    Tourists continue to flock across the ditch - to New Zealand

    Tourists continue to flock across the ditch - to New Zealand


    Stats NZ figures show more than 260-thousand overseas travellers visited in October - 22-thousand up on the year before.

    More than 120-thousand came from Australia - a record October high.

    Tourism Industry Aotearoa CEO, Rebecca Ingram, says it's cool Aussies are leading the charge.

    She says that's a result of concerted Government, regional and industry efforts to sell the idea of a transtasman holiday.
