Goodbye winter blues, hello New Zealand summer in December!
If, to you, vacation means clear water and sunny days, then a trip to New Zealand in December should be high on your list. Take a sunrise dip in Lake Wakatipu, brave a jetboat ride down the Shotover River and trek the Blue Pools Track along Haast Pass to see water so blue it looks fake (but we promise it’s real). Want to unwind on vacation? We don’t blame you. Cool down at one of Wanaka’s wineries and take in the views without having to work for it.
