mountains is as crazy as it can get. Driving further north, through the stunning Buller River Gorge, you come to the Abel Tasman National Park. It's a long tiring ride between Fox Glacier & Abel Tasman National Park, almost 14 hours on the road. It's best to start early and once you reach, just relax and soak your tired bodies in some hot water in the hotel.

A short distance from the Abel Tasman Coast Track, between Torrent Bay and Anchorage lies this beautiful natural rock pool, which is perfect for couples looking for some cozy time. Later, it's time for the beach, where you can choose to spend the entire day lazing around and getting wonderfully tanned. Or you can spend a few hours doing some light activities such as kayaking at Torrent Bay or cruising to the Kaiteriteri.
