DescriptionThe popularity of the Lord of the Rings trilogy has significantly raised New Zealand's profile as a holiday paradise. New Zealand is ideal for travellers seeking outdoor adventure. Huge national parks comprise 30% of the country's land areas, including two World Heritage sites. The country is also world-renowned for its fishing, golfing, water sports, skiing and snowboarding opportunities. International visitor arrivals topped 2 million for the first time in November 2002 and overall international tourism to New Zealand increased 7% in 2002 over 2001, more than double the provisional global tourism growth estimate for 2002. |
