How long to stay in New Zealand. The somewhat inaccurate perception of New Zealand being a very long way away also distorts how long people think they 'need' to spend in New Zealand. NZ is an easier journey than to Britain/Europe. The travel time - from the west coast - is the same to New Zealand or to Europe. But the jet lag is amazingly less.
