12 Best Things To Do In New Zealand

2.) Visit the adrenaline-fuelled, Queenstown

Also on the Southwest side of South Island is Queenstown. Another city, a totally different experience. Queenstown is the country’s adventure capital, so stop off here to get your adrenaline fix with a skydive or bungee jump.

You can even try the Shotover Canyon Swing, the world’s highest cliff jump.

If you visit in winter or spring and you’re not so much of an adrenaline junkie, you can also check out Queenstown’s famous ski scene. It’s a pretty fun place to visit and one of the best things to do in New Zealand if you love thrills!
