Can US citizens travel to New Zealand without a visa?

No, US citizens do not require a traditional visa for New Zealand, provided they have a valid NZeTA. The New Zealand eTA is a waiver that allows US nationals to visit the country without having to apply for a visa. The NZeTA for Americans is much quicker and easier to apply for than a visa.
