NZ Adventure North

Kia ora! Touching down in New Zealand's largest city, We'll meet you at our centrally located hostel to settle in.

This evening you'll meet up with the rest of your travel crew and get excited for all the adventures to come in Aotearoa.

First on the agenda today is getting oriented with the beautiful harbour city of Auckland. We'll then catch a ferry and travel to the beautiful Waiheke island. Don't forget to listen out for the local Kiwi accent to see if it lives up to its title as the 'Worlds Sexiest.'

Wave goodbye to the city as we set off to explore the North Island.

First up we're stopping at Waitomo, home of the world-famous glowworm caves. We'll take a guided tour and explore this labyrinth of underground rivers and watch the resident glowworms do their thing.

This afternoon we tick off another highlight as we head to Hobbiton to wander the real-life lush pastures of the Shire as featured in The Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit trilogies. After exploring the set and learning all about movie magic, we'll enjoy a drink at the Green Dragon Inn before departing for Rotorua.

Waking up to the whiff of sulphur, today you'll definitely know you're in Rotorua! We'll head to the naturally heated waters of Kerosene Creek where you'll get to take a dip, as well as one of New Zealand's most magnificent geothermal wonderlands - Wai o Tapu, featuring dramatic geysers & bubbling mud.

The morning you'll have some free time to maybe try some zorbing or the skyline luge.

This evening we will go to the Mitai Maori village for an authentic introduction to Maori culture! It doesn't get more authentic than this!

Have your cameras ready as we travel to Taupo, a lakefront town in the heart of the North Island.

This afternoon we'll treat you to something special - a sunset sailing trip across the lake. Swoon over spectacular, no-filter-needed scenery as the sky changes colour and the stars set in above the volcanic landscape. NZ, you've stolen our hearts.

This morning we're off on a scenic walk to check out Huka Falls, a goose-bump inducing torrent of crystal water thundering down the Waikato River that you will hear before you see. After witnessing the raw power of Mother Nature, you'll then have some free time when you can do a skydive or a bungee jump!

After travelling back to Auckland we'll help sort out your onward travel for your time in New Zealand. If you've got questions, we've got answers! Want to check out the Bay of Islands or hike the Tongariro Crossing? Let us sort you out.

Tonight we'll get the gang together one more time, dressing sharp for our farewell dinner and night out in the city. Sweet as, bro.

This morning your Northern NZ adventure comes to an end, but this is just the beginning of your time in New Zealand! Prepped and ready for the next leg along with the new friends you've made, we'll be there for support every step of the way.
