10 Must-Do North Island Experiences! New Zealand Travel Tips [ Ep 02 ]

New Zealand Travel Tips Part 2 - Here's our Top 10 experiences, things to do and attractions to see in the North Island. ✪ Want the best New Zealand travel tips for your trip? Check out our ultimate NZ travel guide - danegerandstacey.com/nzguide ⬇ More Below ⬇
New Zealand travel planning is on the top of the list for a lot of people right now - regardless of if you're a Kiwi born and raised in NZ like us, now calling this place home or dreaming of visiting soon! As a travel destination New Zealand has so much to offer and there's pages of travel vlogs, Google results, travel articles and blog posts discussing what to do for the perfect holiday, or vacation if that's your term. To complicate planning, the North Island and South Island both offer their own unique adventures too.
We've spent the last year exploring New Zealand and sharing those experience through our travel vlogs here, but wit over 50+ episodes from NZ we're often asked about the highlights, the best attractions... "no but, like, what cannot be missed?!"
Last week we bought you a vlog on part 1 from the South Island, this week we're bringing you part 2 of our New Zealand travel tips series about our favourite experiences in the North Island. Each of these experiences features individually in one of our travel vlogs across our channel already and they're all listed out below. Price indications are tricky because they change a lot (some tours have changed too sadly following the big C-19) and there's often a good collection of different tour operators offering their own take on these experiences... either way, if you want to watch more, see who we traveled with, and enjoy a NZ travel vlog or 2:

    We're really inspired by how you edit your videos with the mix of voiceovers and live footage. I think it takes some of the pressure off when filming in the moment and allows you to enjoy it more. We also bought your guide to starting a digital nomad life and are working through it now -- keep up the good work and thank you for putting out great resources!

I don't want to come in the summer. What is your opinion on seasons? Is fall or spring nicer ? February was nice, but almost too warm already. However, I had the best weather during my trip.
