Day wise Itinerary

  • Day 1 : Arrive Auckland

    Welcome to Auckland, New Zealand’s largest, busiest and most diverse city. Home to almost one third of the country’s population, and the business centre of the nation, it’s not surprising this vibrant metropolis is often mistaken for the country’s capital. Known as the ‘City of Sails’, Auckland is magnificently framed by the stunning waterways, the Hauraki Gulf and Manukau Harbour.

    Easily highlights of the city, the harbour and marina are in walking distance of your accommodation. Distinct in its pace, opportunities and multi-cultural influences, Auckland offers many diverse events, attractions and experiences. Auckland is a popular arrival destination for starting your New Zealand holiday, a fantastic place for a city break or a perfect venue for an unforgettable surfing holiday. Auckland, the “City of Sails”, lies on an extinct volcanic bed and is magnificently framed by geographic wonders – the stunning waterways of the Hauraki Gulf and Manukau Harbour and by native forests.

    From boats and boutiques, to surfing and socialising, Auckland is a marvellous multi-cultural city that offers so very many diverse events, attractions and experiences and is thus a great place for a city break.

  • Day 2 : Auckland - Rotorua

    Travelling Distance: 240 KM
    Travelling Time: approx 3.5 hours

    Travelling south on SH1, the buzz of the city gives way to the more bucolic sights and sounds of the country – farms, market gardens and rivers. There are many interests en route, both urban and rural, vineyards at Te Kauwhata, the historic battle site at Rangiriri, the coal-mining town (and museum) at Huntly and the thermal springs at Waingaro. If time is plentiful and you’re looking for a diversion, there’s the beach at Raglan, known for its perfect surfing conditions, Maungatautari Ecological Island is 15kms from pretty Cambridge, the Mormon temple at Temple View is open to visitors. Taking SH5 at Tirau – known for its fascinating animal-shaped corrugated iron buildings and antique shops – the route travels through the Kaimai-Mamaku Forest Park, over interesting volcanic terrain and leads to Rotorua.

  • Day 3 : At Rotorua

    This day will see you travelling to the fascinating Waimangu Volcanic Valley (20 mins south of Rotorua) – the youngest geothermal valley in the world (formed 1886). Take a hike round this geothermal phenomenon followed by a scenic cruise on a crater lake.

    In the evening immerse yourselves in the outdoor thermal spas overlooking Lake Rotorua and if you really want to treat yourself, try one of the many massage therapies on offer (massage with additional cost). Other options for today: * Visit Rotorua Skyline Gondola to enjoy the views and a drink. * Visit the Rainbow Springs where you can view the Kiwi in its nature. * Visit the Agrodome – to view sheep shearing

  • Day 4 : Rotorua - Tongariro National Park

    Travel Distance: Approx. 184KM
    Travel Time: Approx. 2 & ¾ hours

    Whether you drive on SH30, then SH1 or follow SH5 south towards Taupo, a riveting journey is guaranteed. Traversing this active geothermal area, the volcanic terrain is fascinating and has huge geological appeal. En route look out for the tremendous and unique thermal valleys. Wai-O-Tapu has been active for over 150,000 years and has some remarkable features such as the deep cauldron-like craters bubbling frantically with mud and the coloured pools. Waimangu Volcanic Valley is the world’s newest geothermal system and features both a scenic reserve and a wildlife refuge – walks, cruises and bus trips are available.

    The more secluded Waikite Valley Thermal Pools are equally worth a diversion. Other interesting places to visit include the hydro power station at Atiamuri and the Wairakei Geothermal Power Station further south. For a natural, perhaps ‘raw’, experience of the pure energy of water, make time to visit both the stunning Aratiatia rapids and the Huka Falls where water hurtles down at a rate of more than 220, 000 litres per second.

    Travelling around the largest lake in New Zealand, the wonderful Lake Taupo, and past Turangi, known as the trout capital of the world, SH1 then SH47 leads directly to the volcanic Tongariro National Park.

  • Day 5 : Tongariro - Wellington

    Travel Distance: Approx 340KM
    Travel Time: 5 hours; via SH2

    Approx 6 hours Heading south from Tongariro National Park on SH4 past the Makatote viaduct and then SH49, there’s a picnic opportunity in the Karioi State Forest before Waiouru which is in the heart of army territory – if the military is of interest, the museum is worth a visit. Heading south through broken country past Taihape there is now a choice of directions.

