Create a Visitor Listing

You know the spots that make your backyard special. Add them to Tripplanner.nz for free to show visitors the real New Zealand and bring them to where you and your business are.

Why List Local Attractions?

Put your business in visitors’ sights by listing attractions that bring them to you. It costs nothing, takes a few minutes, and helps put your whole region on the map — not just your business.

Travellers don’t plan their trip around where they’ll eat or sleep — they’re searching for the walk with the best view, the beach where locals actually swim, the little museum that’s easy to miss.

That’s exactly the local knowledge you already have. By listing the free attractions near your business you help travellers discover the real character of your area. And because your business sits right next to that experience, you become part of the story they’re planning around.

A large, natural limestone rock archway frames a scenic view of a sandy beach and turquoise ocean water at Cathedral Cove. In the calm sea under a clear blue sky, a prominent, tall rock formation stands near the shore.

How Does It Work?

Adding a free local attraction is just as easy as listing your business — just show and tell what makes the spot special and it’s published immediately. You can also become a “Contributor” and link to other work if you wish.

Choose it

Think about the places that you'd tell a friend to see. A beach, a bush walk, a viewpoint, a heritage site — if it's good for visitors, it belongs on the map.

list it

Add a name, a description, and at least a couple of great photos. Pin the exact location so visitors can find it easily — including how close it is to your business.

share it

Your local gem is published immediately on Tripplanner.nz's map, helping travellers build their route — along with your business when you list it.

What Makes a Great Attraction Listing?

A few small details make the difference between a listing that gets clicked past and one that gets visited.

    • Use your own photos and your own words — it’s obvious if a place is genuine and worth the detour
    • Write a helful, honest description: what’s there, what it’s like, and why it’s worth stopping
    • Pin the accurate location, including parking or access notes if they’re not obvious
    • Mention practical details like walk time, dog-friendliness or accessibility. Add a trail map if you wish
    • Note what’s nearby — including your own business, if it makes sense for visitors passing through

Any free, publicly accessible attraction — swimming spots, walking tracks, lookouts, playgrounds, heritage sites, gardens, reserves, and other places worth a visitor's time.
