New Zealand North Island Adventure

About this trip

See all the North Island highlights on this week-long adventure – geothermal landscapes and Maori culture – and travel, too, along the backroads and see a different side. Cruise Ohiwa Harbour and shuck oysters at a Maori-owned and operated oyster farm. In Rotorua, receive a traditional welcome at an Ohinemutu marae, then maybe go whitewater rafting or soak in a warm mineral pool. Follow the curves of the Forgotten World Highway to the famously independent Republic of Whangamomona. Hike on the perfectly conical volcano, Mt Taranaki, then head underground in Waikato to see glowworms and fossils. And, you’ll see it all with a trusty local leader by your side, every step of the way.
