Discover New Zealand

We spend 16 nights in hotels and one night aboard a cruise boat. Accommodation on this trip uses a mixture of characterful motels and welcoming hotels, some of which offer spectacular views. Single rooms are available for a supplement (on request), this covers all nights apart from the one evening on the Milford Mariner boat.



Please advise your sales representative at the time of booking if you would like to request a single supplement.
