Hamilton is New Zealand's fourth-largest metropolitan area and largest inland city. Not only is the city the centre of Waikato, one of the world best agricultural regions, but it is also the centre of New Zealand's dairy industry.

Te Whare Taonga o Waikato (Waikato Museum of Art and History) is situated on the banks of the Waikato River, and features changing exhibitions presented from its large collections of New Zealand art, Tainui Maaori taonga and Waikato History. Adjoining the Museum is the popular Museum Café, the Exscite hands-on science centre, and the ArtsPost art gallery.

Hamilton Zoo is home to over 400 exotic and native birds, mammals and reptiles, displayed in natural surroundings. The FreeFlight Sanctuary is one of New Zealand's premier environmental attractions providing a huge flight space for many rare and endangered native birds.

Hamilton Gardens is possibly the region's most popular visitor attraction. Here, you can relax in a shady world of lakes, flowers and pavilions. The magnificent themed gardens include the Japanese, Chinese, English, American Post-Modernist and Italian Renaissance gardens.

The Waitomo Glowworm Caves are an underground labyrinth of ancient limestone caverns and formations, decorated with tiny living lights. Main attractions include the Cathedral Cave, a huge cavern with fantastic natural acoustics, and the world famous Glowworm Grotto, which sparkles with the lights of glowworms.

An hour away by car, Auckland boasts a stunning location sandwiched between two great bays where the Pacific Ocean and Tasman Sea come within 14 kilometres of each other. The Te Papa Whakahiku (museum) is the place to learn about the country's history through the unique Maori culture. Additionally, the America's Cup yacht basin and waterfront precinct has become the new focus of the city, and includes a redeveloped entertainment area, yachts and the Maritime Museum.

Hamilton is located on (north-south) State Highway 1 (SH1). The Tranz Scenic trains, Northerner and Overlander, pass through Hamilton on the route between Auckland and Wellington. Both InterCity and Newmans buses link Hamilton to other major centres. Air New Zealand National and Link plus Origin Pacific provide daily service to Hamilton Airport. The airport is 15 minutes south of Hamilton, and shuttle services are provided by Roadcat Transport and Airport Shuttle.
