Highlights

  • Hike sections of the Queen Charlotte Track with a local leader. Weave your way through some of the most beautiful scenery of the South Island and learn about the region’s history.
  • Explore Nelson Lakes National Park as you hike the Mt Robert Circuit. Take in the coastal views over Lake Rotoiti as you walk around the northern face of Pourangahau (Mount Robert).
  • Walk the final part of the Abel Tasman Coast track and look for native birds like fantails and wood pigeons along the way. Maybe rent a kayak or simply relax by the beach in Marahau in your free time.
  • Rest your head each night at your cosy lodge accommodation in the heart of New Zealand’s best National Parks.
  • Take a water taxi through Malborough Sounds – an extensive network of sheltered inlets, clear waters, sandy bays and forested hills at the northern end of the South Island.

    Our guide and itinerary were very good, but accommodations were uneven with the Bealey Quarter Hotel, where the tour began and ended, having substandard accommodations and services.

    Outstanding overview of the entire country. Liked that we stayed most places for 2 nights rather than changing accommodations every night. Provided numerous activities at all locations although some were a bit spendy especially those that included flying i.e. Heli Hikes on Franz Josef Glacier. Hobbiton was a highlight as was Queenstown's 4WD LOTR locations tour. Our guide was well versed on history and Māori culture and shared great insights on both during the travel time we had on the bus. Bus was comfortable and provided great views of the amazing landscape. Well-paced for the number of days included.

    The tour was excellent, a very good itinerary, our tour leader, Adam had a very good knowledge & his commentary on road while driving from one place to another was very good, he stopped at interesting spots for us to spend time, view & take pictures.
