Eco Tours in New Zealand 2024/2025

From the beautiful Franz Josef Glacier to the stunning beaches and national parks of Abel Tasman, eco tours in New Zealand are gaining traction. New Zealand eco tours are designed for travelers looking to explore the country’s abundance of natural beauty all while leaving minimal impact behind, in part by offsetting the carbon impacts as part of the tour package. If you’re looking for a New Zealand eco-adventure tour, you might go white water rafting around Taupo, or surf on the Raglan coast with a local, giving back to the community and staying in a sustainable surf lodge. Whether you’re looking for New Zealand group tours or New Zealand guided tours, there are plenty of options for travelers looking to explore in a sustainable and eco-friendly way.

Check out some of our favorite New Zealand eco tours below.

Trip of a lifetime
5 - Excellent
  • Patricia Morse
“Wonderful experience. It was truly iconic! We met wonderful people, experienced to culture and got to appreciate the diversity of both countries. We hope to return to see even more these beautiful places. We would highly recommend this trip!”
A Wonderful Trip
5 - Excellent
  • Jonalyn
“Geoff is an awesome guy! - and his travel agency. He worked with me to plan this trip over 3 1/2 years ago. Due to COVID it was postponed twice and, as time went on, I made changes and he adapted and re-worked the itinerary excellently. He made great suggestions and listened to my ideas with a great sense of humor and seriousness, booking the perfect Bed & Breakfast Inns in Christchurch and Lake Te Anau and other pristine locations. The tour he booked for me to see Hobbiton was the best choice, including a delicious lunch buffet! There was no hassle over prices, they were very reasonable and kept within my budget.”
Fabulous!
