This is the must have book for anyone doing NZ on the cheap, although NZ aint that cheap.
If you're doing a driving tour with your 78 year old Mum, you might want to look at something a little more middle of the road, but it worked for Mum & me.
Lot's of detail, but activities seems a bit more geared to the adrenaline junkie, then again, with 2 weeks to TRY and see both islands, I didn't have a lot of time to read the book.
Plan at least a month if you want to see both islands and not wipe yourself out.
Lonely Planet guides are my first choice. South America on a shoestring got me around the whole place, no worries...
Big and heavy. If you're backpacking with a friend, rip it in half and share the load. Just make sure you rip between chapters, not half way through!
Essential travel book January 9, 2007

This latest edition of New Zealand is a very good read. Typically LP, it is really essential when travelling as a backpacker. Because besides all the recommended highlights it has plenty of city maps and the very usefull section getting there and around. But what is absolutely perfect about this guide book is the sense of humour in the texts. It let's you read and travel always with a smile on :-)
An excellent guide - Every step of the way December 18, 2006

I have been to New Zealand 3 times now and have seen the entire country, thanks to this guide which is very complete and very helpful along every step of the journey. Along with the editions before it, Lonely Planet's guide to New Zealand is outstanding and I doubt I would have had such a fullfilling journey without it. I strongly recommend this purchase if you are considering a holiday to the land of the long white cloud. Or even if you are researching the country I can assure you you will find out everything you need to know about the country in this book.
Leaves A Reader More Excited Than Ever To Get To New Zealand! June 3, 2006
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Like other volumes in this series, this book does what I think is a first-rate job of pointing out sites of interest most other guides wouldn't think to include. The Lonely Planet books are not for every traveler but for anyone who wants to leave the more typical tourist locations behind, it is truly valuable. It is loaded with (the usual) practical information a first-time visitor to New Zealand might need and I think it will save A LOT of time and trouble with its helpful tips and suggestions. I am really pumped by this book and found it excellent.
