NEW ZEALAND
Journey
from
the North
to the
Secret South
Known for its spectacular beaches, sprawling national parks and picturesque islands, New Zealand boasts plentiful opportunities for adventurers.
Arriving in Auckland, the first stop on your trip is the Bay of Islands, where your private residence will act as a luxurious base for exploring some of the 144 idyllic islands. Fishing, tracking wild horses by helicopter and picnicking on the famous Ninety Mile Beach will ensure you make the most out of the stunning landscape. Next, you will journey to the Waikato River and stay at Huka Lodge, a riverside retreat renowned for its proximity to some of the best fly-fishing waters in the world. Explore the nearby scenery with guided hiking around Kawakawa Bay, mountain biking experiences in Whakarewarewa Redwood Forest and a cruise around Lake Taupo.
South Island awaits as you fly to Stewart Island on the southern tip of New Zealand, where your expedition yacht awaits, ready to take you on a sweeping tour of the country’s largest national park. Hiking through the rainforest on Stewart Island, you may be lucky enough to spot rare bird species endemic to New Zealand such as the kakapo parrot and yellow-eyed penguin, before kayaking and snorkeling in the impressive marine reserve. Last on your tour is the World Heritage Area of Fjordland, where jagged mountains meet breathtaking fjords and waterfalls spill from expansive rainforests. Marvel at the striking scenery from the comfort of your yacht and discover a place rarely visited by tourists. Join our exhilarating tour of New Zealand’s most picturesque spots and discover a country teeming with natural beauty.

Northland Exploration
During this helicopter experience, fly over spectacular Northland, Whangaroa and Parengarenga Harbours, and discover beautiful beaches, including the famous Ninety Mile Beach, where you can track wild horses running freely on the surrounding grasslands. Taking you along the coastline north of Matauri Bay and onto Cape Reinga, the northernmost point in New Zealand, you will see the point where the Tasman Sea and the mighty Pacific Ocean collide, the splendid isolation of the lighthouse and the location of the Spirit Tree. A delicious picnic lunch featuring the finest local delicacies will be served on a secluded beach to make the day even more memorable.
Mountain Biking in The Redwoods Forest
Rotorua has some of the best mountain biking on the planet, and your exciting excursion begins in the Whakarewarewa Redwood Forest, Rotorua’s premier venue.
