LUXURY NEW ZEALAND HOLIDAYS

AN ADVENTURE PLAYGROUND

For its spectacular scenery alone, a holiday to New Zealand should be on the bucket list.

From the volcanic topography of the North Island to the deep fjords of the South Island, a New Zealand trip is a haven for nature lovers. Explore the ancient Fox and Franz Josef Glaciers with a helicopter tour, embark on a sea kayak trip along the golden beaches of Abel Tasman National Park, or plan a whale-watching cruise and swim with dolphins in the coastal town of Kaikoura. If you’re a real thrill-seeker, head to Queenstown for an array of adrenaline-fuelled adventures such as bungee-jumping, white-water rafting and tandem hang gliding.

New Zealand is also home to some of the world’s finest walking trails. Travel between November and April on your luxury New Zealand holidays, and you can trek (or rather ‘tramp’ as the Kiwis say) for four to five days along the infamous Milford Track, entirely surrounded by some of the most spectacular alpine terrain.

Besides being one of the most beautiful countries on the planet, New Zealand is also rich in culture. On your New Zealand holidays, visit some of the most important Maori sites in the north amidst the island-studded seascapes of the Bay of Islands and learn about Maori history and traditions at the Te Papa Museum in Wellington.

Lovers of great food and wine must visit New Zealand’s world-class restaurants in Wellington and Christchurch, and explore the incredible wine regions, Marlborough and Hawke’s Bay, for an exceptional glass (or two) of the Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir.

For fans of the Lord of the Rings franchise, enter the world of Tolkien and visit the Hobbiton Movie Set in Matamata before driving south through the spectacular film locations from Tongariro National Park to Wellington on your tailor-made New Zealand holidays.

Our holiday in Thailand was superb – custom-built exactly to our preferences.

“FABULOUS FIRST VISIT TO SOUTH AFRICA”
Excellent advice received regarding our first trip to South Africa. We were given very personalised recommendations based on what we hoped to experience during our holiday, and the suggested lodges were absolutely fabulous. All transfers ran like clockwork, with polite and friendly drivers. From the beautifully printed, detailed itinerary to the elegant document case, luggage tags, and the informative app, every detail contributed to a sense of luxurious, premium service.
