This page is dedicated to inform the visitors to New Zealand about our environment and at the same time giving you tips on how to act and behave in our beautiful country.
1) Make sure you are wearing clean shoes when arriving at Auckland airport. Tiny little organisms that you might bring with you can cause terrible diseases to our fauna and flora. Clean shoes will help to make your way through immigration faster!
2) Do not bring any food with you. Fail to declare it results on a NZ$ 200 instant fine.
3) New Zealand possesses a unique and fragile environment. Therefore is our policy to ensure that our groups of tourists do not go off the main path on bush walks disturbing the wildlife. And at the beach we also ensure they do not disturb the sand dunes.
In the same context we also ask our groups not to pick plants during bush tours and damage native species.
4) In New Zealand is safe to drink tap water. Therefore we recommend you buying your first bottle and then refilling it. This way you are not only saving money but also helping the environment!
5) NZBR Tours is taking recycling seriously. We encourage our groups of tourists to recycle when is possible. If for any reason recycling facilities are not available we keep all the rubbish in our vehicles to dispose off appropriately at the end of the day.
6) Renting a car? Why not making sure that you have the right air pressure in all the tires? This will save you up to 10% in fuel costs and also helps the environment!
7) Going fishing? Fishing is one of New Zealand's most popular recreational activities and therefore it is important for all fishers to act responsibly and help conserve the resource. There are five Fishery Management Areas in New Zealand, each with different rules. Please visit this site for more information.
