Bay of Islands Holding Dolphins

Between the rugged and undulating mountain roads, we enjoy the passion of speed and the visual feast. In 1840, the British colonists and the Maori signed the Treaty of Waitangi here, and it was also the place where New Zealand declared its independence. This place is full of the collision of Maori culture and British culture. Hidden between the silver fern forest of the national tree is the Maori Cultural Center, which tells the life of the Maori people and their belief in gods. The old building where the contract was signed still exists on the top of the hill. Of course, the classic British building with wooden structure is also indispensable to the back garden. The roses in the garden are particularly attractive. Before you enter, you can already smell the strong fragrance of flowers. There is a row of wooden sculptures standing by the coastline. It is said that they are the incarnation of the Maori sea god, used to bless those who go out to sea. We got on the yacht and shuttled between hundreds of islands. Dolphins beside the boat chased our yacht. You can ask the crew to arrange to swim with dolphins in the sea, or even touch the dolphins with your fingers. The crew said that whales are rarely seen in this season, but we were very lucky to see three huge whales in the distance of the yacht!

Queenstown Challenges the Limit

You can take a flight to Queenstown on the South Island from Kerikeri Airport in the Bay of Islands. Queenstown, surrounded by mountains and water, is the most common scenery in New Zealand postcards. Queenstown at the foot of the mountain faces lakes on both sides. The light gray-blue lake water is obviously formed by the melting snow water of glaciers. Taking the cable car, we climbed to the peak of Queenstown. Overlooking the lake, you can see the beauty of Queenstown. You can choose to go down the mountain on an exciting and environmentally friendly sled. The sled, which relies only on gravity, has only brakes and is more exciting than the go-kart on the track. In addition to seeing the scenery in Queenstown, you can also challenge extreme sports-jet boats, rafting, and the world-famous bungee jumping. These sports challenge our heartbeats, and breathing the breath of mountains and rivers quickly makes people excited. In addition, Queenstown is also a wine resort in New Zealand. The nearby Gibbston Valley has the longest wine cellar in New Zealand, producing fruity and delicate Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris. Drinking Queenstown wine and breathing the pure air, you will feel that life is so beautiful.
