Escape Rooms New Zealand
Escape rooms are real-life games whereby you and your team will be placed in a themed room of your choice. In order to ‘escape’, you are required to go through the process of problem solving and elimination and crack a series of puzzles as well as logical mind games while utilizing a wide array of technology to decipher codes and locks, all the while racing against the clock! Escape Rooms New Zealand is a game that is suited for everyone – the hawk-eyed observer, the intellectual, the motivated enthusiasts and the quick thinkers. Gather your best bunch of friends, your date, family or colleagues and work as a team to escape before your time is up! escaperoomsnewzealand.com

Easy Care Lifestyle With Great Views (Trademe.co.nz Listing #: 1448961273)
Are you wanting a lifestyle property perfect for raising the kids and perhaps a few sheep and chooks, a place out of the crammed suburbs, somewhere quiet and peaceful without too much land that becomes a chore – but yet close enough to shops and civilisation that you don’t have to spend all day in the car?
Then this is the property for you!
After more than 14 years we are selling our bright and spacious family home to make way for new opportunities.
Conveniently located 20-25 minutes from both the Nor’Western Motorway and the Northern Motorway, Silverdale giving easy access to the North Shore, the beautiful beaches of the Whangaparaoa Peninsula and Orewa, or West Auckland, the CBD and further South in the other direction.
Set on approximately an acre of fully-fenced mostly flat land, your new home features 3 double bedrooms (master with ensuite), 2.5 bathrooms, an office and a study nook. The cosy lounge features a woodburner for those cooler winter nights and an efficient heatpump for cooling on a scorching summer day. Bi-fold doors open from the lounge onto a generous deck, perfect for those summer barbecues, and as the evening winds down you can retreat to the home theatre/media room to watch a movie or live sports on the big screen. Stunning rural views from almost every window and an internal access garage with a high stud make this a great opportunity for anyone wanting to escape the over-crowded suburbs for a slice of kiwi paradise.
Selling privately to give better value to potential buyers. No agents please.

1010a Great North Road Full Video
AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT!
Occupying a prime position on Great North Road, in the heart of the central Auckland suburb of Point Chevalier, this alluring two storied home is set back from the road behind electronic gates. Owned for the past 18 years by New Zealand musical legend Jordan Luck and his wife Rita, this beloved family home is a reluctant sale due to a change in circumstances. Ideally located close to the Auckland Zoo and in close proximity to public transport links, the Northern and Southern Motorways, and the friendly local communities of Point Chevalier, Grey Lynn, Ponsonby and Mt Albert, it is a quiet oasis amongst busy city living.
The entry level comprises 1 bedroom and a shared bathroom incorporating a cleverly concealed laundry. The generous master bedroom and an additional double bedroom are located on the second level. Awash with a rich musical history, Jordan's former music studio, offers its own access and would be ideally utilized as an extra room for teenagers, flatmates or to house extra guests.
A dining and living area adjoins the sun drenched kitchen which is equipped with double dish drawers and other modern conveniences. Doors open to a large decked area, inviting the landscape into the living areas. Sit back and enjoy entertaining family and friends with a tranquil backdrop of native trees, matured bush and birdsong.
A myriad of platforms form a circular boardwalk which passes the stream below before looping back up to the main deck. A natural haven for scores of wildlife, you forget suburbia exists right outside the gate, with the exception of some rather vocal zoo inhabitants according to Rita!
This unique property is conveniently located within 5 kilometres from Auckland Central yet it provides a restful escape from the chaos of city living with its serene, peaceful surrounds. A rare gem, this wondrous home offers an enviable suburban lifestyle that the Lucks can certainly vouch for! Call today to view. vicandjemma.co.nz

