STAY IN STYLE, SNUGGLE INTO A COSY PARKA,
ZIP AWAY TO ROTORUA, AND GET HAPPILY LOST

TRAVEL bites


Love the idea of whizzing
along on a zipline above
native bush? Rotorua Canopy
Tours has added new features
to its ultimate tour. You can
now enjoy the 400m ride in
tandem with a friend, to share
the exhilaration (or fear!). The
zipline has been slowed down,
giving you more time to enjoy
the views ahead of navigating
the cliff-side walkway.

HIGH ON LIFE


KEEP IT COSY

LET’S GET LOST
Would you love to get the
youngsters in your family
looking around at their
surroundings rather than
down at their phones or iPads?
The Getting Lost Game
was designed last year by
Aucklander Cat Macnaughtan,
her husband James and their
three daughters. The idea
is to get out and about
exploring New Zealand in
a “crazy, random way”.
Each game pack contains
26 Misdirection cards (turn left,
follow a blue car, head in the
direction the wind is blowing...)
and 25 Inspiration cards. Cards
are packed in “suitcases” made
locally from plant-based plastic.

N


ew Airbnb Luxe is
a collection of 2000
luxury homes around
the world, each passing a
strict evaluation criteria. Each
Airbnb Luxe booking provides
access to a dedicated, highly-
trained trip designer. After
you book an Airbnb Luxe
property, your trip designer
can help with an effortless
check-in, coordinate bespoke
experiences and activities,

and arrange services from
childcare to private chefs to
in-house massage therapists
and personal training sessions.
Travellers can stay at incredible
places, including award-winning
homes in South Africa, castles
in France and breathtaking villas
in Tuscany. Closer to home,
Te Kahu (pictured), a truly
spectacular house in Wanaka,
is available through Airbnb
Luxe for $3900 a night.

Looking for a
timeless
parka that
will last the
distance?
Macpac’s
Carrington,
$379.99, is
insulated
with a
quality
synthetic
alternative
to down,
making it a
bird-friendly classic to wear
on your travels.

It’s a great family game,
perfect for school holidays
and weekend fun. RRP $34.95,
available at gettinglost.co.nz.
