From rafting to shopping in an Art Deco city center, it’s all sleek to chic in the stylish “Nice of the Pacific.”
Picton
Glacial mountains, waterways, and charming villages provide the perfect backdrop to sip on the region’s famed white wines.
Wellington
One of the world’s top food and wine destinations, Wellington is also an outdoor-lover’s haven with its legendary geography.
Sydney
