This video is created for travelers planning a package tour to New Zealand. I compare package courses from three major Korean travel agencies and explain why most itineraries are inevitably similar due to the local land operator structure. Based on my four visits to New Zealand and experience living in Rotorua for two months, I provide information on key destinations included in package tours as well as vivid personal stories not found in guidebooks. From the geothermal areas of Rotorua to the activities in Queenstown and the majestic nature of Milford Sound, I cover the key highlights of both the North and South Islands. Beyond simple sightseeing introductions, I also share in-depth humanities knowledge to help you understand New Zealand better, including its unique geography formed by tectonic collisions, the history of biculturalism coexisting with the Maori people, and recent demographic changes.
