Although we are a small country, you will need to allow plenty of time to travel between destinations. The driving times and distances provided allow for the most direct route between locations and are approximate. They allow for variable road conditions, rest stops and fuel stops. Mileage may vary. We recommend you allow additional time for sightseeing, photo opportunities and meal breaks. New Zealand speed limits vary from 30 kph through to 100 kph on the open road. For most trips we suggest you allow for an average speed of 80kph.
