Boasting beautiful natural areas, diverse landscapes, and a raft of activities and attractions it is no surprise it is regularly voted as one of the globe's top travel destinations. However, with a plethora of websites, brochures and information centres, it's easy to become overloaded with the sheer quantity of information available on what to do. How then, outside of the marketing hype, does someone get the 'real oil' on the best things to do in each key New Zealand location? Travelling New Zealand solves this problem.  Professional guide Simon Henshaw has spent the past 10 years travelling the country, recommending to visitors the best things to do, both on and off the beaten track. He's pulled together his inside knowledge, providing the reader with a concentrated list of 'what's hot' in New Zealand's most rewarding destinations, including everything from walks, scenic spots and lookouts, to activities and attractions. Travelling New Zealand doesn't try to provide a comprehensive list of everything to do in an area, instead selecting only the finest offerings so the traveller can spend more time enjoying themselves, and less time sorting through the brochures. Every area is displayed using the latest generation of 3D mapping from GeographX. Through plotting the attractions on panoramic, aerial maps, a 'bird's eye' view is provided for each location and landscape. With many of New Zealand's most visited areas, such as Aoraki\/Mt Cook, Central Plateau, and Mt Taranaki based around stunning landforms, Travelling New Zealand provides a unique perspective on an area, as well as an inexpensive and stunning memento for any traveller.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49592051204369,"sku":"GOR005373160","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1877333662.jpg?v=1750964104"},{"product_id":"tramping-in-new-zealand-book-shaun-barnett-9781877333514","title":"Tramping in New Zealand","description":"Tramping in New Zealand is a highly innovative new tramping guide, that has been developed around the latest generation of 'bird's eye' computer-generated maps. These completely accurate panoramic overviews are constructed from map data, but because they can recreate a view of the landscape from any angle or height they provide a remarkably readable and clear way of understanding the lie of the land. For trampers, these bird's eye maps offer a superb way of showing a tramping route in three dimensions, which cannot be done with a conventional topographical map. In this book the 40 most popular tramps in New Zealand are featured, each illustrated with at least one bird's eye map. These have been created by Wellington company Geographx, whose cutting-edge maps feature in the acclaimed New Zealand Geographic Atlas. The maps are also supported by relevant route information and photographs from one of New Zealand's most respected tramping authors, Shaun Barnett.The tramps covered include our best known Great Walks, such as the Milford Track, the Routeburn and the Tongariro Crossing, and many others from both islands, such as the Queen Charlotte Track, the ReesDart near Queenstown, and the Pinnacles Hut on the Coromandel. With such a high degree of readability and visual appeal combined with the highest quality information and photographs, Tramping in New Zealand creates a new benchmark for this kind of guidebook, and is set to become a classic in this popular genre.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49606165954833,"sku":"GOR002420595","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49613245251857,"sku":"GOR012018060","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52816030990609,"sku":"CIN1877333514VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1877333514.jpg?v=1751379095"},{"product_id":"day-walks-in-new-zealand-book-shaun-barnett-9781877333675","title":"Day Walks in New Zealand","description":"Day walks are one of the most popular recreational activities in New Zealand, enjoyed by both New Zealanders and overseas visitors alike. In 2006 nearly half a million tourists completed either a half-day bush walk or a full day of trekking or tramping. This is not surprising given New Zealand hosts a highly accessible network of conservation and reserve areas, offering everything from leisurely 1-2 hour coastal and beach walks, to full on 8-hour plus days through lush beech forest and alpine areas, and everything in-between. Day Walks in New Zealand is the latest tramping guide in the innovative, new Bird's Eye Guide series. Written by Shaun Barnett, the best-selling author and photographer of Bird's Eye Guide Tramping in New Zealand, Day Walks in New Zealand also uses latest generation 'bird's eye' computer-generated maps, showing a tramping route in three dimensions something unable to be achieved with a conventional topographical map. Each walk is supported by relevant route information and there are full-colour photographs throughout from Shaun's own photo-library.Walks are selected from the entire country and include day walks suitable for first-timers and families, as well as options for those with a higher level of fitness and experience. The combination of maps, photography and writing from the country's leading tramping writer arguably makes this the best New Zealand day walk book available. Bird's Eye Guides continue to set a new standard in tramping and tourist publications.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50271387582737,"sku":"CIN1877333670G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50392105025809,"sku":"CIN1877333670A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50406931464465,"sku":"GOR005413652","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51915955208465,"sku":"GOR009726983","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53450029924625,"sku":"GOR014927198","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1877333670.jpg?v=1751440169"},{"product_id":"off-the-beaten-track-book-colin-moore-9781877517044","title":"Off the Beaten Track","description":"Off the Beaten Track is a tantalising guide to 20 multi-day walks across New Zealand farmland, through forest sanctuaries and along stretches of coastline - from the kauri-fringed bays of Great Barrier Island to the alpine tarns of Southland. While not all the walks featured here are over private land, what they do have in common is that in exchange for a modest payment, enthusiastic walkers can tramp or amble through New Zealand's hills and backcountry without a heavy pack, with a comfortable bed at the end of the day and fine dining if they wish. Suitable for people of all ages, these walks are proving popular with family groups, work groups and, particularly, baby-boomers who want to get out in the hills but do it in comfort and with minimal hassle. Each walk has its own distinctive character, whether it's coastal views, subalpine high country or rolling tussockland. Well illustrated with evocative photographs, each chapter also includes an informative bird's eye map, an ideal way to view the route and terrain in three dimensions. Off the Beaten Track is a must-have guide to an increasingly popular form of recreation and an attractive souvenir of a great experience.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52570453639441,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52570453737745,"sku":"GOR012747526","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781877517044.jpg?v=1760786920"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/bird-s-eye-guides-book-series.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
