About the trip
This Solo-ish New Zealand tour with G Adventures offers a blend of communal and solitary moments over 13 nights, moving from the North Island to the South. It begins in Auckland with a cooking class before climbing the Mt Eden Summit to catch the city’s layout from above.
The itinerary then takes in Rotorua with its Māori cultural experiences, Lake Rotoiti’s slow cruise to hot springs, and the peculiar charm of Hokitika on the West Coast. Travel further south to Franz Josef Glacier for a trek, and onward to Doubtful Sound for a full-day cruise through fjord scenery.
Queenstown, often thought of as the adventure capital, provides a day to choose your own pace. The group includes a visit to Kaikoura’s seal colony en route. Shared breakfasts, lunches, and dinners encourage camaraderie without obligation, and the company is kept intimate by a maximum of 16 travellers.
