Book Description

September 5, 2006 Fodor's Gold Guides
Swim with the seals off eastern coasts, sip sauvignon blanc in Marlborough, bushwalk through the country's diverse and beautiful terrain, celebrate Matariki (the Maori New Year), or sail in the City of Sails (Auckland)–Fodor's New Zealand 2007 offers all these experiences and more! Our local writers have traveled throughout the country to find the best hotels, restaurants, attractions and activities to prepare you for a journey of stunning variety. Before you leave for your trip be sure to pack your Fodor's guide to ensure you don't miss a thing.

The San Francisco Chronicle sums it up best –"Fodor's guides are saturated with information."

- We frequently update our New Zealand guide, and we make every effort to bring you the most accurate and thorough book. Plus we provide timely updates about the area at Fodors.com.
- Unlike other travel books, Fodor's guides rely heavily on local experts who know the territory best–so you know you're seeing the real New Zealand.
- Includes unique, color photos that illustrate the country's history and local activities and a full-color, pullout map of New Zealand.
- We give you the planning tools you need to tailor your trip. We give options for all budgets. You make the choices.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Tips and Info's.., February 1, 2007
By 
Bruno Freitas (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fodor's New Zealand 2007 (Fodor's Gold Guides) (Paperback)
I have just got back from New Zealand, and got the 2006 guide with me...

And I must say that the good thing about these books are the tips they give on each city, and yes, it also gives an idea of the itinerary you can chose by the ammount of days you will be going to...

Even though NZ is a place fully prepared to be receiving tourists and Visitors Information centers just about everywhere in the country (for Real !!) and with plenty of information (that sometimes can cause confusion), the book was something that me and my wife always liked to read and get some of the tips.

The only drawback is that it does not point out at a Budget or even shoestring travel.. It is more on the medium to high profile by some of the guidance the book gives to you (about 80% of the time), but is a real good thing to take along.

We definitely liked it, and I could say that a lot of the tips we actually (restaurants, places to go..) followed and we satisfied with it.

You will like and for the price, it's worth to take at the trip.

And you will just love New Zealand... I bet you will !

:-)

3.0 out of 5 stars Eh, it's ok., January 27, 2007
By

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Fodor's New Zealand 2007 (Fodor's Gold Guides) (Paperback)
If you're looking for something that you can take along with you for reference, then this book is not it -- it's way too clunky. If you're COMPLETELY unfamiliar with the country, then this book is for you. If you're going to visit EVERY part of the country, then this book is for you. But if you're only going to do a city stay, or see one or part of one of the islands, then this book is NOT for you. If you already have your itenarary planned out, then this book is NOT for you. About the only thing that I liked about this book is that it gave me some ideas for side trips, and a map. Both of which I could have gotten when I arrived in New Zealand.

This review is from: Fodor's New Zealand 2007 (Fodor's Gold Guides) (Paperback)
This has been an excellent source of information for my friends and me. We are going to New Zealand next year and know nothing of the country. Since we are planning on visiting wineries, we were happy to find enough on the subject to start planning which ones are "musts" to see.
