Camping Tours in New Zealand

New Zealand is a paradise for campers - with a huge number of beautiful campsites in stunning locations.

Camping in New Zealand

You can choose between many different campsites in New Zealand.  The most beautiful and best value sites are often those run by the Department of Conservation (DOC).  These sites are usually next to lakes, mountains or the sea.

Most of the 120 campsites have running cold water, toilets and fireplaces. These sites are highly recommended to all nature lovers - following the motto “back to basics”. However, there are also campsites featured with cabins, huts and better facilities (toilets, shower, kitchen & co).

These DOC campsites are in the most beautiful spots in New Zealand. And what could be more beautiful than to be woken up by the sunrise over the mountains and enjoying a tasty breakfast by glacial lakes.  You can find out more here.

For those after a little more luxury there are an excellent range of motor camps and holiday parks. Facilities are generally of a high standard - communal kitchens, dining areas, TV room, cabins and places for campervans with power supply.  You can find more information on some of the most popular locations using the following links -
