Highlights of New Zealand for Over 50s
Cruise along spectacular fiords and the Bay of Islands on the lookout for wildlife, experience traditional Maori culture, and tour the highlights of the big cities. This New Zealand trip is well worth the long journey.
This tour introduces the dramatic scenery of South and North Island – the snow-capped Southern Alps, fiords, glaciers, natural hot springs and award-winning wine regions. You’ll spend time in laid-back cities, including two nights each in capital city Wellington and the ‘City of Sails’, Auckland. And you’ll finish with three nights in the subtropical Bay of Islands, home to soaring sand dunes and a rugged coastline.
