Dramatic peaks, glittering glaciers and geothermal wonders await on this 18-day Premium adventure through New Zealand. With a passionate local leader to guide the way, you’ll journey through a landscape shaped by the elements over thousands of years. Begin in the volcanic North Island, where you'll sip your way around wineries on Waiheke Island, explore the mythical world of Hobbiton and tour Te Papa museum with a Maori guide. Then, make your way to the South Island to cruise the calm, quiet waters of Doubtful Sound and hop aboard one of the world’s most scenic train journeys past towering cliffs and glittering mountain lakes.

Inhale the salt air of Waiheke Island, the scent of native forests, the mineral-rich steam of Rotorua, and the crisp alpine air of the Southern Alps. Exhale stress, distraction, and the pace of everyday life. Thoughtfully crafted around nature, culture, and moments of stillness, this is New Zealand at its most restorative.
