Active New Zealand – Week-Long North Island Adventure
Paddle, hike and cycle your way round the North Island of New Zealand on this small group adventure tour. See every detail of the spectacular scenery – from the Waitomo caves to the Rotorua thermal pools. This itinerary includes biking through Karangahake Gorge and hiking the Tongariro Crossing — one of the world’s most famous one-day hikes — before jet boats and kayaks provide the transport along the Whanganui River. Mix in some bubbling mud and a traditional hangi dinner, and this is the perfect active introduction to New Zealand.
