With its spectacular waterfalls, fantastic beaches, and magnificent mountains, it is probably on your bucket list for a long time. This article is not going to suppress your itchy feet because we also know New Zealand is considered the top most beautiful country in the world. Both the south and north Islands offer lots of activities and heaps of natural wonders to explore.

Do US Citizens Need Visa

Those who are planning to stay more than ninety days or want to travel to New Zealand for other purposes need a proper visa to visit.
