Starting in Auckland and ending in Christchurch, the "New Zealand Uncovered" trip is a guided local culture tour that takes 17 days. You will travel through Twizel, Queenstown, Blenheim and 10 other destinations in New Zealand. "New Zealand Uncovered" is a group trip which includes accommodation in hotels, transport and others.

From north to south, east to west, New Zealand is a country of contrasts. And that’s why we love it. One minute you’re drifting through World Heritage-listed gorges on a Milford Sound/Piopiotahi tour, then next you’re scaling ice on a Franz Josef Glacier/Ka Roimata o Hine Hukatere tour. Sometimes there’s a Maori hangi feast on the menu; at others there’s award-winning wine. Spanning 17 days, two islands and countless attractions – both city and country – this trip to New Zealand is one for the record books.
