I’ve always thought the Lonely Planet travel guides are great.
See the NZ one here http://shop.lonelyplanet.com/Primary/Product/Destination_Guides/Regional_Guides/Australia_and_the_Pacific/PRD_PRD_3511/New+Zealands+South+Island+Travel+Guide.jsp?ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474395181057&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374302026137&PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524441767574&bmUID=1241777381560&lpaffil=lpcomsearch-shoplinks

I will impart a little secret to you: http://www.goot.co.nz
It’s a travel guide company started by these two guys I know who live on the North Island. It’s got FANTASTIC travel guides for trips around NZ, all detailing little unknown spots that can’t be missed, but may get skipped in those fancy and expensive travel guides. It’s really all you need.
Have fun! I know I did.
