New Zealand is a fabulous destination, and hugely popular among our clients. While it is a long journey to get there, nearly everyone says it is absolutely worth it! New Zealand is known for its stunning scenery and distinct biodiversity of animal and plant life, attributable to its remoteness and the fact that it was one of the last lands on earth to be settled by humans. The country is situated in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, some 900 miles east of Australia across the Tasman Sea.  It is comprised of two main landmasses – the North Island and the South Island – surrounded by 600 smaller islands.

This video was shot by Ben Schooler on his honeymoon with Liz Couch, and shows New Zealand in all its beauty. Ben is the second cousin of our own Jane Hughes, travel advisor extraordinaire and the office manager at our Joseph-Beth branch. She has been with Avant for 25 years and in the travel business for nearly 40 years!  As you will see, her cousin Ben is a talented amateur videographer. He filmed this video with a DJI Phantom 2 with H3-3D gimbal and a GoPro 3.
