A Chinese reality TV star is pairing up with Tourism New Zealand to encourage overseas tourists against self-driving.
Actor, director, singer, screenwriter and university teacher Huang Lei will be making a short video with Tourism New Zealand and Air New Zealand during a promotional trip to the country.
He is
the star of Dad, Where Are We Going? - which is China's number one show and has been filmed in New Zealand before.
The video will raise awareness about driving conditions in New Zealand and encourage Chinese tourists to think carefully before deciding on a self-drive holiday.
"We know that driving in New Zealand is totally unique and that visitors may be unprepared for what awaits them, particularly in terms of our roads and driving conditions," said Tourism New Zealand CEO Kevin Bowler.
