— Why we chose
New Zealand Full Immersion
This is the definitive journey, able to tell the full variety of New Zealand. In one great experience you'll find the volcanoes and Māori culture of the North Island and then, after crossing the Cook Strait, the fjords, glaciers and Southern Alps of the South Island. Two very different worlds, united by the same feeling: travelling through a country that seems made to amaze.
