It was one of the greatest trips I’ve been on! New Zealand was beautiful, there is so much to do - the bunjy was incredible. Tash was a super guide and she brought a great atmosphere and warmth to the group.
I had a wonderful time on the tour and it’s a great way to see NZ, the itinerary was well planned to make the most of each town and NZ’s scenery is so spectacular, every day was another jaw dropping moment
Absolutely amazing guides.
Lots of options for free time including free activities in the area.
I loved the group chat and photo circle. Having a daily text to tell you times and plan for the next day worked really well. Would highly recommend but budget for the optional activities because they were amazing

Our overall experience was very positive. We were able to see the things we wanted to see. Some of the travel was long but that is the size of the countries. Would recommend it to others.

Traveling solo doesn’t mean traveling alone—especially on this energizing 25-day "Solo-ish Down-Under" trip. Starting in Auckland and ending in Cairns, you’ll journey the length of New Zealand, from Māori cultural immersion and Kiwi cooking classes to the wild beauty of Franz Josef. Continue to Australia for a 4x4 wildlife adventure on French Island, a deep dive into Indigenous history at Uluru, and time at the Great Barrier Reef’s doorstep.
Tailored for experienced travelers with a moderate activity level, this small group tour offers camaraderie and flexibility, letting you share adventures or carve out solo moments as you please. The USP: a built-in community of fellow explorers and expert guides, ensuring you feel at home—whether you’re hiking, learning, or simply soaking in the spectacular scenery.
