NZ voted best holiday destination in the world

Thursday, 03 Dec, 2007 0

An NZPA report says that New Zealand has been voted the Best Holiday Destination Worldwide by readers of Britain’s Daily Telegraph newspaper.

Tourism Minister Damien O’Connor said the Telegraph Travel Awards were the result of the biggest annual independent survey of the British travelling public, and some 30,000 readers were questioned.

“An award like this is a great accolade for New Zealand and for our hard-working tourism industry,” Mr O’Connor said.

“The United Kingdom, our second largest market for visitor arrivals contributing 300,000 over the past year, is a valued market and one where we have to work hard to stay ahead of the competition.”
