Explore the narrow strip of South Island land sandwiched between the mountains and the Tasman Sea that’s home to some of the country’s most beautiful places. Millions of years of natural history are right in front of you in wild limestone rock formations, powerful glaciers, rushing rivers and surf pounded coast, while the much more recent stories of the gold and coal rush can be found in the heritage settlements and in the resolute spirit of the coasters. Take in highlights from Christchurch to Queenstown, Pancake Rocks to craft gin, kayaking to spa soaking. This is a coastal road trip to rival any other.

The trip was amazing. Saw so many places and met lots of lovely people.
The tour has long days as you have to cover great distances some days but it is worth it for the varied landscapes and experiences that are on offer.
Taking a camel ride along cable beach at sunset. Walking on shell beach, seeing dolphins, turtles, rays and incredible wildlife. Snorkelling, swimming in fern pool in Dale Gorge, walking among the pinnacles and finishing the tour with an entertaining talk by Derek an aboriginal.
Carolyn. Tour director had so much knowledge to impart and took us to some incredible places. Terry the driver was amazing and kept us on the road and topped up with water. Nothing was too much for them.
The accommodation varied, from luxury to a miner’s cabin but they were all clean and did the job. Remember we were at times in very remote areas and there is not a lot of choice. Embrace the experience.
Would recommend taking the tour if you want to experience Western Australia.
I had never participated in an organised tour like this and can now say I'd definitely do it again. Especially with AAT Kings. They are so professional and accommodating to all travellers needs. They ensured our experience was absolutely fantastic. In fact, I plan on joining them again for their 15 day Adelaide to Darwin tour. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Great trip. The guide was great, the driver did a great job and the people themselves were friendly and accommodating. The first picture below is with the guide Chantzee after we walked up "the steepest street in the world" in Dunedin, Baldwin street, the second is of Milford Sound.

Condensing Tasmania’s East Coast highlights into a week is no mean feat. We’ve managed to unite most on this perspective-changing journey taking in wilderness areas, World Heritage listed historic sites and cosmopolitan cities. Tours to Tasmania (from Launceston to Hobart) don’t get much better than this – strap in for a Wineglass Bay cruise, Port Arthur guided tour and epic Freycinet adventure.
This adventure may be short, but it’s certainly sweet. Think of it as a travel amuse bouche – a taster to inspire further trips to New Zealand. In just 4 days on this NZ holiday you pack in a lot of attractions, from Auckland’s windswept harbour, dotted with yacht sails, to the gem-like Bay of Islands, its archipelago of subtropical islets ideally explored on a cruise. Wherever this NZ tour takes you, expect a dose of heritage and Māori culture. Discover how and where New Zealand became a member of the Commonwealth and explore the streets of the country’s first European settlement and seaport.
