       New Zealand is a superb destination for golfers and anglers, offering a wonderful variety of golf courses and fishing experiences. HOME AT FIRST will pre-arrange your golf tee-times and fishing adventures throughout New Zealand as part of your itinerary. There is no charge for this service; you pay only the applicable local fees in New Zealand.
       Of course, you may wish to wait until you are in New Zealand and know what the weather will be and what else is competing for your attention before booking any golf dates or fishing excursions. You can wait and make the bookings yourselves or with the assistance of your New Zealand hosts—at no charge for the service.

     "I have suddenly become a PR person for New Zealandand Home At First. We had a trip we will remember for many years."                                                                —W. & V. Thompson, Arizona

     "We ate good food. Read six books. Played golf. Learned more about drinking good wine with a good meal. We stumbled onto a small sheep shearing contest—no tourists, just a community activity. We watched both a cattle round-up and a sheep round-up."                                                                                      —Gary & Ru N., Colorado

        New Zealand offers a wealth of activities of all kinds. You may want to build some organized multi-day (and overnight) activities— like an organized hike on the famous Tongariro, Queen Charlotte, Abel Tasman, Heaphy, Milford, Routeburn, or Hollyford Tracks—into your New Zealand itinerary in advance of your trip. You can make these arrangements independently, or make them through HOME AT FIRST. Remember—any days you add to your New Zealand itinerary that do not use HOME AT FIRST lodgings and rental cars do not count toward our minimum 14-day lodging requirement.

        Single-day activities—there are thousands, from swimming with dolphins in Northland, to Fox Glacier heli-hiking, to cruising Milford Sound in Fiordland—can be booked through HOME AT FIRST in advance of your trip as a fixed part of your itinerary. However because few of these activities require more than 24 hours advance booking, in most cases you will want to wait until you are in New Zealand and know the weather and your other activity choices before deciding to make an activity booking. At that time you can make your own bookings or enlist the assistance of your local New Zealand hosts, who do not charge for such service.
