New Zealand receives two million tourists per year, and is the country's biggest 'export' earner. New Zealand is marketed as a "clean, green" adventure playground, with typical destinations being nature areas such as Milford Sound and the Tongariro Crossing, while activities like bungee jumping or whale watching exemplify typical tourist attractions.
The vast majority of tourist arrivals in New Zealand come through Auckland International Airport which handled over eleven million passengers in 2004. Popular destinations include Rotorua, Waitomo Caves, Milford Sound, and Queenstown. Many tourists travel large distances through the country during their stays, typically using coach lines or hire cars.
