Trekking in New Zealand

New Zealand epitomises contrasting scenery and culture and is an ideal country for adventure travel. Explore both islands as you weave your way through New Zealand on this active trip, visiting all the main highlights and many off-the-beaten-track attractions. Maximise your time in out of the way places and yet still marvel at the iconic destinations. Enjoy true wilderness campsites followed by comfortable lodges. Trek through Jurassic-like rainforest, hike along a glacier, climb up volcanic peaks and enjoy fish and chips on the beach. It is this mix which makes New Zealand extraordinary - it is majestic but down to earth, otherworldly yet reassuringly familiar. A range of activities and glacier walking (optional extra) complement the hikes superbly and keep this tour as diverse and exciting as the landscapes travelled!

We spend 16 nights in hotels, lodges and cabins (some with private bathrooms and some with shared facilities) and two nights in huts/camping with shared facilities. The camping is in a wilderness setting, basic facilities and generally the group is expected to put up and take down their own tents and pitch in with cooking and washing up.



Single rooms are available for 15 nights of this tour for a supplement and must be requested in advance, so please inform us at the time of booking. Private bathrooms are unlikely on nights 2, 3, 8, 10 and 11. Single tents are provided for the camps (the two remaining nights).