most beautiful places to visit in NZ
most beautiful places to visit in nz
New Zealand is a stunning country, most people will agree. There’s beauty everywhere and mostly, from nature. There’s an infinity of unbelievable places everywhere you look and, honestly, it’s hard not to feel elated. So we’ve asked for help and now we have a list of the 30 most beautiful places to visit in NZ!
A pin to make your life easier! Hover over the image and click on the red SAVE button to add it to Pinterest!
Since this will be a long list containing all of the most beautiful places in NZ, I’ll divide into North and South Island, each with its 15 top attractions!
most beautiful places to visit in new zealand north island
Most tourists arrive in Auckland – it’s the main airport in NZ – so we’re starting with the North Island. Keep scrolling to see the most stunning New Zealand North Island attractions!
1) lake taupo
We’ve never really spent a lot of time in Taupo, but we crossed it quite a few times over the years. It’s lovely. Below is what Lisa, from Rebellious Tourist says about it:
Lake Taupo has a lot to show off about. It boasts some of the prettiest scenery on the North Island – all green hills and snow-capped peaks reflected in sparkling clear water – and with a surface area about the same size as Singapore, it’s the largest lake in New Zealand.
Unsurprisingly this is one of the most popular places in the country for skydiving, a destination for hiking holidays, and an essential stop on any North Island itinerary. The town of Taupo, on the north side of the lake, is about 3.5 hours’ drive from Auckland and an hour from Rotorua. You’ll have more freedom with a car or campervan, but there are also frequent InterCity buses and backpacker bus tours.
Don’t miss the 10m-high Māori rock carvings at Mine Bay on the northwest side of the lake – reachable only by boat or kayak, they’re said to protect the area from its volcanic underbelly. Next, head to the raging waters of Huka Falls, or Wai-O-Tapu geothermal park – also a must-see – or go on to stunning Tongariro National Park to the south (just keep a close eye on the weather).
The high season here in New Zealand’s summer, especially around Christmas and New Year. I recommend visiting just before or after the local schools’ summer holidays. We were there in early October, and the weather was sunny but crisp, hiking trails and hot springs were busy but not crowded.
2) tongariro national park
Tongariro National Park is one of the 3 Unesco World Heritage Sites in NZ and we love it! It was our starting point for the round-the-world trip. See below what Gábor Kovács, from Surfing the Planet thought about it!
View from the Red Crater in the winter Tongariro Alpine Crossing, New Zealand, by Gábor
There are many beautiful national parks in New Zealand, and while most of the higher mountains are situated in the Southern island, no mountain lover can leave out the Tongariro National Park in the central part of the Northern Island. This natural park is famous for providing the scenery for one of the most famous 1-day walks in the world, the Tongariro Alpine Crossing.
Tongariro National Park is so popular for two reasons. First of all, for the unbelievably varied volcanic scenery you can observe in the park. There are craters and lakes of all sorts of colors there, the Red Crater and the Emerald Lakes are especially picturesque sights. The other reason for the fame of Tongariro is that it represents the scenery for Mordor in the Lord of the Rings movie trilogy, and Mount Ngauruhoe is Mount Doom itself.
The weather in the park is quite tricky even in summer, and in winter you will most definitely need crampons to walk in the park, especially in the higher parts. The entrance to the park is free, but since the walk does not circular, you will need to use a shuttle bus from the Tongariro shuttle car park to Mangatepopo, where the trail starts.
3) wai-o-tapu thermal wonderland
Located in Rotorua, this place is one of the things we’ve never had the chance to visit! Check out what Michael, from The Round The World Guys says!
Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland is a stunning geothermal attraction 27 km south of Rotorua and 53 km north of Taupo via the Thermal Explorer Highway (SH 5). It’s New Zealand’s most colorful geothermal park. Along with Yellowstone National Park in the USA, it’s one of the best examples of geothermal activity in the world. From boiling mud pools to the famous Champagne pool, Devil’s Bath, and Lady Knox Geyser, you’ll leave Wai-O-Tapu knowing you just saw one of the most unique places on Earth.
The best time to visit Wai-O-Tapu is in the least rainy months – so Spring and Autumn are your best choices, especially if you want to get great photos. Admission isn’t exactly cheap. It’s $32.50 NZD

80 People, 1 Room, 3 Girls || 4 days in Tauranga - Part 1
Two gals, chilling Tauranga, 0 feet apart cuz I got none!
There are a few parts that don’t really make much sense without context, so I’m going to put the time on the parts that aren’t explained, and explain it down here instead. This goes for part 2 as well.
10:05 - I stole Will’s M&M’s, and I hid them. So he tried to find them. He also left my bag in the school toilets so I don’t leave him to it. (Spoilers: I hid them behind the white sign).
12:35 - everyone was shouting their favourite game.
12:54 - at 2am, one of the hosts (I think) announced a fortnite dance competition with prizes. Help.
15:01 - all night, will was complaining about him not having enough Coca-Cola to survive. Well then.
(9:02 - I just really want to know who those dudes are. The ones who look like that they’re trying to communicate through gang signs)
