Off to Sydney for a long weekend? One of my favourite experiences in Sydney is a Captain Cook weekend cruise.

Rail Cruising is new to Rotorua. Located in Mamaku, the business began in December 2011. The rail journey takes 2 hours and descends through rural scenery with some stunning bush vistas in the Dansey Scenic Reserve.

After watching the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel you might well be tempted to pack up your bags and go to India. But would it be the right destination for you?

Dunedin boasts some of the finest architecture in New Zealand. Dunedin railway station is one of the most photographed buildings in New Zealand.

With many airlines now charging extra for checked in luggage it is a great opportunity to experience the freedom of travelling light.

The flight into Queenstown would have to be one of the most scenic flights in New Zealand. As you descend for the final approach you feel like you can touch the side of the towering mountains.

One of New Zealand's most scenic train journeys is the Coastal Pacific from Christchurch to Kaikoura.

While in the historic French village of Akaroa last month I decided to do something I had never tried before - a side car ride.

One of my favourite cruises around New Zealand is on a vessel called "Affinity". The 16 passenger vessel operates cruises around Marlborough Sounds, Fiordland and Stewart Island.

Invercargill, The Southernmost City in New Zealand might seem like the back of beyond to most Aucklanders but it has a lot to offer as we discovered recently at the biannual gathering of the 69er Massey Veterinary Class.
