The South Island of New Zealand is so breath-takingly beautiful, so picture perfect that this 9-day escorted tour will seem like a dream. The reality is that as each day unfolds, you will have the opportunity to experience everything from dramatic coastal vistas and tranquil fiords to mountains passes, glittering Alpine glaciers and the soaring majesty of Mt. Cook.
On arrival, relax in the charming atmosphere of Christchurch before boarding the TranzAlpine Rail for a spectacular journey across the island to Greymount on the Tasman Sea. Travel along the coast to Franz Josef, a World Heritage site and marvel at its spectacular glacier before spending many activity-filled days in Queenstown. And, before the tour is over, take part in one of New Zealand’s most iconic journeys crusing through the fiords of Milford Sound.
The wines and the local cuisine of New Zealand will be highlighted as you savour delicious dine-around options as well as full a la carte menus. Incomparable hotels are waiting for you at the end of each exciting day, especially The Hermitage with its fantastic views of Mt. Cook.
