Good General Map Of New Zealand 04 April, 2008 This map shows New Zealand as a whole with a few little inset maps of the larger towns and cities but it doesn't give any great detail for anything but the main roads.

Ok, But In Nz, Bigger Is Better 06 October, 2008 My wife and I drive our vacations, taking in the sights in foreign lands. Driving in New Zealand is a challenge no matter what, and doing so with a marginal map adds problems. Vistas can be breathtaking, but the roads wind and snake incessantly, and in the NZ countryside (most of the country) you are well served to take little detours to see more of the country's charms. This map is good and was about the best I could find online. It gave a leg up in planning my journey at home.
My Aussie friends, who we met and traveled with, showed up with a spiral-bound map. Despite its heft, the detail on his put this one to shame. In fact, in the two weeks we drove the country, I was ever thankful he had his detailed map, as it saved us lots of time by putting drives in proper perspective, aiming us in the right direction, and showing subtleties that my map lacked. Further, my map did not do justice to the driving pace you are faced with throughout the country. Looking at this map, you have no appreciation for the extra time needed to wend your way past successive eye-popping vistas on that winding road through the mountains. Where that 200 km drive looks like you can do it in 2+ hours, in fact you are fortunate to do it in 5. This map fails in that, whereas a larger map provides better insight. While it provided a reasonable perspective in the planning stages, the spiral-bound map proved its value once we hit the road, and in NZ is by far the way to go. Now if I can only remember who manufactured it...

Una 12 July, 2007 I travel internationally a few times a year and do my own travel plan of such areas. So far,this map is the most detailed for land/car travel that I've used.
