If you are looking for a gym to use look for the REPs sign (are they a registered facility) and ask if you can try them out for a week. Little things can make a big difference to whether you get the most of a membership and you don’t always see them on a tour. Also see if you can meet up with a few of the Personal Trainers to see if there is one there that would be right for you.

This is where DineOut comes in. Browse or search through the extensive database of restaurants and cafes around New Zealand, and read reviews submitted by other diners. Did they have a great time? Was the service awesome? Food divine? DineOut reviewers are ordinary people who eat out occasionally or even regularly, and DineOut is the forum to allow their experiences to be shared.
