NEW ZEALAND OVERLAND ADVENTURES

Overlanding is as much about the travel experiences as the places you visit. Overland trips and expeditions offer a unique way to travel and I'll get you to places far from the tourist crowds AND to the must-see places on your bucket list.

The people you travel with become very much part of your experience. There is so much to share and do with your travelling companions and those travelling on the trucks tend to be very like-minded all wanting to share in the excitement of adventure.

From the cosmopolitan vibe of Auckland and verdant hills of the North Island to the icy blue glaciers and mist-veiled fjords of the South Island, visit places beyond the well-worn tourist trails.  While there may be more sheep than people, the friendly Kiwis will make you wish there were more of them

• Soak in hot pools of the luxury spas in the thermal wonder, Rotorua
• Head out to sea in search of playful penguins, seals, whales and dolphins.
• Get a taste of Maori culture with a traditional Te Po banquet and sample the local wine with a tour of Hawke’s Bay vineyard.
• Cruise the deep blue waters of Doubtful Sound in the shadow of towering snow-capped peaks and discover the glistening turquoise waters and golden coastline of Abel Tasman National Park.
• Hike through the volcanic landscape on the Tongariro Crossing and seek out the jagged peaks of Mount Cook.

Whatever it is that draws you to New Zealand, let me take you there.

NEW ZEALAND HAS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE

With 30 years of adventure travel experience, I select operators who deliver the best possible holidays for my clients. I remain independent and have the flexibility to provide you with the best package to suit your specific needs and budget. I search the whole market to find the best deals for every aspect of your trip so that you don’t have to, providing honest and impartial advice.

For every destination I plan, I ask operators for locally owned accommodation and local guides where the route allows, and I follow my Animal Welfare Policy on wildlife experiences. Where a holiday includes flights, it also includes a payment to Sustainable Travel International, a non-profit working to protect vulnerable destinations and the communities who live there. There is no opt-out, and I keep a record of each payment. You can find the Traveller’s Pledge and my full approach on my Responsible Travel page.
