About Cultural Guide In New Zealand

New Zealand has dynamic cultures. They also have a very different and unique culture due to their immense love for sports, adventures, and art. New Zealand has mainly the Maori people residing there who affect the language, culture and art practiced there. The European heritage of the other people living there also affects New Zealand’s culture greatly. Also, New Zealand’s location in the world is remote and for nearly hundreds of years the place was not so easy to reach. The climate of New Zealand remains quite pleasant all throughout the year. Therefore, a lot of tourists come here to spend their vacation. Warm and welcoming people along with beautiful landscape and lots of thigs to do make New Zealand one of the touristy countries in the world. 

Culture

New Zealand has a multicultural society and the people from various parts of the world are welcomed warmly. Racism is something which has very minimal existence in New Zealand as compared to other countries and thus many people from other countries migrate to settle down in New Zealand. Due to the remote location of New Zealand, the people here are self-reliant and do not depend on others for anything. They emphasize on natural environment and do their best to protect it from all situations.

The Maori culture has been very strong throughout the past in New Zealand. The Maori people had distinct tribes, arts, beliefs and way of living life. Role of family is highly valued in the Maori culture. There were gatherings during special occasions and the traditional values included sharing and living in a community. They have immense respect for their elders and family members. This was affected when the Europeans entered New Zealand which caused the New Zealanders to lose their lands, identities, and way of living as well. The Europeans brought along their own culture and working style in New Zealand. When New Zealand became an independent country it became all the more self-sufficient.

Society

New Zealand is often regarded as a classless society since there is a lack of aristocracy and opportunities for the residents there. Also, for quite a long time there was no major difference between the rich and the poor people in the society. In the past few years the gap has widened and increased due to a lot of materialism. Things and goods are being continuously imported into New Zealand leaving no job opportunities for the people there. Artists and musicians struggle to make a living here since there are no platforms to acknowledge their talents. Now New Zealand has started various schemes for the promotion of these artists. New Zealand is soon coming into the picture as many Oscar winning movies such as ‘The Piano’ and high budget movies such as ‘Lord of the Rings’ have been shot here. Also, many award-winning famous writers are from New Zealand such as Katherine Mansfield, Maurice Gee and Austin Mitchell.

Religions

New Zealand has varied religions practiced here. Maoris have their traditional religion which is kind of pagan religion where number of different Gods are worshipped by the people. This religion only governed the lives, society and behavior of the people in New Zealand for many years. With the settlement of Europeans in New Zealand, Christianity crept in. More than half of the people in New Zealand started practicing Christianity and became Christians. There were various other Christian churches there such as Roman Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterians, Baptists, Mormons, Eastern Orthodox, and a few others came into existence.

Many people in New Zealand who did not follow Christianity adopted other religions such as Judaism, Islam, Hinduism and Paganism. However, almost 30 percent of the people in New Zealand do not practice any religion at all.

New Zealand Cultural Facts

The people of New Zealand describe themselves as ‘friendly but reserved’ and ‘open but respectful’. While it may appear confusing as to what it actually means, it is not hard to get along with them. The people of New Zealand are famously known as “Kiwis”. The Kiwis are a lot who love to travel and explore. Kiwis love to share food as they see it as a gesture of mixing with people easily. Be it a picnic or a casual hangout, a  h?ngi (traditional Maori style of cooking) always takes place.

    Ranjitha Toi

    Mumbai

    Ranjitha's 7 days trip to New Zealand

    Travel Triangle helped me plan my honeymoon trip to New Zealand. We were in touch with Raunak, a gem of a person. I gave him an itinerary based on my research and interests (of my husband and I). Raunak included almost all those in our itinerary, booked fantastic hotels, and made great arrangements.
    He had informed the hotels beforehand that it was our honeymoon and so we got cute little surprises in some of the hotels. He also arranged our visas on time, gave phone numbers to coordinate with for hotels/sight-seeing/cabs (we didn't need it because everything was smooth and prompt), and also helped us book our flight tickets. He was available to clarify our doubts. This was a wonderful vacation for us, all thanks to Travel Triangle!

