New Zealand from Southern Alps to Bay of Islands

From bubbling geysers and yawning gorges to gem-like glaciers and mirror-still lakes, New Zealand punches well above its weight. Add snow-tipped mountains, subtropical islands and cities and towns with plenty of personality and you’ve got two islands packed with variety. You’ll also feel Māori culture woven through the journey, from stories and traditions to powerful performances. Make no mistake – this journey from south to north is the ultimate New Zealand tour. Magic is an understatement. This trip is accompanied by a Travel Director and Driver.
