I encourage my friends and family to visit New Zealand in the middle of Winter. The Winter is not that cold, but still a bit chilly. Remember to bring some warm and thick clothes!
The first place you should visit is definitely the natural hot pools in Taupo and Rotorua. The spa's and hot pools are relaxing, and perfect if you just need a break. Some hot pools has some private spa's where you can hire for your family.
Secondly, Snow mountains are a great choice, for example, Mount Ruapehu or skiing feilds. You can learn how to ski, where you can book classes with professional teachers. There are entertaining gondola's that take you to the top of the mountain, where you can get warm in the cafe. The views are amazing, the snow is like a big white blanket stretching over the mountain, perfect for a photo. The children all love the colourful sleds, you can use them to slide down little hills. Overall, Mount Ruapehu is a great attraction to take your kids to!
Lastly, the Moari New Year is celebrated in Winter. In New Zealand, it is a traditional celebration for the Moari New Year. you can learn all about Moari History, as there are many festivals throughout New Zealand.
Winter is a great time of year to visit New Zealand. There are so much to do. New Zealand is also a very lovely and scenic country, I hope that you will enjoy your visit if you come here!
Great suggestions for winter. Good thinking to let people know about Matariki.
