We immerse you in ever-changing, stunning scenery that continues to amaze throughout your visit. We take you on activities that will challenge and excite you, leaving you breathless and thrilled. Our three week Experience New Zealand tour covers both the North and South Island of New Zealand. This tour can also be split into a 9 day North Island tour and a 14 day South Island tour.

Typical Daykeyboard_double_arrow_up
We start the day with a hearty, cooked breakfast...great fuel for the activities of the day to come. Depending on where we are in the country we then offer you a stunning range of activities that may be as active as swimming with seals or visiting an active volcano, or as tranquil as perusing the national museum, Te Papa. We always have daily options so your personal and specific needs can be met. On our Experience tours, dinner is usually a la carte at some of the finest restaurants. Adventurer tours reflect self-selected dining. This is a great time to reflect on the day and swap stories with your fellow travelers over a glass of excellent local wine. Later that night you will relax in your accommodations, each carefully chosen to reflect the character of the region you are visiting.

Age range, type of groupkeyboard_double_arrow_up
Our guests usually fall into the 30 - 75 age range. Experience tours appeal to the travel connoisseur who are savvy travelers who love intimate interaction with their surroundings but prefer not to deal with the hassles of organising their own trip. They enjoy the good things of life but love to get out and experience things first hand.Great food, great wine, great activities, great locations, great company, and great service are the hallmarks of these all-inclusive tours.
Adventurer tours are for the young and young at heart. Perfect for active travelers who enjoy the convenience, camaraderie and enriched experience of guided, small-group travel. Shorter itineraries, the use of comfortable, mid-range accommodation and self-selected dining, mean one can sample some of New Zealand's best features in a way that fits a variety of travel needs and budgets.
Both love to be enriched with information, culture and history about the country they are in and enjoy the personalized interaction they share with our guides.
