Christchurch sits on the east coast of the South Island, with Queenstown, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau and Kaikoura all reachable across the island. First-time visitors should expect a compact suburban setting rather than a central-city dining room.

Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August. The Southern Alps run down the South Island, and the North Island has a volcanic plateau with hot springs and geysers.

Ferries reach Waiheke, the Hauraki Gulf islands and Stewart Island, and a Cook Strait service links the two main islands. Polynesian settlers reached New Zealand around the thirteenth century, and British colonisation followed from 1840.