    SH54, SH3 to SH2 travels south through a gorge, past antique-filled Woodville, Masterton and Victorian Greytown – a great place to take refreshment break and browse haute couture made by New Zealand’s top fashion designer, Trelise Cooper – before the route leads to Wellington, 1 & ½ hours away.

    Alternatively, SH1 southbound reveals some unusual gems at Foxton such as the full-sized windmill in the main street or its wonderful Flax stripping museum. The glorious Kapiti Coast has many lovely beaches en route for a quick splash or snack, there are potteries at Te Horo and Waikanae, a superb lookout over Kapiti Island’s rare bird sanctuary; and two great vintage museums: the Southward (Motor) museum at Paraparaumu and the Tramway museum at Paekakariki. SH1 becomes more urban as it finally leads to the country’s capital.

  • Day 6 : Wellington - Picton - Blenheim

    This morning you will catch your ferry across the Cook Strait from Wellington through the spectacular Marlborough Sounds into Picton – the gateway to the south island.

    Pick up your car in Picton ferry terminal and start your southern leg of the trip with some of the finest wineries of the Marlborough region. Stay on a vineyard for the next 2 days and visit the local wineries by bikes from your hosting B&B

  • Day 7 : Blenheim - Marlborough Region

    A day to explore some of the finest wineries of the renown Marlborough region. You can enjoy the day on your bikes – a few wineries are within a short distance from your accommodation. You can also tour the wineries by car and if you prefer joining a guided tour – just let us know.

  • Day 8 : Blenheim to Kaikoura

    Travel Time: Approx 2 &1/2 hours

  • Day 9 : Kaikoura - Christchurch

    Travelling Distance: 185 KM
    Travelling Time: 2 & ½ hours

    Following the glorious east coast south towards Christchurch, this route passes many small beach communities and the wine producing township, Waipara, before crossing the plains into Christchurch. Christchurch city centre is still recovering from the earthquake that hit it on Feb 2011 and parts of the centre are not accessible at this stage (March 2012). Christchurch is considered safe to visit – you will see the city’s gardens, some of the city centre and the aftermath of earthquake if this is of interest to you.

    Your tour can be diverted to skip Christchurch and visit another location further south instead. Please let us know your preferences; we are happy to make any adjustments required.

  • Day 10 : Christchurch - Mount Cook

    Travelling Distance: 332 km Approx 4hours and 50minutes

    Leaving behind the plains of Canterbury; scenic route 72 heads inland offering gentle views of farmlands and shadows the foothills

    This particular drive is one of the most scenic in New Zealand. Vast open plains surrounded by majestic mountains – plenty of photo opportunities along the way. Your destination this day is New Zealand’s highest peak – Mt Cook. There are numerous day walks on offer at he valley, a unique glacial lake cruise, as well as scenic flights over the mountain and surrounding glaciers – breathtaking views! (Additional cost).

  • Day 11 : Mount Cook - Queenstown

    Travelling Distance: 430 KM
    Travel Time: Approx 3 hours

    This day sees you in the adventure capital of the Southern Hemisphere. A myriad of activities are on offer from the adrenalin pumping bungy jumping, shotover jetboat and rafting, Lord of the Rings tour to the more sedate romantic dawn hot air balloon trip – something for everyone.

    The tour included in the package is the award winning Lord of the Rings safari 4WD into back country Skipper’s Canyon through spectacular Lord of the Rings sites.

  • Day 12 : Queenstown

    An adventure playground extraordinaire, Queenstown is both beautiful and bountiful: even the mountain range framing the town is called “The Remarkables”. Add to this Lake Wakatipu and lush forestation, its no wonder Hollywood film-makers frequently visit.

    Home to the first commercial bungy jumping enterprise, Queenstown is known for its many adrenaline-filled activities. Nearby Skipper’s Canyon and Arthur’s point commemorate the discovery of gold in the area. A stunningly beautiful and compact town, walking around Queenstown from eatery to entertainment, from parties to performances is all too easy – and being the unofficial adrenaline capital of New Zealand, you might want to pace out your days! Mountain skiing is immensely popular at Cardrona Alpine Resort, Coronet Peak, The Remarkables and Treble Cone; with cross country skiing at the Waiorau Snow Farm (near Cardrona).

    Other adventure possibilities include jet boating, whitewater rafting, mountain biking, skateboarding, tramping, paragliding, canyon-swinging, sky diving, river surfing and fly fishing! If a calmer pace suits you, Queenstown has a great shopping and commercial scene and there is an equally vibrant night-life. Take in Queenstown’s incredible scenery over a leisurely lunch and a locally produced Pinot noir from, apparently, the world’s southernmost wine region! Bars are a-plenty, whilst there is a constant buzz of street (and indoor) entertainment and live music.

