When you are idly wondering how you'll spend Christmas this year, consider leaving home for a few days to explore another part of New Zealand with a group of like-minded travellers.
Three tours, each lasting four days, leave from Auckland just before Christmas Day and return on or after Boxing Day.
A fourth tour takes you out of the city to celebrate the arrival of the New Year in the Far North on 90-mile Beach.
You can choose to spend Christmas Day in New Plymouth on a Christmas Lights journey, or in Taupo and at the Chateau at Mt Ruapehu, or head to the Kaipara and Hokianga Harbours, and have Christmas dinner in Dargaville.
The tours, made by coach and train, range in price from $649 to $789 a person, twin-share, and single supplements range from $120 to $150.
