Get Lost in New Zealand: Map/Guide

Over the past decade I’ve been lucky enough to explore some of the most epic corners of New Zealand; always with my camera in hand and often with Taku (my dog) by my side. This guide is my way of giving back to the community that’s supported me along the way.

Inside you’ll find the trails, hidden gems, and wild places I’ve discovered through years of exploring. Not just the “top 10” lists you can find anywhere, but the real experiences that have stuck with me. I’ve poured everything I know into this guide so you can skip the guesswork and head straight to the good stuff.

Whether you’re planning your first adventure here or looking for new spots to fall in love with, my goal is to make this the guide I wish I had when I started exploring. I’m so excited for you to use it, and I hope it helps you create unforgettable memories of your own.

Liam provided us with an absolutely outstanding itinery for our 4 week holiday in NZ. Considering this was a very last minute booking, Liam put together the most epic itinery for us. The sightseeing, the hiking, places to stay and eat were all fantastic. We really felt that we explored NZ and also some very special hidden gems that we would not have found without Liam's guidance. He was extremely helpful from start to finish. I cannot recommend Liam highly enough. Next time we visit NZ we will definately ask Liam for his amazing guidance again. Thank you LIam, it was an experience of a lifetime!

Liam helped us out with a 3 week itinerary for both NZ islands in a camper van. He was super helpful in building the itinerary, taking into account all our preferences, from what kind of activities we wanted to do to what kind of sights we wanted to see, and not only that but he really made the north island shine! On top of it all he had helpful tips for things like where and when to stock up on food, fuel, etc. All the hikes were on point, we loved it. Thanks so much!

I can’t recommend Liam highly enough! He helped us organize our 21-day itinerary in New Zealand and was absolutely incredible. He knows a ton of interesting and off-the-beaten-path places, hikes, where to stay, where to stop, and excursions. Everything he suggested perfectly matched what we were looking for. It’s a real luxury to get direct recommendations from a local who knows the country so so well. Super, super recommendable!

This is the guide we wish we had on our first visit to New Zealand a few years ago! Now that we are planning our return trip, we feel so much more prepared. Liam is so knowledgable and talented, passionately putting together this travel guide that reads like a love letter to his home. It includes epic places, stunning photos, and personal insights that you do not typically find. We are so grateful to feel like we have a friend showing us around. Highly recommend this guide!

Liam’s guide is absolutely amazing! You can really tell how much love and effort he’s put into it. It’s packed with epic hidden gems and spots you’d never find on your own. If you’re looking for places only locals know about, this is your chance! Can’t wait to use this map to plan our South Island adventure.

This has to be the best interactive map I’ve seen for NZ. The images are absolutely stunning and give the user a realistic view of the location. The guide is super helpful in that you can also request further personalised advice from Liam if you need it. I’ve been following @getlostwithliam for over a year now and was stoked to see a map come out because this guy finds hidden gems like no other and he’s super respectful of the environment. Also an incredibly reasonable price , it’s packed with so much value and I can’t wait to use it even more !
