North Island Sampler:
The Five-Day Tour

First-time visitors to New Zealand often think of a few days' tour of the country, taking a sampling, as it were, of the country's myriad offerings. You won't see much of the North Island in less than a week but you could see enough variety and contrasts in, for instance, a five-day tour.
