New Zealand Hiking Tour

General Information

We can plan an exciting New Zealand hiking tour designed to suit your own special interests, preferences and abilities. Your hiking tour would include places we go to on our scheduled South Island trips, but we can also take you to other special places. A customised guided hiking tour can be easier or more challenging than our scheduled trips and can emphasise either overnight hiking or focus on day walks. Customised hiking tours are run in the same manner as our scheduled hiking tours (e.g. West Coast Wilderness), using the same guides, vehicles, equipment and budget accommodation. This way we retain flexibility to cope with variable weather. Clients are expected to participate in cooking, collecting firewood, pitching tents, washing dishes etc.

Customised Guiding

I would never have seen so many interesting and beautiful places if I was on my own.
I consider myself very lucky to be able to do all 3 trips.

Bladder kelp (a brown seaweed around the South island coast) is the fastest growing plant in the world - it can grow up to 1/2 a metre in a day.
