Flight time.
Traveling from Auckland to Spain or Portugal takes around 24 hours, typically with a stopover. The journey is long, but the vibrant cultures and stunning landscapes make it worth the effort.
These two euro neighbours will captivate your heart with the romance of the Spanish and Portuguese languages, the friendly, passionate people, the Mediterranean climate, culinary delights, unique history, architecture and landscapes. Stay in a Paradore in Spain and explore the Mediterranean coastline, then head over the Spanish plains to the mountain chains. Discover wonderful Moorish palaces, castles, heritage sites, Roman ruins and national parks. Join one of their many crazy festivals and learn the flamenco. From Spain, travel through Portugal’s charming medieval towns, past too many castles to count, devouring port wine and Pastel de natas on the way to the Atlantic Ocean. Take your pick of sandy beaches, where the sun shines 300 days a year as you wind on down to the exquisite Algarve.

Having visited 32 countries
(and counting!), I’ve been lucky enough to turn my passion of exploring the
world into a career helping others do the same. I specialise in travel across
Australia, the Pacific Islands, Cruises, and bring a wealth of knowledge from a
six-month backpacking adventure across Europe that gave me first hand insight
into travelling on and off the beaten track.
Whether you’re planning a family holiday, a romantic getaway, or a once in a
lifetime adventure, I’ll take care of every detail so that you can relax and
enjoy the journey. Your travel will be made easy, memorable, and be perfectly
suited to you.
Some of my most memorable experiences include hot air ballooning over the
desert in Dubai, island hopping along Croatia’s stunning coastline, and
something a little closer to home - Fiji! - A destination every Kiwi should
experience at least once.

Traveling from Auckland to Spain or Portugal takes around 24 hours, typically with a stopover. The journey is long, but the vibrant cultures and stunning landscapes make it worth the effort.
The best times to visit Spain and Portugal are during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October). These seasons provide mild weather, perfect for exploring the cities and countryside.
Spain and Portugal are 10 hours behind New Zealand, so plan for a noticeable time difference.
