This was a fantastic tour for seeing New Zealand’s diverse landscapes. Paihia’s coastal beauty, Rotorua’s unique geothermal features, and Wellington’s vibrant city life were all highlights for me.

Paihia’s Bay of Islands was stunning, and Rotorua’s thermal landscapes were fascinating. Kaikōura was a perfect finale with its incredible wildlife.

The pace of this tour was ideal. Each stop felt well-planned, and I especially enjoyed the cultural insights in Rotorua and the breathtaking coastal views in Kaikōura.

Paihia’s calm beaches, Rotorua’s bubbling mud pools, and Kaikōura’s dramatic coastline all stood out.

Auckland was a great starting point, and each stop after that got better. Paihia was peaceful, Rotorua was fascinating, and Kaikōura’s whale watching was unforgettable.
