Polynesian settlers reached New Zealand around the thirteenth century, and British colonisation followed from 1840. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country. New Zealand has a temperate maritime climate, so summers are mild and winters rarely bring snow at low altitude.

Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands. Visitors arriving from Queenstown can reach Glenorchy by road, while those coming from Christchurch, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau or Kaikoura cross longer stretches of the South Island.
