Autumn in New Zealand3

The Ultimate New Zealand Experience

Combine any of our tours across the North, South and Stewart Islands for the ultimate New Zealand adventure! 

From the pristine white sand beaches and bubbling geothermal landscape of the North Island, to the snow-capped alpine peaks of the South Island and the pristine forests of Stewart Island, New Zealand is a land of diverse scenery and unique experiences. 

Our guests typically join us on one of our 14-day South Island trips and then add on either a North Island or a Stewart Island trip. If you’ve got more time on your hands and you’re keen to delve deeper, then a 14-day South Island trip combined with our Stewart Island trip and one of our North Island trips is the ultimate New Zealand adventure.  

All of our trips can be combined together. You can read more about New Zealand’s three islands and explore our most popular trip combinations below. If you’re still not sure, you can give us a call and Jodi can help you plan your ultimate New Zealand adventure. 

South Island 

The South Island is an island of huge diversity that is famous for its turquoise glacial lakes, snow-capped mountains, towering fiords and tumbling waterfalls. Nine of our fourteen national parks are located on the South Island along with some of the best hiking trails in the world including the Milford, Routeburn and Abel Tasman tracks. Here you’ll find our most iconic landmarks including Milford Sound, the Southern Alps mountain range which is home to our highest peak Aoraki/Mt Cook, and the West Coast Glaciers.   

Explore the South Island on our Masterpiece, Grand Explorer, Kiwi Classic and Pure South trips 

North Island

The North Island is the cultural heart of New Zealand and home to a world of bubbling geothermal activity, lush subtropical rainforest and moonlike volcanic landscapes. It is the home of the best day walk in the world, The Tongariro Crossing, and is the best place to experience our indigenous Maori culture. 

Explore the North Island on our Sweet North and the New Zealand Great Walk Adventure – North trips.

Stewart Island 

Like stepping back to a simpler time, exploring Stewart Island is travel like it used to be. Located just 30km off the bottom of the South Island, Stewart Island is an untouched haven of native wildlife, lush forest and secluded beach coves, and it’s the best place to see Kiwi birds in the wild. With a permanent population of just over 400 inhabitants, Stewart Island is one of New Zealand’s great hidden gems and as it’s relatively unknown, it is truly off-the-beaten track.
