Akaroa County

Akaroa is a small town on Banks Peninsula in the Canterbury region of the South Island of New Zealand, situated within a harbour of the same name. The name Akaroa is Kāi Tahu Māori for "Long Harbour", which would be spelled "Whangaroa" in standard Māori.

It is set on sheltered harbour and is overlooked and surrounded by the remnants of a miocene volcano. Akaroa is a popular resort town and in summer the temporary population can reach 15,000 which places stress on the summer water supply, which is entirely dependent upon rainfall on the hills.

Jessica made my short stay in Ireland quite stress-free and enjoyable!

I want to express how easy and smooth my experience was when booking my vacation with Jessica. She took care of every little thing. She was very experienced with booking the flight and hotel, and she was very knowledgeable about what to do when you get to your destination. I pretty much had my days filled with excursions, she advised. Jessica made my short stay in Ireland quite stress-free and enjoyable, and got the most out of my 5-day stay....