    Priyadarshini Kadam

    India

    Priyadarshini's 16 days trip to New Zealand

    I, Jayant Limaye, aged 63, along with my wife Jyotsna, embarked on a journey to Australia and New Zealand spanning from December 18th to January 29th. We opted for a self-driven tour organized by Wonder Bird Holidays, masterfully curated by their representative, Mr. Raunak. Mr. Raunak ensured meticu
    lous planning, covering every detail, from plane tickets to hotel bookings and internal tour visits. The arrangement was so impeccable that we never had any idle moments, as each destination was thoughtfully designed step by step to eliminate any potential challenges. Right from the outset, Mr. Raunak comprehensively explained every aspect of the tour, including plane timings, vehicle pick-up and drop-off schedules, weather conditions at each location, clothing recommendations, coordination with local tours, their timings, approach locations, and parking conditions. The offered 3-to-4-star hotels were of excellent quality, strategically located in city centers for convenient travel. Mr. Raunak conducted a thorough review of the entire tour, addressing all our queries well before its commencement. He remained consistently available via phone to provide guidance. An instance highlighting his proactive approach occurred during our journey from Wanaka to Mount Cook in New Zealand. Faced with an indefinite road closure, Mr. Raunak promptly informed us and suggested an alternative route, allowing us to reach Mount Cook at 5 PM instead of 1 PM, unlike other travelers who waited in Omarama and arrived at 8:30 PM. We commend Mr. Raunak for his swift and decisive actions on that day. His regular check-ins, inquiries about our location and well-being, and unwavering cooperation compelled us to give him a perfect score of 100 out of 100. Thanks to the exceptional service of the Wonder Bird Holidays team, particularly Mr. Raunak, our tour was not only enjoyable but also hassle-free. For anyone contemplating a trip to Australia and New Zealand, we wholeheartedly recommend Wonder Bird Holidays. Once again, heartfelt thanks to Wonder Bird Holidays and Mr. Raunak for crafting such a beautiful and memorable tour experience. Regards, Jayant Limaye. Jayant Limaye HAD A VERY MEMORABLE AND PLEASANT JOURNEY WITH WANDERBIRD AND TRAVEL TRIANGLE

    Himanshu's 14 days trip to New Zealand

    I am from Hyderabad and had contacted Raunak from Wanderbirds online. At first i was a little hesitant in booking from someone online, but as things went forward i can vouch for this guy. Always available on call and ready to help at every point. I must have called him everyday on my trip to NewZeal
    and for something or the other and the response was quick all the time. The trip was very smooth and every minute detail was taken care of and planned well.

    Ishi's 15 days trip to New Zealand

    This is the 3rd trip that I have booked through Travel Triangle and as always they have delivered on my expectations. The agents that we connected to - WanderBird, helped us to draft a beautiful itinerary and took care of every little detail due to which the trip was extremely smooth without hiccups
    . I highly recommend Travel Triangle to travel without hassles. Every experience in New Zealand was unique and very well crafted by the agents as per our requirements. Some of the highlights of our trip were visiting the Hobbiton movie set, hooker valley trek and Bungy jumping. We thoroughly enjoyed the driving through New Zealand and ending our trip with a short stay in Sydney.

    Delhi

    Bhargav's 14 days trip to New Zealand

    I would like to thank the team of HubHoliday ,Mr.Amit Rana in particular and Mr.Vikas as well, for making our honeymoon trip a wonderful memory for the lifetime.The itinerary was perfect to cover both North and South Island highlights in 10days and was also a mix of romantic & adventure getaways.The
    best memories of the trip are as follows: -Kaituna river rafting -Hobbiton set -Tranz Alpine train from Greymouth to Christchurch -Self drive -Milford sound cruise However,I would like HubHoliday to consider the following points as well in order to improve upon the package offered : - The package cost can be revised as I felt after the trip was over that if I had booked all the hotels/flights/activities/transfers given by HubHoliday all by myself,the package cost would come around 3.25/3.5lakhs in total for 2 persons instead of 4 lakhs - the breakup being : Flights international/domestic and visa : around 1.25 lakhs , car in both islands : 15000 ,hotels : around75000 ,activities :around 1lakh . - The hotel in Christchurch should have been better:room was too clumsy for 2 people Anyways,I would definitely go with the friendly HubHoliday team in near future as well given the interest shown by them to improve further once I gave my feedback to them on the package cost. Regards Bhargav -Kaituna river rafting -Hobbiton set -Tranz Alpine train from Greymouth to Christchurch -Self drive -Milford sound cruise

    Surabhi Gupta

    Delhi

    Surabhi's 10 days trip to New Zealand

    Travel Triangle and hub holidays helped us to plan and customize our tour. We had a really good experience. All the hotels were good. Queens Town properties had a mesmerizing scenic lake and glacier view. We received all the vouchers timely and did not face any issue during our trip. All our hotel
    s were in the central location except for fox glaciar one. We did not have a very good experience with visa however which was done by travel relations. They were not aware of the documents and type of visa and kept bugging us but travel triangle was able to sort it out. Queens town apartments and the view. Glacier helicopter ride Franz joseph Milford cruise and the waterfalls Driving in new Zealand Indian food in new Zealand . It is comparable to indian restaurants.

    Vivek Gupta

    Delhi

    Vivek's 10 days trip to New Zealand

    We booked our New Zealand through travel traingle and hub holidays. Our plan was customised as per our requirements . Hotels, flights, meal, activities , self drive car everything was good. We did not face any issue during our trip. The only set back was Franz Joseph hotel which was 30 mins away fr
    om the main city. Other then that everything was good. We did not have a good experience with the visa team though. They were not aware of all the documents needed and we're not even aware that new Zealand tourist visa is an e visa for Indians, we being in Bangalore had to send them documents couple of time. Also they were rude no customer obsession. The 1 start that I have deducted is solely for travel relations the visa company. At one point we felt we could have done processing for our visa and it would have been much faster. But the experience we had with travel traingle and hub holidays is 5*. New Zealand and it's beauty.
