The World Cup finalists are set to begin their tour of England later this week with an opening tour match against Somerset in Taunton.
It will be New Zealand's first game since losing their maiden World Cup final appearance to Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in March.
The Black Caps had their first training today at the Lord's Cricket Ground in London and Taylor said it was time to move on from the World Cup and focus on test cricket again.
"We did have a great six or seven weeks back home and it's probably time to move on a little bit. Get onto a different format. It was an amazing experience and something the guys that were there will never forget.
"It's probably good to get to another country and a different format makes that a lot easier as well.
"England's always a great place to tour and we've had some success over here but it's always tough to play England on their home conditions and we're expecting nothing less."
New Zealand play two tests against England, the first test beginning at Lord's on May 21, but open the tour with two warm-up games which are quickly becoming a rarity in the game.
"The way cricket is structured these days you don't get many warm-ups games in other countries so it's nice to have two warm-up games," Taylor said.
"The conditions are a little bit different so it's nice to just be hitting the red ball and getting into the pace of the longer form of the game."
Following the test series, the Black Caps will then look to build on their recent number three ODI world ranking with a five-match series before one Twenty20 international to finish the tour.
