Lonely Planet's New Zealand Suite

Travel to New Zealand has been steadily increasing year on year. According to Stats NZ, international visitor arrivals reached 3.9 million in the year ending March 2025 - up from 3.4 million in the previous year, resulting in a 15% increase. 

Popular hotspots like Queenstown, Rotorua, and Auckland continue to see rising foot traffic, while off the beaten path regions are also gaining attention since the rise of tourism post-pandemic.
