Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast. Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands. Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture, so a stop for a meal after a visit is straightforward.
