Summary: Travel writer Peter Janssen has travelled extensively around the North and South Island and here he shares special quirky experiences and sublime scenery that are known to locals but are most often bypassed by visitors heading to better-known attractions. Avoid the mass of tourists and stroll empty beaches, experience unusual sights and adventures and uncover the other side of New Zealand's history and landscape with this comprehensive guidebook. Divided into geographic areas of the North and South Island, each entry includes descriptions, history, directions, addresses and contact phone numbers where relevant. (Publisher)
