Here at Stuff Travel, our team of journalists have been furiously ferreting out Aotearoa’s best hidden gems. We've come across so many activities and places we never knew existed.
Typically, as soon as we report a great place on Stuff, the floodgates open. But subscribe to our newsletter here for a free ticket to ride with our travel team each week as we explore the best of New Zealand.
We’ll tell you about our great finds, before we tell anyone else. And we’ll throw in some great deals, giveaways and advice each week too.
Bon voyage!

If you could ask any historical figure one question, who would it be and what would you ask?

The Ministry of Health had revealed fewer than one in six people who have downloaded the Covid Tracer App are using it daily.
Stuff reporters were outside three different supermarkets in three parts of Auckland on Monday- Ponsonby Countdown, Pak n' Save Lincoln Rd, Henderson and Manukau Pak n' Save.
All up, Stuff reporters saw 81 people sign in at the three supermarkets, out of a total of 432 shoppers.
Do you use the Covid Tracer App?
Why or why not?
For those who don't sign in, is this decision prompted by privacy concerns, or something else?
Would be interested to hear your thoughts.
*Please put NFP if you do not want your comment used by Stuff.
Just an observation, while signing in at least last two times at local Papatoetoe New World a minimum of 5 or 6 people have just walked right in, never used hand sanitizer or if no phone signed the register, as most many years younger than I am, and with phones in their hands this is either … View moreJust an observation, while signing in at least last two times at local Papatoetoe New World a minimum of 5 or 6 people have just walked right in, never used hand sanitizer or if no phone signed the register, as most many years younger than I am, and with phones in their hands this is either ignorance or laziness, obviously no staff available to oversea this like at some other supermarkets, come on Papatoetoe open your eyes, listen to what we are being asked to do to keep all of us safe, not a biggie

This wonderful couple have for the past 5 years
volunteered their time to run a FREE community Soup kitchen at Whare Koa Mangere Community House each week.
Aporo has only recently slowed down due to some health challenges however, he still volunteers as the local driver for the local Cook Island Mamas group helping with their community programmes.
Ngamata continues to run the local Soup Kitchen every Monday and also leads the Tiare Taina Cook Islands Mamas group as Chairperson.
Aporo and Ngamata are both pensioners but they never hesitate to share all they have with others, often at their own expense.
We are so grateful for their serving hearts where they continue to be a blessing to others in our local community.
Thank you Aporo and Ngamata for being heroes to our local people.
We were also privileged on our visit to be graced by the presence of her Majesty Pa Tepaeru Ariki, who was working hard with Aporo and Ngamata in service to her people and local community.
They are our #communityheroes
To nominate any community heroes you know - or a deserving family - please email teesh.beckham@raywhite.com

Kids ask us for attention because they are learning how to navigate the world and build relationships - they need to be able to speak and be listened to so they can learn and grow. Challenge the #outdated rules - it’s time to shake off the old and reveal the new.