    Queenstown is home to the coal fired steamship, the TSS Earnslaw; hosts an annual International Jazz Festival and a Winter Festival and also makes a great base for exploring the inland lakes (Lake Hawea, Lake Wakatipu, and Lake Wanaka).

  • Day 13 : Queenstown - Milford Sound

    Queenstown – Te Anau Travelling distance 186 km Travelling time: approx 2 ¾ hours Heading away from Queenstown, the Remarkables and Lake Wakatipu on SH6, this route offers stunning scenery and endless photo opportunities. Try spotting the vintage steam train at Kingston, crystal clear reflections in Lake Wakatipu and the many, many deer at Mossburn! Barren, brown and billowing aptly describe the impressive sight of tussocks as this route heads towards Te Anau – choose between the sealed road on SH94 and SH6 or the gravel track to the Mavora Lakes and connecting road to Kinloch (permission and 4WD required).

  • Day 14 : Fiordland National Park

    Fiordland National Park, the largest national park in New Zealand, glistens and enchants. It’s a photographer’s dream – majestic mountains meet pristine water, glacier-cut fiords deceive the eye, native bush clings to the hillside, magnificent lakes sparkle (Manapouri and Te Anau) and well-known tracks beckon walkers such as the Milford, Hollyford, Kepler and Routeburn Track (and others!) which can all be walked full length or in part; guided or unguided.

    Te Anau is a popular base for visitors to Fiordland and it is where you can find the vitally important Fiordland National Park Visitor Centre. Te Anau is also home to the phenomenal glow worms where these wriggly little luminescent worms light up their caves.

    Milford Sound
    European explorers initially overlooked the Sounds because their narrow entries effectively concealed their magnitude – make sure you don’t miss out! Cruise Milford Sound (scenic cruise is approx 1-2 hours duration with multi-lingual commentary; nature cruise is 2-2.5 hours with specialist nature guide on board: available from the Milford Sound Visitor Centre).

    Watch as mountains project vertically out of the crystal clear waters and look out for the kakapo, takahe, seals, dolphins, bellbirds, kea and kiwi. To deepen this memorable experience, there’s also the possibility of an overnight cruise (private cabins or quad share bunk option), ‘flight-seeing’ and even sea kayaking (day or overnight trips) or canoeing for superb close-ups of the glorious scenery.

    The underwater tourist observatory in one of the bays offers a unique perspective of the sounds and their underwater life. For the walkers, the famed Milford Track is an adventure in itself. Starting at the northern end of Lake Te Anau, the track weaves around to Sandfly Point where a short trip by ferry is necessary to return you to the Milford Sound wharf.
    Accommodation at the sound is very limited as most people take day trips.

    Doubtful Sound
    Also overlooked by early explorers such as Captain Cook, the Doubtful Sound was so named due to Cook’s severe misgivings that, if entered, the combination of the narrow entry-way, steep mountainsides and unpredictable wind patterns would put a retreat in doubt. To this day the Doubtful Sound retains its reputation of being rather moody and unpredictable. Isolated and beautiful, the sound can appear full of atmosphere – clear, blue and glorious one minute, dark and foreboding the next.

    Dramatic scenery unveils infront of you whilst cruising on the Doubtful Sound, including the breath-taking sightings of dolphins (Doubtful Sound is home to one of the southernmost population of bottlenose dolphins), fur seals and penguins (Fiordland crested and blue). Occasionally rare large whales such as the humpback or sperm whale can be spotted. Waterfalls are also a frequent highlight, in particular Helena Falls at Deep Cove and the Browne Falls, although during the wet season literally hundreds of waterfalls can be seen – and felt!

    Cruises are available on the Doubtful Sound also with the once-in-a-lifetime option of an overnight cruise; and as with Milford Sound there is the possibility to ‘flight-see’, sea kayak (day or overnight trips) or canoe for a closer inspection of the sound.

  • Day 15 : Milford Sound - Dunedin

    Travel across to the east coast – Dunedin and the Otago Peninsula is your next destination. This afternoon take the opportunity to explore the Peninsula and meet the local wildlife such as the yellow-eyed penguins, the world famous Albatross colony, NZ fur seals and sea lions.

  • Day 16 : Dunedin - Auckland

    End of the tour… Catch a flight from Dunedin to Auckland or Christchurch to connect with your international flight. Have a good flight back home.
