A true haven for thrill seekers, set amongst jaw dropping surroundings
Discover the remote beauty of this incredible country and explore some of the most spectacular backdrops on earthMatching its southern sister in terms of natural beauty, the North Island of New Zealand is home to some spectacular scenery and extraordinary sites all of its own.
With its rugged mountains, magnificent glaciers and sweeping landscapes of forests and lakes, you could hardly wish for a more picture-perfect location for a luxury holiday than South Island.
From the awe-inspiring beauty of its national parks to the warm, welcoming nature of its people, it’s not hard to see why New Zealand is such a well-loved holiday destination. Bigger than the UK but with a population of under five million, this peaceful, picturesque country offers an alluring combination of relaxation and adventure.
Highlights
Our luxury holidays in New Zealand offer truly stunning and diverse scenery. Bask in the beauty of everything from tranquil fiords, meandering rivers and sandy beaches to imposing, snow-capped mountains, magnificent volcanoes and icy glaciers. Take a helicopter flight to enjoy aerial views of the Marine Volcano, or to see the undulating Southern Alps. You can also visit the country’s natural hot springs and dramatic shooting geysers.
Reconnect with nature on your holiday with some whale and dolphin watching off the coast. Kaikoura is the perfect place to view these majestic sea creatures, and it’s possible to see them by boat, helicopter or fixed-wing aircraft. You can even take the opportunity to swim with dusky dolphins.
Famed for its delicious fresh produce, including some of the world’s finest organic foods, New Zealand is also a food lover’s paradise. Tuck into beef from the Waikato, freshly landed seafood and fruit picked in the Bay of Plenty. There are plenty of mouthwatering wines to sample too. Considered by many to produce the best ‘New World’ wines of any country, New Zealand is dotted with beautiful vineyards. The north is known for its Syrah and Bordeaux style blends, while Riesling and Pinot Noir are grown in the south.
You can immerse yourself in the rich culture of this enchanting holiday destination too. Māori traditions help to give the country a unique character. From performances of song and dance, to hangi feasts prepared in earth ovens, to sculptures made of bone, shell and stone, the Māori culture remains very much a part of New Zealand’s identity. Meanwhile, Auckland, which has been rated the third most liveable city in the world, boasts an abundance of museums and art galleries, and it has a vibrant café and restaurant scene.
The country is also a mecca for thrill-seekers. Offering windsurfing, white water rafting, mountain biking, bungee jumping, heli skiing and much more besides, it’s a popular place among those looking for an adrenaline fix.
