Overview
Itinerary
Welcome to the adventure capital of the world, Queenstown (Tāhuna)! The next few days are all about keeping your dancing feet happy and your adrenaline levels fully topped up. You ready? Good, because tonight you'll be meeting up with your Trip Manager and fellow NYE party heads! This evening you'll head out for an included dinner at a local spot. Then, we're off to a pre-Rhythm & Alps event with VIP access for your Contiki fam. (D) Stay: Lylo (or similar)
Wake up and get stuck into your included breakfast. Today, you'll head to the Rhythm and Alps Festival but not before stopping for lunch in Wānaka.
Welcome to Rhythm and Alps, AKA New Zealand's finest music festival situated in the oh-so-captivating Cardrona Valley (not far from Wānaka). Get ready to witness some of the best bands and DJs in the world, and party the night away in spectacular fashion. Just remember to save a little energy for the big night ahead tomorrow! (B) Stay: Rhythm & Alps Festival VIP Premium Camping
Oh hello the best day/night of the year. Today you'll be kept busy running between stages, munching down tasty festival food and generally rolling around loving life. And then tonight, the main event - as the clock strikes 12, watch the sky come alive with fireworks, and feel pretty chuffed that you're sharing this moment with all new pals. (B)
Our festival fun has come to an end, and after a hearty breakfast it's time to head back to Queenstown. But not before our stop at legendary Kawarau Bungy Bridge. Get your morning adrenaline hit with a heart pounding jump at the world home of the bungy. Our trip ends on arrival back in the adventure capital of the world - Queenstown. We'll say our sad goodbyes, but this city is now your oyster for the rest of the day. Happy New Year!
