  • We really enjoyed the balance of cycling and hiking and also the less strenuous activities. This was a great way to explore the north coast of the South Island.

    We really want to do this tour in January or February 2025. Do you think that you could add more dates for that timeframe?

      Unfortunately we are only able to offer 15th December and 6th April as alternative dates for this trip. Alternatively, we have confirmed dates for 2026, it would be worth getting in quick as this tour has proven very popular.
