If you want to travel Aetearoa New Zealand and you have the time, we do recommend at least 3-4 weeks. This will allow you to truly get to grips with what our beautiful country has to offer you. We have designed our EPIC NZ tour with this in mind, and the route has gradually evolved according to both our tour managers' and our previous groups' feedback.

Starting and ending in Auckland, the tour descends down the middle of the North Island, crosses the Cook Strait at Wellington, and then circles the South Island in a clockwise direction before returning to the North. It is not so much of a tour as a journey, and one that we would like to think opens your eyes to our culture whilst ensuring every day is a fresh adventure to challenge and inspire you.
