Overview

Genuine Kiwi hospitality and a slow-paced lifestyle combine to make New Zealand a serene winter escape.

A country of dramatic scenic contrasts, New Zealand is a place that needs to be savoured slowly. From the white sand beaches and native forests of the North to the majestic fjords and alpine peaks of the South, a visit here is often a once-in-a-lifetime trip that requires careful planning.

The seasons are the complete opposite of ours, making it an excellent warm weather sanctuary during our chilly winter months.

If you’re in the mood for sandy beaches, marlin fishing and swimming with the dolphins, head straight for the Bay of Islands in the North.

Taupo’s breathtaking waterfalls, thermal springs and wide lakes encourage leisurely boat cruises and year-round trout fishing, whilst the balmy Nelson region in the South is perfect for hiking, dining out and exploring local wineries.

Such is the diversity here that to get the most from your holiday we recommend that you combine different destinations, and would welcome the opportunity to create a tailormade itinerary matching your exact requirements.
