Walking in the Footsteps of ANZACs: New Zealand’s Military Heritage
The ANZAC story is central to New Zealand’s national identity. It represents courage, sacrifice, and the enduring bonds between communities across the globe. At Honour Bound, we believe these stories deserve to be remembered — and experienced.
Our 20-day Military Heritage & Scenic Tour gives travellers the chance to walk in the footsteps of ANZACs and uncover New Zealand’s unique military heritage.
🎖️ Key ANZAC Heritage Sites in New Zealand
While ANZAC commemorations often focus on Gallipoli and Europe, New Zealand itself is filled with sites that tell the story:
Auckland War Memorial Museum — the nation’s centre of remembrance.
National War Memorial, Wellington — a moving site for reflection and ceremony.
RSA Clubs across NZ — where veterans and communities still gather to honour service.
Local cenotaphs and memorials — in every town, honouring those who served.
Each stop on our tour gives travellers time to reflect, connect, and remember.
🏰 Beyond the Memorials: Military Sites with Stories
ANZAC history is also found in the fortresses and defence structures that protected New Zealand during WWII:
Fort Taiaroa on Otago Peninsula
Godley Head coastal defence batteries
Blumine Island gun emplacements
These sites provide insight into how far-reaching the ANZAC legacy really is.
